The game that made you the gamer you are today,and the first game you ever played

[_Hellsboy_]

A hint of nostalgia in the eyes,

And the beauty of those good old 16 bit games,

Let the memories of mario and islander rise,

Its time to remember the good old days.

 

We all have started at some point.So lets post our first games ever and the game which got you truly addicted.Here are mine

 

First game EVA

my first game was super mario bros on NES..

 

used to play it all the time with my dad

[The JACKAL]

well i ve played a lot of games since i was only 4 years old. But my first competitive game which i was very good at was UT2003, I was the runners up for the WCG bangalore prelimanaries. But lost at the very end, it was a 1-1 in RANKIN, sh*t i always hated that map. Anyway if i had won that one game i wouldve been qualified for the preliminaries in MUMBAI and then perhaps even SEOUL SOUTH KOREA

first game played - pong (i used to own an actual pong tv game machine)

 

games that had me completely hooked (before i called myself a 'gamer') - river raid (atari 2600), impossible mission (c64), daley thompson's decathlon (zx spectrum) - used to play these for hours on end...

i started on a commodore64 back in '85

Some games were defender, impossible mission, pac man, raid over moscow, spy vs spy, the last ninja, the last v8, f1 and hundreds more

then came a PC XT with jumpman, alley cat, jungle man, moon patrol, moon bugs

Then a Pentium with all the goodies released on PC Quest cds every month like hyperblade, daggerfall

the rest is history

I thought this thread said "gamer", not "gramps".

Do you still have any of those machines lying around?

Started with Bricks / Digger / Zaxxon

 

Hooked on Quest for Glory, Doom made my eyes water I played so long, and Diablo II took my sleep

 

Between Thief and Diablo II I don't know which took up more of my time
