Just list the first game you can remember playing, and how long you played it for if you can remember.

Mine was Diablo II when I was about five and I'll still give it a run every now and again if i feel like it. Not sure what that says about my parents that they let me play that when I was five though. Not sure exactly what it was rated, but fairly sure it wasn't G.

I'm sure I played games before it but the one that stuck with me were the first Tomb Raider games.
I would watch my dad play it and help him by reading a strategy guide, and he would sometimes let me take control.

Sonic the Hedgehog.


Ah memories.

My fondess for the Mega Drive (Genesis) series has made buy the Sonic Classic Collection on the DS.

Sonic 1, 2, 3 & Knuckles, as well as the lock on feature, means I get all the childhood nostaliga I could hope for, anywhere I want.

Some target shooting thing on a pre-DOS computer that didn't even have a mouse and only had a yellow and black screen. A cursor would move randomly over a target, and when you hit the spacebar you 'fired' your shot. After every shot the cursor moved faster and faster.

Played it on my dad's lap when I was just a toddler. Hah, if he would've known what would come out of it, I doubt he'd ever showed it to me.

Super Mario Bros on the NES.

I know I played games on the Atari and coleco, but I don't remember which... so it has to go to Mario.

Heretic, when I was 4 :3 Sometimes I would co-op with my dad, but my best memory of it was opening a door and having an Iron Lich on the other side right up in my face.

...Followed by me shrieking "It's the tornado guy!" and running like a ninny while it blasted me.
