First game you can remember playing

[Norix596]

Pokemon Red - being frustrated that old man wouldn't let me walk by.

I guess the first game i plaed was Pacman on an arcade machine. My first console game was Sonic The Hedgehog!

 

[War Penguin]

The first game I remember playing was Myst. I was about six or seven, and my dad showed it to me after being shown by his friend. I remember solving the puzzles together and taking notes once I got older. We never did beat it, mainly because we lost the disk. However, I've recently found it again, so I think I might try it out sometime (if my computer permits me so).

I have no clue what that says about me and my gaming tastes, though.

Way back when I was 3 my dad showed me his shiny N64. I played LoZ: OOT and Goldeneye, though I'm not sure which I played first. Aaaah the lengths I have traveled since then...

 

[Hemlet]

My first game might have been the original Metroid on the NES. Either that or Kirby's Adventure. I managed to beat Kirby's Adventure back then, but Metroid kicked my ass up and down the room. Good times.

 

[Tyran107]

God you people make me feel so old. First game I remember playing is Beach Head II for the C64

 

[Boom129]

rayman 2
I loved it soooooo

 

[Bobster]

The first ever Mario game(Yes the 8-bit one) Or Pokemon Red, not too sure which one I played first.

 

[Airsoftslayer93]

Less of a game and more of a game creation tool, it was used to make your own text adventures, i was terrible at it. either that or ranmdomly clicking squares on minesweeper, didnt ever 'get' it

 

[Dirzzit]

Age of empires: Age of kings.

 

[crimson sickle2]

Mario Bro.s on the NES, the one with duck hunt on the cartridge too. I played that a lot.

 

[GeneticallyModifiedDucks]

The original Prince of Persia when I was 4. I remember trying to finish it with my dad on his old Amiga (it might have been a Commodore, I'm not sure). Good times.

 

[Nihilm]

Crash Bandicoot (PS1)

The very first game, before they ruined it by making lame games, first 3 crash games ftw!

 

[scorptatious]

Either 2Xtreme or Crash Bandicoot 2. It was definitely one of those games.

 

[bulbasaur765]

A vague memory between Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

 

[Nickompoop]

Red Version for the Game Boy Color was the first handheld game I ever played back when it was bundled with the GBC. My first console game was Star Wars Podracer for the N64, which I must've gotten rid of because it's not with my other N64 games...

 

[bl4ckh4wk64]

Worms Armageddon on the PS1. God, I had so much fun with that game.

 

[plank_man180]

Either Super Mario Kart on the Super Nintendo or Sonic 2 on the Mega drive.


Gaming was so much simpler back then, but so much more awesome!

 

[Frenger]

A side scrolling shooter that I don't recall the name of at the moment. I do recall that I had to go into the kitchen and rewind the tape ...

 

[ObsessiveSketch]

Either SimAnts or...Oh! no no no no, it was an ancient 2d sidescroller on my grandparents' computer...little green alien with suction cups for hands.

Cosmo! Holy shit, that was an awesome game.
