Whats your first memory of Gaming

[vivalahelvig]

Watching my bro play Morrowind, and getting his ass beaten by a Lich sucking away his health, making the fight unwinnable.

 

[Lullabye]

Duck hunt.
But I didn't play it, I was watching my uncle and grandfather play.

Well considering that I was very tiny back then, I think it was Star Wars: Shadow of the Empire for the N64.

my dad tried to teach me how to play donkey kong. the barrels kicked my ass and i didn't try gaming again for almost a month.

SNES Zombies ate my Neighberhood

Hell of an introduction to the genre.

Sorry, but exactly how old were you when you first played this?

OT: Call of duty, the first one, and i remember creeping on the ground to were you have to place the beacon at the beginning of the first level, thinking a sniper would shoot at me any second.

Ahhh... nostalgia's a ***** aint it?

Watching my older brothers play MDK on the computer.

My God, that's a great game. Anyone else heard of it?

It was either Sonic or Aladdin for the Sega. Aladdin was actually my first cheat code to. AA,BB,AA,BB let you skip a level

Wario Land 3 and Fake Mario Bros. 2 for the GBA when I was 10.

good times, except to this day (I'm 16) I still haven't beaten that FUCKING Mecha Birdo!

stupid robot duck dinosaur thing.

 

[Pielikey]

Need for Speed : High Stakes with my Dad's Microsoft Force Feedback wheel. That game was great.

 

[CarlsonAndPeeters]

Watching my cousin play Super Mario Bros. 3 at my grandparents' farm.

It is not possible to express in words how awesome my 4-year-old self found taht raccoon suit to be.

 

[Tanwen]

Watching my dad play Tomb Raider 2 =)

 

[KRbertsproduck5]

Outrun on the saga mastersystem

 

[Cogwheel]

Warcraft 2.

When I was what, four years old?

I then moved on to Tetris, Pokemon, a variety of Sonic games, Dungeon Keeper, Baldur's Gate and Planescape: Torment by age seven. I'm odd like that.

 

[sagacious]

Either playing pokemon yellow on a new gameboy color I got one christmas, or watching over on of my dad's friend's shoulder as he played C&C Tiberian sun.

Dunno which came first though...

 

[BelmontClan]

Probably some educational games on the Atari 800 along with Pac-Man and loading games by tape.

Any time anyone bitches about loading for more than a few seconds, I just laugh compared to what it took to load games by TAPE.

 

[Lyx]

Oldest videogame memory for me, would probably either be pacman or pitfall on an atari 2600 - not sure which one of both.

 

[the_hoffs_ego]

My first memory was playing Age of Empires 2 with my dad. We were always the blue, the enemies red and green. Good times.

Hell of an introduction to the genre.

Sorry, but exactly how old were you when you first played this?

5 or 6 (so 1998, 1999 around that time frame) when I first played it when visiting my cousin's house.

Hmm, the game that allows you pay pay hookers to see their pixilated tits, and then kill them to get your money back?

Not saying im on the high ground here, what with me killing tens of nazis every level of the game i first played, but still...
