I hear that. I've got the same story.wooty said:
The original Zelda on NES wasn't my first game, but it was the one that made me realize that video games were something special and would be a big part of my life for a long time.
Now, 20 years later, was it all worth it? Hell yeah it was! Though it does make me feel old and make me lament the time I spent playing crappy games because I didn't know better.
I had an N64 as a kid but I didn't play it too much, too young to really understand what the fuck I was doing, I didn't really start to get into gaming until I played Halo: CE co-op with a friend. He was coming over 2-3 times a week and we would play the shit out of that game, I can't even count how many times I've finished it.
my first game that got me hooked was a PS1 game call "Heart of Darkness" at the time it was a fun adventure of a kid trying to find his dog, but as i play it now, it has more child deaths that puts mw3 to shame (seriously like snapping his spine, incinerated in a fiery explosion, completely crushed, etc) has a character take a giant huff of pot before blowing it all infront of the kids face, and showing part of his porn collection.
but what made me say, im going to be a gamer for life was Pokemon red, holy shit the hours i poured into that game, the wins, the loses, the hard grind to beat the league, that the gyms where difficult beyond reason. ahh the memories.

Oddly enough, Myst. I know it's kind of odd to start off gaming with a poorly aged game like Myst, but the puzzles and the worlds that I saw were pretty dang imaginative and prompted me to play the sequels when they came. I often say that Super Mario Land 2 on the Game Boy was my first game that I owned (which is true), but it wasn't the game that got me into gaming.
Little Big Adventure 2 was what got me really interested... But there was the few games that came free on Windows 95! The hours and hours I played Doom, and Blake stone!! 
Now all you get are puzzle games!

I love Age of Empires! I still play it, too. Whem my husband and I stuff up, instead of calling for a medic, we shout out: "Monk! I need a monk!"urprobablyright said:
It being a line from AoE2 and all that...
The Legend of Zelda: A link to the Past, which I saw before I was even old enough to play games.
Why is it every time I see you, I stare at your avatar for at least 5 minutes....Dr.Susse said:
OP: I truly can't remember, I know the game that I spent hours of my time after school on though was Hot wheels Turbo racing, finding all the secret cars and stuff.. boy that was fun XD
But I still can't remember the very first game I played, all I remember is it was a point and click adventure game.
Super Mario Brothers was the first game I played AND the first game I raged at; those cheep cheeps (jumping fish) were the bane of my four-year-old self
Kirby's Dreamland was the first game I complete
Megaman X was the first game I completed more than three times and the first game I did a perfect play-through of (the only one come to think of it)
Mario Bros 3 was the first game I obsessed over
runescape was my first online gaming experience (way back in the old classic version which looked like complete and utter garbage x D)
......
Been gaming since I was four and I still vividly remember the first time I picked up a controller and walked straight into the first goomba (then cried)

I know the first game I have recollections of was a racing game and after doing some research I think it may have been Gran Trak 10 or at least some similar looking game (Gran Trak was released quite a few years before I was born).
The first game to really get me to take notice was super mario bros still as playable today as when it was 1st released a genuinely brilliant game (although super mario bros 3 is my favourite mario game ever).

Escape Velocity for the Mac OS (The original)
Also, for something a bit more modern that people might know, anything by Bioware, really.

Mariokart (can't remember the subtitle) on the gamecube was my first game ever, but Halo 3 is what really got me obsessed with the medium.
