When did you first jump?

[Ranooth]

Come ye olde members of The Escapist, gather round, grab a beer and let us reminisce about the old days and when you first jumped..............in a game that is!

My first jump was back in the early 90's on Sonic The Hedgehog.

Mine was probably in 1995 in a demo for Hercules.

I think after admitting that I have to quit the internet out of shame

 

[hazabaza1]

Probably Mario or Sonic.

 

[orangebandguy]

Probably Pokemon Blue. You could jump over those ledge things.

 

[Kollega]

First jump? Lemme think... in Quake III in the late 90s, probably. I was always a PC gamer (no Mario or Sonic for me), and i didn't play all that many platformers in my life anyway.

If the car jumps count - then in the first game i've played, the good ol' Midtown Madness 2.

 

[DarkSaber]

I can't remember which game exactly, but it was late 80s on the Commodore 64. It wasn't in the first game I got though, that was Fast Food Dizzy, a pac-man derivative.

 

[GundamSentinel]

Captain Comic in 1992 or something. Damn birds...

 

[messy]

Mario land 2; six golden coins (Game boy colour; first game to feature Wario)

I think the year was 1999, which mde me 8

 

[DuplicateValue]

Ahh, Crash Bandicoot if I remember right. =]
The first one - you know, the good one.

 

[Swaki]

oi, now let me think.
i think my first jump was in kirbys dream land 2 on the gameboy in 95 or 96.

 

[Mushroomfreak111]

The first time I jumped must have been when I played some Hercules game for the PS1 (can't remember name). Might also have been GTA1 tho^^

 

[The Infinite]

Super Mario Land in 1994 on the original GameBoy, I believe I was but 3 at the time.

 

[noodles loves you]

this is.... a weird topic, to say the least.

Still the earliest I can remember is Street Fighter 2 Turbo Edition on the SNES. jump kicks were just the most fun part of it for me at that age

Hercules was awesome, i remember it being all the rage back in the days, it was probably the only movie tie in game i actually enjoyed, please stick around =).

 

[Latinidiot]

Crash Bandicoot in ..pfft...1998?

 

[wooty]

Yep, Sonic the Hedgehog, 1991 at the tender age of 3. Dear god

Ha, I reckon that was mine too!

Good times.

 

[IckleMissMayhem]

Super Mario Land in '89.

 

[Halceon]

Think it was in duke nukem 3d, when i discovered the space bar, i wasn't even in elementary school back then hehe....i loved that game.

Now where is that beer?!?!

I don't remember Duke being able to jump. There was the jetpack, of course, but jumping...

Anyway, my first jump was in Bubble Bobble on the PC.

I never got the full game, but I wanted it at the time.
