The most violent game I played as a kid was probably GoldenEye and I didn't own it.
My mother had issues with me watching Pokemon because of the violence and didn't even let me watch Power Rangers. =(
Wait I'm a liar now, I played Diablo and Diablo 2 at a very young age because my Uncle was super awesome. I was likely 12 or something, give or take 2 years.
I don't spend an enormous amount of effort remembering last week, a decade ago is to much for me.
To spare everyone the long version, no, Diablo was not at fault for anything.
And vaguely related: School. For those of you keeping score on what actually was the primary blame.

Think I was 11 or 12, and it was maybe Metal Gear Solid... Or Syphon Filter 2...
First one I played though was Doom, at age 7 or 8?
Didn't effect me in anyway...

When I was 10, my babysitter gave me Turok Dinosaur Hunter. I thought it sucked then and I think it sucks now.
Duke Nukem 3D back when it was new in 1996. I was 9 years old at the time. My dad introduced me to the hard stuff right away. Best dad ever 
I convinced my dad to let me get Oblivion when I was 14 after I proved to him it was only rated M because of the Mods people were making for it. I was such a goddamn happy camper. He even bought me the strategy guide for it too I love my dad.
I love my dad.
Hmmm... I think I was 10 years old when I got Unreal Tournament for the Ps2. I think that was my first M rated game
Kida the same as some others, mine was Mortal Kombat for the SNES, that was the first i played, the first my cousin bought for me was Vice City and San Andreas was the first i bought myself (well it was my money but i didnt go in and get it)
Technically the first i bought being of legal age was Red Dead Redemption, since i only turned 18 in june last year.
I love having that older sibling/family member who loves to game and buys you great titles

Red Dead Revolver was not only my first PS2 game, but also my first M game. Let's see, that was Christmas of...2003. Guess I was twelve.
I convinced my mother to let me buy a copy of GTA Vice City when I was 15. She knew about the game and the alarmist reports she'd heard about on TV, but after about a minute or so of thinking she decided I was mature enough to handle the content even if I was two years away from 17 to buy my own M rated games.
Incidentally the used copy I bought became unplayable two years later when I was 17 so I ended up buying it on my own when I was of the legal age anyway.
