Your first game

We have some old f.ucks in this forum i think its going to be fun to see what people got as their first game.

Iv been playing computer games since the C64, but my firsdt purchased game is actually

Monkey Island 1 was the first game i a bought. I remember finding it in a bargain bin, it was in 94.

Before that it was all about piracy ;)

The first game I' ve owned was Super Mario 3. My father bought it for me along with a NES on my 7th birthday. Pretty sick gift now that I think about it.

I can' t remember the first game I' ve played. The first one I bought was Contra (still haven' t beaten it).

I think my first game was for the atari, called Ikaros ( i think) was some indian warrior dudes runnign around killing things, and you could find a tank which was awesoem, but its more than 20 years ago, so my memory is jaded.

When I was 3 my dad bought one of those handheld football games. The ones with the red lines.

"If you knew how good I am you would think I'm modest."

probably my first game was something like one of those tank battle ones on the original atari videoconsole, but first game that I really have any recollection of is Jelly Monsters on the Vic20.

The first games I owned were for the mighty Sega Master System and were all purchased at the same time:

-Hang-On/Safari Hunt (space age technology allowed an entire TWO games to fit on ONE cartridge!!!!)
-Choplifter
-Space Harrier (TWICE the MEGA POWER... you don' t f*ck with that).

Since I was born in 1990, I believe my first game was Super Mario World. However, we did have a Gameboy and a number of games for that.

The first home console game was on an Intellivsion rip off it had about 5 or 6 carts, Shooting gallery, Invaders, pong that type of stuff, but it was in colour!!!

Just found a link to the console and carts.

I also had a " mini Munchman" hand held.

Earliest ' PC' games would be on the ZX81 and they were text based adventure games and chess games, whilst there was a version of Manic Miner as well. My gaming was quickly moved to Commodore 64 then Amiga.

Yep I remember the ' golden' age!!!!

ah, Manic Miner I remember that on the spectrum.

First really stand out game for me was Gridrunner 2 on the Vic20 - Jeff Minter insanity at its best.

Attack and Revenge of the Mutant Camels were great games and very comical as well.

I still thought the Cinemaware games were good. The most infuriating game was Ghostbusters though

Cinemaware games were great on the amiga.

Would have to be Sonic on the master system 2. Have absolutely no idea how old I was back then. Probably the only reason I still love Sonic to this day even after all the crappy games is because it was my first gaming experience.

the first thing I played that I can remember the name of was Oregon Trail on my cousin' s C64. There were probably some Tiger handhelds before that, but I don' t remember any of them.

The first thing I owned was this thing:



Got it for chistmas one year, and I had to share it with my sister.
The next year I got the Defender version.

A soccergame for C64:

It was superb

Duck Hunt for the NES or a scary as fuc.k circus game on C64.

First game i ever played was Super Mario Bros. on NES. However, back then it was way too difficult for me and I never got past World 4, so I prefered to watch my uncle play it while I was jumping around while watchig him play.

The first game I actually owned was Sonic the Hedgehog 1...and it was also too difficult for me, while my father managed to beat the game. What an awful childhood I had.

Alex Kidd in Miracle World. I mean, seriously. You just turn on your console and instead of some boring menu a masterpiece automatically starts

' Frak!' on the Acorn Electron - was a platform game where the main character was a caveman with a yo-yo that he used to kill christmas trees with teeth, whilst simultaneously trying to avoid floating balloons and raining daggers! Very surreal. When he died, a speech bubble would come out saying Frak!. Hehe.



Probably around the same time it was Rebelstar on the ZX Spectrum, which led onto obsessions with Laser Squad and then the UFO series by the Gollop twins. Such great games!

The Mario/Duckhunt cartridge. However, when my dad bought, he bought like another 10 games, like Burger Time, Contra 2, Ninja Gaiden and I don' t remember the rest, but Mario and Duckhunt where my firsts.

As far as my first owned console (paid by me and owned by me) it was the PSOne, along with Final Fantasy VII, the Resident Evil trilogy, Parasite Eve 2 and some motorcycle racing game.

" Air-Sea Battle" for the 2600, a.k.a. " Target Fun." My parents surprised me and my brother with a 2600... but then they made us clean our rooms before we could play. I remember hearing my Dad playing it from my room, and cleaning as fast as possible. Actually I still have a strong urge to clean my room before I play games...

Earliest game I can remember playing was Zaxxon for Coleco Vision. Great game, and I kicked ass at it.

Most wanted games:

Mass Effect
Assasins Creed
Crysis
Little Big Planet
Drakes Fortune
UTIII
Kane and Lynch
Heavy Rain
Alan Wake

Frogger on the Atari. Vague memories of it but that was certainly the first game.

Tetris/Game Boy (' 89 gameboy) combo.

The first home console I owned myself, as opposed to my parents was a Sony Playstation.

I had the Atari, MSX , NES , Amiga , Mega Drive , SNES in my childhood (more like my older brothers consoles lol) but i dont remember game names or years exactly since i didnt know how to read english at the time and didnt care about dates lol. I just chilled and played. Some of the games that i remember are an Adam' s Family game and a racing game that had a Jaguar XJ220 as its theme car with jaw dropping graphics and it even came on a whopping 2 floppy disks!

King' s Quest on the IBM PC jr. It was truly a great game, though as a kid I did not really fully appreciate it for what it was.

Two earliest games I remember playing were Duck Hunt for NES and Super Mario World for SNES, don' t remember which was first though.

After the 2600 me and my brother did most of our gaming on the Apple ][e for a while. My favorites were Bolo, the Bilestoad, the Infocom games, Tony Suzuki' s great shooter Star Blazer, SubLogic' s Flight Simulator 2.0, EA' s " Construction Set" games... later on Broderbund really pushed its capabilities with Karateka and Wings of Fury. Of course I was amazed by my friends' C64s too, but didn' t get to use them a whole lot.

My first 8-bit console game was probably The Ninja for the SMS.

I couldn' t remember the first game I played if my life and the life of my family (cats included) depended on it..

Something tells me that PONG was the first console game I played.. I remember plugging that ugly brown console to our ancient TV set with bad reception, switching over to Channel 3 and having a ball playing against myself, the CPU, and my siblings.

In terms of Arcade games, I don' t remember what my first quarter muncher was. But some of my earliest Arcade gaming memories are of Donkey Kong, BurgerTime, Kangaroo, Galaga, Galaxian, Zaxxon, Frogger, Q*Bert, Pac-man, Ms. Pac-man, and Jr. Pac-man.... I absolutely LOVED the original Donkey Kong and BurgerTime. I liked Kangaroo but sucked at it, I always struggled to get past the first level. I thought Galaga and Galaxian were OK but I much prefer scrolling shooters. I enjoyed Zaxxon but sucked at it. Liked Frogger but sucked at it. Liked Q*Bert and was mesmerized by the little fella, but sucked at the game. I was never a fan of the Pac-man family back then but played them all. When I got older I developed an appreciation for them..

I can' t forget the Laser Disc games like Dragon' s Lair and Cliff Hanger. Cliff Hanger has the distinction of having been the greatest game mystery to me up until 2 years ago.

I think the first console game to impress me as a little kid was Smurfs for the Coleco Vision. That game had awesome graphics back then! As a kid I marveled at the character designs and thought, " Wow, they look just like the Smurfs on TV, Coleco Vision can do WAY better graphics than the Atari 2600 and the Intellivision!!!" And thus a young Graphics-whore was born!

I had an Atari 2600, Atari 5200, and 7800, though, the latter 2 were pretty much used as door stops since they didn' t work. Had a Vectrex unit but don' t remember what the hell I had for that thing. Had a Coleco Vision and loved it. Had an Intellivision, loved that too. Also had the Magnavox Odyssey. Even though the Odyssey predates Pong and Atari' s other stuff, I didn' t get one until after I had the Atari systems, Coleco, Intellivision, etc.

I think the very first computer game I played was Karateka for the Apple II I believe. And because of my very limited exposure to PC gaming, it remains my favorite computer gaming experience.

Heyy, we were born in the same year.

SNES in my childhood (more like my older brothers consoles lol)

Haha yeah i know that feeling too.

I honestly don' t remember the first game i ever bought, but i remember when i was young, playing.. stupid fucking tennis games on SNES and playing Star Fox and.. the Lion King game >_> Not to mention the handfull of mario games we had.
The games that really got me into ' gaming' and ended up stopping me playing sport all together would probably have been Ocarina of Time, or PC games like Unreal Tournament.

I thought this was a " first game you bought" thread instead of a " first game you played" . It would be near impossible to remember the first game I played. Maybe Pac Man or something.

LOL, My first game I bought was GTA Vice City for PS2.

I' m a year shy of y' all. We may just be the few products of the nineties here. I think Aba was younger than I am, but I haven' t seen him here, or on Xbox Live in ages.

The Moroccan piracy po-pos must' ve finally caught up with him.

Edit: First game I bought? Mario All-Stars for SNES. I saved for almost a year, every bit of change I found for that game.

I fucking loved that game! :D

Ah, my first taste of gaming proper was when I was 6, and I bagged myself a Master System with Sonic built in. Also got Ghostbusters and Lucky Dime Caper (such a great game), but I' d say Sonic MS was my first played game on a console I owned.

Then came the Amiga, and Lemmings took over my life. That and Captain Planet (bastard-hard game that is).

I can' t remember the first game I played. The first game I bought was the old platformer Gods back on DOS. I remember not being very good at it, and I don' t think I ever finished it.

The first game I remember playing was Crazy Golf on the Spectrum. It was rubbish, but iliked it at the time.

R-Type on the spectrum blew me away with it' s glorious colour!

Here it is

Quite impressive for a 20 year old game!

Ahh, first game I bought is easy. It was the NES version of Galaga. I used every bit of my 13th birhday money to buy it.

My Dad bitched at me for " wasting" my money. Then, he played so much I couldn' t even get any game time the first night. I had to get my mom to tell him to get out of my room so I could sleep that night.
