Your First Ever Game....

fireant on the commadore plus 4
me and my dad stayed up till gone midnight boxing day of 86
ahhhhh the good old days
 
The first game I remember playing was some Olympic game at a family members house. It was on a long jump level. I dont even remember the console, ATARI maybe. lol. I was only about 4-5 years old.

My brother told me that day I said to my cousin, "you have a cool dad, I wish I had a dad like yours" i.e. one that got me a games console. lol. My dad heard this and next thing I know I got a sega master system and shortly after a Nintendo entertainment system.

Anyone remember the rocky game on the master system. I could never beat drago. I downloaded a sega emulator recently and downloaded that game with a piece of software that let me assign a key to be turbo so I could get maximum scores and gain the ability to beat him :)

I remember completing super mario brothers on the NES at the age of 5. I even have a picture of it, as my 17 year old brother back then could not do it. lol. That was 19 years ago :(

Wish I could go back :(
 
First memorable PC game was Wolfenstein 3D. First console game was Alex the Kidd on the Sega Master System 2.
 
I remember with the first PC ever to grace our family came:

Zoombinies (ah happy times)
Eraser (still retains the award of most ridiculous gun to date)
POD (incredible game!)
 
Adventure on the ZX81, then remember PacMan on my brothers Vic20 (cartridge). Still can't believe he paid over £400 for a Vic20 to be imported from Germany. I'm still waiting for Braben or (not and) Bell to get a big publisher to forward them the cash to develop a new version of Elite. :)
 
A Soundic "Sports" console game which my dad won in a works raffle.

We didn't have a TV as we were too poor, so he went out and bought little black and white tv to play it on.

Those were the days....
