I don’t know the name. In the afternoons in the early nineties after school I was at a neighbor’s house. Her husband had a PC and a joystick connected to it sparked my interest. He showed me a flight game. I don’t remember much detail, but it was a vector based game with fast action based flying and you had to bombard or shoot enemy bases. The next thing I remember is my mother calling our neighbor when I planned to come home because it was already getting late and I had never stayed that long before.

I think I might play the Tomb Raider Legend/Anniversary/Underworld trilogy. Just to get ready for the I - III remasters.

As much as I enjoy the newer trilogy, I really miss old campy Lara. The fun adventures that don’t take themselves too seriously.

Edit: Man, I forgot how finicky the controls of these games can be.

Edit 2: No, seriously, fuck these controls. Anniversary feels like a nightmare to play. Legend had its control problems, but at least there wasn’t platforming in literally every room. I can appreciate that it’s got waaaaay more puzzles (I mean, it’s a remake of the original), but that doesn’t matter if the controls make the puzzles unnecessarily frustrating.

The very first game I remember was Alex Kidd on Master System II, my mother was always playing it!

The very first I played was probably NFS 3 on PC with my father. I remember playing it during the 1999 Athens earthquake aftershocks and getting scared

Probably Duke Nukem 3D, introduced by way of my uncle’s at the time high end computer.

I’d seen arcade games and things, but an actual interactive 3D world I could walk around in was wild. It was also a much bloodier and more “adult” game than anything I’d seen before.

Later that year, 1997, I got a Nintendo 64 for Christmas along with Goldeneye and StarFox64. Those two games became mainstays for me at home.

I think it might have been Falcon 3.0?

I’m pretty sure it was Paperboy on one of those Tiger Handhelds. Looking them up now brings back memories.

bibliotectress,

I can’t remember if I played this first, or Tetris. It was probably pretty close for me?

I had a Commodore 64. I played Ultima 3 and Archon (wizard's chest) as my first games I really liked.

I don’t really remember. Maybe Kirby on my aunts Gameboy?

Edit: Should read the whole post instead of just the title. So it’d probably be Bomber Jack. It was on a Gameboy cartridge with other games my dad got me when I was in the hospital as a kid (don’t remember what for).

Wizard of Wor on C=64

we had quite a few carts so it might not have been first but it certainly was the most played

Console would have to be the Mario/duck hunt/track and field combo. Pc would be either dos MegaMan or kurstys fun house.

Zorque,

We had that, Mario 3, and Marble Madness. I never got more than a few levels into any of them.

Backyard Football and Baseball for PC. I'm pretty sure there were some earlier puzzle games but those two had me loving sports and stats for years.

Nougat, do games w First game you played

Mattel Electronic Football

most likely Peek-a-Boo, or outside either Tag or Hide and Seek, if not something like Mouse Trap or Candy Land for board games

If you’re asking about video games, Pong on some sort of Realistic/Tandy console system in the late 70s when I would go to work with my father at Radio Shack (back when it was legit) and he would put me in front of the black&white.

Pong n a DEC PDP 11.

Everyone else posting about Atari 2600, C-64, and NES. I think you may also win the thread on the only https://www.theregister.com/2013/06/19/nuke_plants_to_keep_pdp11_until_2050/

Same here. I really am ancient,lol. I’d thought it might have been a Magnavox console,but they were sears diehards(no pun intended) back then. Makes sense. Even had the giant cylinder paddles with it,but no gun.
