What was your first game?

CIS · July 28, 2015, 07:32:36 PM

I remember playing Super Mario 64 as a kid for the first time. It was like magic.

Thun · July 28, 2015, 07:36:07 PM

Duck Hunt

Mat Cauthon · July 28, 2015, 07:39:30 PM

I'm not sure, the first I played might have been one of three.
Streets of Rage, Golden Axe or Sonic 1/2

I'm sure the first console I played on was a Megadrive/Genesis.

That I personally owned? Pokemon pinball

Jono · July 28, 2015, 07:41:29 PM

I think it was either Super Mario Bros on the NES or Sonic the Hedgehog 2

Rinev · July 28, 2015, 07:42:20 PM

Probably Super Mario World for the SNES.

Verbatim · July 28, 2015, 07:43:47 PM

Super Mario Bros. on NES, most likely.

Doctor Doom · July 28, 2015, 07:46:29 PM

That I personally owned? PC Spider-Man.

Super Irish · July 28, 2015, 07:50:47 PM

I had a combo-game with my PS1, which had Destruction Derby 2 and Wipeout 3

Ignore the 240p, it was just as pixelated.

The latter had the menu in Japanese for some reason, and so I never had a clue what I was doing until I eventually got into a race. It had the best music ever though, and I think it's what led me to electronic music later in life.

Crash Bandicoot

Epsira · July 28, 2015, 08:17:44 PM

It's the first game I ever finished for sure.

DAS B00T x2 · July 28, 2015, 08:27:32 PM

I'm gonna go with Pokemon Yellow.

Kiwicake · July 28, 2015, 08:40:00 PM

I wanna say like the original Spyro

Elai · July 28, 2015, 09:04:14 PM

I don't remember. Probably Pokemon Silver/The Precursor Legacy/MGS1/Spider-man 64/Diddy Kong Racing.

I had the Ruby/Sapphire version

I don't usually like these type of games, but I played a lot of this one.
Looking back on it, I really liked this game.

Either Donkey Kong Country or Super Mario Brothers.

Korra · July 28, 2015, 10:23:35 PM

Mmmmm Napalm · July 28, 2015, 11:44:12 PM

Wallace & Gromit in Project Zoo.

I still enjoy that game.

i honestly don't remember any games earlier than these two...?

Verbatim · July 29, 2015, 12:52:09 AM

For me, it was either SMB, or this:

Spoiler

cute huh

even though it was an educational game for little kids, the game had this very eerie atmosphere that kinda creeped me out
but i still kinda liked it, even as a 4/5 year old

Zonda · July 29, 2015, 01:00:40 AM

I think it was either Excitebike, Ski, Xargon, or that Digimon Tamagotchi thing.

Coco · July 29, 2015, 01:16:26 AM

My parents' Windows 95 comp had a bunch of games on it. So I played games like:

Moto Racer

Math Blaster

Some really polygonal space shooter game. Can't remember the name.

Soon after, I got my first console: a Gameboy Color with Pokemon Blue.

FatherlyNick - fuck putin · July 29, 2015, 03:33:06 AM

Quake 2 on PS1. Still play it today.

Sprungli · July 29, 2015, 04:17:03 AM

Must've been either Tomb Raider, Gran Turismo 2 or Dino Crisis (all on PS1).

Mr. Psychologist · July 29, 2015, 08:41:12 AM

Dune 2000 or AoE I, pretty sure it was Dune 2000 though.
