What was your first game that you could ever recall playing?
What started your 'gamer' career.
For me I think it was an Atari game or nes game that was my starting.
It was along the lines of pong, fireman/firerescue don't really recall it was a burning building game on Atari.
or duckhunt. early game boy games were great too, game boy camera and the og pokemon trio ah good times.

Back in my day before Playstation and XBox there were these things.

Arcade machines that cost 20 cents a game.
My first game was Street Fighter where I'd try to unlock a special move by pressing 25 buttons and moving the joystick up, down, left, right in sequence.


Also, I'm addicted to these Claw Crane Games.

First games?
Hmm my game history roughly followed development of games.
At first I had several versions of portable console similar to gameboy - it had only black white screen, and there were games like Tertris, Snake, some racer, tanks and some other simple games.

Next I got stationary console called NES - there were games like Mario on it.
Others were Duck Hunter and countless other games like Batman or Guerrilla.

Later I got Amiga, and I had games like SimCity 1, Lemmings, some game full of color called Rainbow Island: Parasol or something - it was platformer like bubble bobble, and countless other games.

Then I got PC with DOS - it had games like Civilization I and others from 1980 - 1990's period.
75 MHz processor and 1 MB of ram never forget.

After that I got several new PCs, that could run games from early 2000's.

Then I got computer before this one, that could run Minecraft... poorly.

After that I got computer upgrade somewhere in February 2013, now I can run every unmodded (to moderately modded) game on max settings :)

My first "console" was when I was three. A damn Vsmile.

I remember I had an Aladdin game or something, and I would play for hours.
I think I was 4-5(?) when I got a Nintendo Ds and eventually my childhood game was-

(ah the memories..)
Then I moved onto Webkinz....then Club Penguin...then a little bit of poptropica..and finally Moshi Monsters before I came onto Minecraft. :p

Gameboy.
Pokemon yellow/gold/silver.
I stole them of my brother as often as I could, this was around 10 years back and I had no idea what I was doing.
He also had a harry potter game, of which I would just run around in.

I went through a phase of club penguin/moshi monsters/poptropica/other similar games.

Aside from that I haven't really played anything but minecraft/g-mod/the ship since.
