Pacman and Tetris on my father's work PC, that must have been like 20 years ago. I've been glued to the screen, but I can't remember if the games were in color already or monochrome...

First game was Spy Vs Spy 2, the Island Caper on my commodore computer back when I was at the tender age of 8.

My first addictive game had to be Kings Quest 3, my cousin got it for his computer and I would spend hours and hours on it in the day when I was 10 years old, they didn't have walkthroughts and the Internet had something to do with fishing.

I feel really old now (plucks out a grey hair)

The first couple of games that got hooked on were for the Commodore 64 as well. They were Ghostbusters (like you Sebatianos) and The Swiss Family Robinson. That game really got ya thinking! Anyway, there was a lull for a while in games (because I moved away from my friend with the Commodore :whistle: ), and then I had another friend that had the Secret of Monkey Island and Quest for Glory 1 VGA. I've been hooked on games ever since....

Does anyone remember the Commander Keen games?? I grew up playing those!
Asides from those, it'd have to be Dagger of Amon Ra...a pretty scary game for a six-year old kid to play...LOL

oh yeah...Quest for Glory 1 too!!

You're already great in my book QFQ Fan, I used to love Commander Keen and still play Dagger all the time. k: When I was younger and first played it the introduction scene made me have nightmares. :P

Finally!! Someone who knows what Commander Keen is! I ask my friends if they've ever played it before and they're all like " :blink: "

That beginning scene Calamity, and the end scene where the killer is chasing after you scared the living crap out of me...I remember the first time I played it I kept dying because all I would do was scream...LOL

When I was younger I never got to the end because I used up all the anti-snake oil and then got devoured in the boiler pipes! :[img]http://www.abandonia.com/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' />

It's great to find more people that love this game as much as I do.
