1980: tennis-console for tv; you could play tennis with a pad with radiobutton (looked more like pong for one or two players) or shoot the ball with the gun that also came with the console.

1982: my first lcd game; a double screen pinball

1984: my first computer: commodore 64 with Yie-Ar Kung Fu, Kickstart, Kane and Kentilla :karate:

1993: my first PC with Prince Of Persia :Titan:

I think it was Spy Hunter for Spectrum ZX, but I'm not sure about the name. Something about driving a car and shooting other cars.

For PC it was the brilliant Mastertronic's Barbarian :crazy: , which I managed to beat and knew every secret.

I can't remember the name of the game, but it involved going into granny's garden -Actually it may have been called Granny's Garden, come to think of it-. It was one of those educational games, and I would have been about 7, on one of the school's 4 apple computers(around 1991?).
Later on it was Tetris, Duke Nukem, TFX, Comic, Frontier(Elite), Prince of Persia. I still have the disks and recently uploaded Tetris, Frontier and Prince of Persia onto my old Toshiba win 3.1 laptop. I sometimes think the only thing that technology has improved gamewise is the graphics. Some of thise smaller games are pretty :whistle: playable.

When dad bought me the C64 (H.C. 92 it was called), it came with one floppy that had a lot of little programs on it.
80% of them i never figured out a purpose for, but one of them was a simple version of ms paint.
There were also 2 games on that floppy...
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Express.
Express was the first game I ever played. You were a little guy on a moving train, and you had to get to the locomotive to stop it. You had to run on top of the cars, catching birds in mid-flight and throwing them at enemies :blink: then you'd go inside the cars and keep fighting. It was awesome :P

PC: Dangerous Dave, Wolf3d, Commander Keen series, Zool, Supaplex, Skunny series, Dyna Blaster, CD-Man, Cannon Fodder and many more.....

All these games were already installed on our first PC when we bought it. Some were shareware but most of them full versions. By the way, that same machine (486, 8 Megs RAM, DOS 6.22, Win 3.11) still works. Actually, a few years ago I still used it to play these old games, but then I bought my first own PC and installed Dosbox.

When I got my first PC, my and my bro were playing with MSPaint. Then a friend of my dad came and installed Accolade's Grand Prix Circuit, technically making it the first game I ever played

EDIT: Ressurecting a 2,5 year old topic? Awesome.
