I believe Warcraft 3 for PC was my first online game.
All my friends were playing back then when I was in school.
I think I played more DOTA than the real WC3. lol
world at war/cod 4 when I got back into gaming on the ps3 back in 2009 only spent about 15ish minutes on the online part. bought demon's souls about a year later and spent 100s of hours in it.
Team Fortress Classic.
with a 33.6 modem, oh man i remember the red dot site with the sniper rifle, it lagged so far behind the actual reticle, it was an art getting a headshot.
I don't really know. It was either Diablo II, StarCraft, Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun, or Red Alert 2. I only played the very odd online game with those though. The game that really turned me into a regular online gamer though was Halo 2.
Doom was the first normal video game that I played in a multiplayer environment- usually at LAN parties with friends. I'm thinking people might not be familiar with this concept, since high speed internet made the a relic of the past. For those who aren't familiar, LAN stands for Local Area Network. In the early 90's this was how we had to play Multiplayer games consisting of more than 2 people.
Basically, you picked a friend who had cool parents or a single mom (cuz they don't give a ****) who didn't monitor their liquor cabinet and had everyone bring over their rig's over. And remember in the 90's computers were ginormous, 15inch CRT monitors weighed like 45lbs, so it took some dedication. I can safely say, that most of my "first times" were at a LAN party. I have a funny story about a CyberDemon and a neighborhood girl that could unhinge her jaw, but I'll save that for another time.
I feel like I should mention Command and Conquer too, it was the first multiplayer game I really got addicted too.
Ultima Online was the first MMO that I played, I use to play it with my dad in 1997. I'm not sure I really liked it though, I found it pretty confusing and obtuse. Everquest was the first MMO I really got into.
