My first online game was probably GunBound.

First console game would probably be Sonic on the Sega Genesis.

The first PC game that I ever played was the Journeyman Project Turbo. Yes, my name does indeed correspond somewhat to that game and how cool I thought it was. :D

Oh yea I remember that game. I stilll probably have a copy of it. Anyway, I believe the first game I've ever played was... lion king for the MS-DOS..., way back in the dinosaur days. You play as Simba and you run around the jungle and then eventually you grow up. It was something like that.

There's also this one game for dos that I vaguely remember... I don't remember if this game came out before or after lion king but hm.. you play as this red coin with legs and arms and you collect coins I think, I believe it was a mascot for 7-up at one point?? Does anyone remember playing this game?? I don't remember my childhood anymore.. everything is hazy..

The first PC game that I played was Quake 1.

What about your first PC Game ever? Do you still remember?

Post your first games here.

Phob0s

 

First PC game (by the old definition, meaning "Personal Computer"):

Lemonade Stand on the Commodore 64 (sometime around 1984)

 

First PC game (by the "IBM compatible" definition):

SimCity (1992, I think?)

 

First Console game:

Atari Super Pong (1976)

 The purpose of this Topic is to know what was the first PC game that you ever player not the first games available to PC or Consoles.

If someone wants to know the first game available for a gaming device  they look on google or web sites.

The first game I played all the way through was Fantasmagoria. My friend had it and I was over there everyday playing it until I finished. Then I got my own PC and I think my first game was probably the first GTA game.

Pacman 2.6 for Dos. My first DOS game I was into was probably Prince of Persia 2 or Wolf3d. The first game I actually went out and BOUGHT for DOS was QUAKE.

I believe the first PC game I played was Tetris, on the Apple IIgs in the mid-eighties. God, that was beyond classic. The copy protection made you hunt through the game's manual to pick out a single word in a specified paragraph on a certain page. Classic. And god help you if you lost the manual.

I must be old, cause it was Police Quest I by Sierra, on an Amber monitor. That's right Amber, this was before color monitors even came out...

Those police quest games were great...actually the first game i played was this football game on my radio shack Tandy, although idon't know if i'd qualify it as a "computer", more as a large calculator.

Apple IIc = Lemonade Stand

C64 = Ghost Busters

Atari 2600 = Space Invaders

NES = Super Mario Bros.

Coleco Vision = Donkey Kong Jr.

Amiga = Blood Money

SNES = Super Mario Bros. 3

Sega Genesis = NHL (can't remember which year)

PC = WarCraft 1, (Well solitaire really, but WC was the 1st real game I played.)

...OK so that's PC's and consoles... just shows you how old I really am. :roll:

While Police Quest wasnt my very first game, I would def credit it with being my first "real game experience".  Actually it was that game in particular along with many other from its time like Liesure Suit Larry and Harry Whodunit that same me on a path in gaming.  Granted these games are nearing almost 2 decades in age, I still reflect on them as my fondest moments in gaming.  The Adventure Genere itself was a staple in PC gaming until games like Commander Keen and Duke Nukem, then the final blow dealt by Wolf 3d.  I pained me to see the genre die out to leave FPS in its wake.  But nonetheless, there are many great adventure classics like Kyrandia, Zork, DotT, PQ series, LSL, Sam N Max, etc... that Im sure are many individuals 1st time in gaming.  I know tons of individuals from another site that usually credit adventure games and throbacks to C64 and Tandy days as the genesis to thier gaming.

I'd forgot a football game I use to play before I bought that first computer. A Tandy (and yes they were computers) with a color monitor. I'd play it at my dads. It had play lists and team rosters which you could fudge (yes the days of DOS and XTree) by changing the stat numbers. You played on a field with X's and O's.

Command & Conquer v1.22 - took me until I dug up Covert Ops a couple years later to get v1.20 where you could still do the trick where you sell a guard tower, wait till the gunners come out, then hit the cancel button. I still remember building up armies of a couple hundred which would slow my state-of-the-art Pentium 133MHz w/ 16MB RAM to a chug. Nothing the Obelisk of Light could do against that power.
