    PC: Doom

    My very first love for video games in general + the fps genre. It's simply a classic and if you never played this game, I highly recommend you too! it's easy to pick up and play, and even though it's an old game, it still has some stuff that modern shooters don't seem to use like complicated level design, 2+ weapons, and it's fast paced. So it isn't too dated, all you really gotta do is adapt the graphics. Also Doom isn't Doom if it isn't on Ultra Violence. So play on it!

    Console: Goldeneye (N64)

    I played this at my uncle's house, and I really loved the game, but unfortunately, I was never a big fan of the N64 controller for FPS games, and back then console FPS in general were really off with the controls for me. I was primarily a PC player for FPS games back then untill I played Halo: Combat Evolved for the Xbox where I became both console and PC. Even to this day, I can't stand playing it. I really wanted to play this game on PC with a M/KB set up or just KB set up too. Sadly, I've never owned the game, I did play it enough to get the whole idea of it, but yeah I've never really owned the game.

    Doom. I remember the computers in school had it installed for some reason. I.T was a great lesson. On the ps2 though my first must have been medal of honour.

    I think my (first) fps was wolfenstein. Their was another game I used to play on my Commadore Amiga, I just can't remember the name of it to save my life! It was one of those quest games like Skyrim. I have been hooked by fps ever since.

    Either Wolfenstein 3D or Blake Stone. On console, I'm not sure. There weren't a lot of FPS on consoles before the N64 and Playstation. I guess the first memorable ones would be turok and Goldeneye.

    Doom was my very first, until I got my own PC it was Delta Force which was also the first multiplayer I played on 56k Dial-Up (type T to check lag after every non-kill!!)

    On the PC the first FPS I played was the mighty Doom. After that Wolfenstein 3D, Doom 2, Rise of the Triad, Duke Nukem 3D, Blake Stone 3D, Dark Forces etc etc.

    Great times for the FPS they were.
