Do you remember the first time you started gaming?

[QUOTE="t3hTwinky"]

My older brother started me off with Daggerfall and Wolfenstein 3D.

Am I hardcore now?

Daggerfall? Psshh, that means you started after 1996. Ye're a lightweight, laddie.

I remember playing Commander Keen, Wolfenstein 3D, and "Daggerfall" in my brother's dorm room, and he graduated in 1994.

So I must not have been playing Daggerfall OMG!!1! :o This is going to drive me nuts until I figure out what game that was.

The Elder Scrolls Arena, Ultima Underworld II: Librynth of Worlds or Lands of Lore: Throne of Chaos. These are the only games I remember that were released near 1994 that resemble Daggerfall.

I remember it. My neighbour was having a garage sale, and i went over and got a SNES, 2 mario games, and A Link to the Past with my dad. :)

It was the greatest day in my gaming life.

Started with Tetris and Super Mario Land on the Gameboy in 1991. Soon after I had both SNES and Sega Genesis, but my older cousin abused the SNES to the point where it ceased to play games, so I pretty much grew up on Genesis and Gameboy for the most part.

Believe it was 1991 or some such when my dad brought home a C64 one day. Tons of games, all of them pirated, but I don't think anyone was aware of that back then. Falcon Patrol was the first ever game I played. Didn't like it all that much. Rampage, Who Dares Wins, Tapper, Gunsmoke and Ikari Warriors pwnzored it. There was also this detective game I continued playing despite never figuring out what the hell to do.

The theme for Gunsmoke is the best theme ever btw.

yer when i was 6. i was just playing crash bandicoot 3: warped for hours on end. i still play this game reguarly to this day.

I can't really remember but it might well of been an old IBM PC which a friend had and we played black and white adventure game and a Winter Olympics game which was on 5 1/4 floppy.

But the first gaming machine I had was an old 286... and it had Captin Cosmic and Commander Keen

Those were the days have to go to c:\wolf3d and then running wolf3d.exe.................. That was an excellent game, do you remember shareware games like BlakeStone and Rise of the Triad

SNES playing Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country games ftw.

I also slightly remember playing the original NES Mario, but I was a wee lad.

I'm not sure about the year, it was in the early 90's and me and my cousin played SMB for countless hours.

Can't remember the years. But i started off on handhelds, Game Gear (a lot of Shinobi) and Gameboy (a butt-load of tetris). Shortly after, i somehow got a Mega Drive with Sonic, Mickey mouse, TOCA, etc and my uncle bought the SNES Street Fighter II bundle. That was when things got crazy - Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Super Probotector, Super Mario Kart, Super Bomberman 2, Donkey Kong Country, Micro Machines, Killer Instinct, Super Mario All-Stars, Super UN Squadron, Super Mystical Ninja etc. as well as imported games (using adaptor or action replay) like Dragon Ball Z, Pop N Twinbee, and other obscure Japanese titles (a lot of side scrolling shooters, mechas, anime-inspired games).

It eventually went on to PS1, N64, PS2, GC, XB, etc. A lot of my best gaming memories involved 3-4 players on the Nintendo machines, especially the SNES with the Hudson Multitap and the N64. It was around the GC era when people started going off in separate ways or just not gaming so much anymore: it's a shame, but life goes on.

My bros had an NES and they wouldn't let me play it no matter how many times I tell my parents, they wouldn't share :cry: I only get to play a little bit of Mario and they take it away from me. Then when I moved, I got a Sega Genesis bundled with Sonic and it was all for myself. I didn't let my older bros play it until they do something for me.

I played Sonic for hours and after school even Sonic 2, until I beaten the game. But then my genesis died :cry: so in the next christmas my parents bought me and all my bros a SNES with All-stars & Super Mario World and it brought me and my bros close together.
