The first game I remember playing is Doom on our windows 96 or 98 I can't remember which. What I do remember is how hectic it was and the fact all you had to do is aim in the direction of enemies and you'd hit them. That and the BFG.
pendown on the BBC micro. i didnt have one of these new fangled contraptions, it was at school we were pretty much forced to use it.
does anyone remember pendown? ive asked all my support staff around my age if they remember this educational game which taught kids how to program,none of them know of it.
it was a black background with a white triangle (supposed to be a turtle aparently) drawing out all code directions you typed in, i think 'F350' might have been an example of the movement as the F woud have stood for forward and the number woud have been how many steps it goes-im certain thats how it worked.
some kids did amazing masterpieces with pendown,however my pendown work looked like id butchered it blindfolded,fed it to a cat and it coughed it back up as some sort of vile furball-i didntt understand numbers and i had a lot of trouble with letters and words so i just mashed whatever the hell was on the keyboard.
on the commodore 64 we had at home in the late eighties, my dad used to put on a game called split personalities which was puzzle based and rubbish, spy hunter,monty the mole on the run, bart simpsons vs the space mutants etc.
i remember when we had done good at junior school (which wasnt often for me,i was usualy kept sat in the head masters office on the floor the whole day while he scowled at me or in the computer room as they didnt know what to do with me) they woud hand out floppy disks with doom,canon fodder etc on-im certain these all had BBFC ratings of 15 or 18-we were all under 11 in junior school,jo frost (of supernanny and 'games cause violence in children' pseudo journal fame woud be having panic attacks).

The first game I remember playing was Commander Keen, but I didn't know it was called that. I called it the "arrow game" because you used the arrows on the keyboard to move. Despite that being the state of my early childhood, I did memorize how to boot the game from DOS (even if I didn't know what was happening) just from what to type in (as in, the sequence of keys, which was quite long). Lol.
I am old. I could go as far back as atari. But one of my favorite real games I remember was final fantasy X. I thought it was amazing. Spent many hours beating it.
The first game I played that was my favorite for a long time was Final Fantasy X. Took me hours and hors to beat it but I loved the graphic back then.

I'm 57 and have worked in IT most of my life. My first game on any computing device was called Hamurabi or Hamurabi's Laws. I played it in 1973 at a science museum called the Omniplex. I think it was in Oklahoma City or Tulsa maybe. That game turned me into the geek I am today. I was 9 and personal computers weren't a thing just yet!

First game I played was probably something in the arcade - Space Invaders or Asteroids? I don't remember the first arcade game. I do remember the first time I played a 2600, and the game was Adventure. It blew my mind (and is still fun to this day).
My most favourite video game is which I like that most is outlast 2 as scary and survival game great graphic and it was one of the kind of survival game
Super Mario 64 DS. Had no clue how to play it, but oh man was it awesome. Grew up watching my brother play SM64 and OOT on an actual N64, so having my own was just too great. That thing never left my pocket.
Soulcalibur II for Gamecube too! Oh man that game still holds up, what a classic.

that is both an amazing and super addictive game to start off your gaming history!, it is still played today in its original form as well as mimicked by many indie developers so it did something right.
I remember that, a butcher horror/survival classic.
I doubt that it was the first game but maybe Zuma is the first game that i really remembered.
Or maybe the game from Windows OS like Spider Solitaire.

CS 1.6 is definitely one of the first games I ever saw with my own eyes - my step brother loved it.
Oh man, what an intro.
The principal game I have any positive memory of playing is the Apple IIe port of Mario Bros. at the nearby primary school. It was enjoyable to play alone or with another person while utilizing a blend of a console and one accessible joystick. I even played it with my instructor on a couple of events during break. It allows players to pick their beginning stage to a certain degree however I for the most part bounced in from the primary stage for simple extra focuses and didn't ordinarily make it farther than stage 24 or 25. It was a boisterous, splendid, lively interpretation of Mario and the NES and arcade forms came as a slight disillusionment to me when I played them later in spite of the fact that I actually delighted in them. I've played a ton of different games since those rudimentary days yet Mario Bros. is the one that got my affection for games ready for action and even these days, nobody would need to endeavor to talk me into a fast multiplayer round or two.
