In reality the first game I played was probably something like Pong. But my first real memory of amazement and joy from videogames was a Caleco vision game called Spy Hunter
Spy Hunter was amazing. I played it on the C64. I got into that game a lot back then. I've tried playing it again recently, and I just couldn't get into it like I did back then, though. I guess I'm spoiled now.In reality the first game I played was probably something like Pong. But my first real memory of amazement and joy from videogames was a Caleco vision game called Spy Hunter
You're in good company, then. A lot of us are old geezers here. I cut my teeth on the Magnavox Odyssey.On pc it would be wizardry on 5.25 floppy, sir tech.
On console it would be the og pong, cause my Dad was on point in the late 60's.
I've seen things you people would not believe.

I took it as OG being "original" Pong.I know what pong is but what does the "og" stand for?
You'll be surprised what we would believe - give us an example, please.
The usual is "original" but in wider context can also mean either 'exceptional' or 'old school'.what does the "og" stand for?
I can actually remember playing PongI'm an avid gamer, but I've been trying to think of the first games I remember playing and really loved. I remember sneaking into my cousins dad's study to boot up his mac to play Monkey Island, where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? And Myst (which I wasn't very good at). If you're a gamer, what do you remember playing and why?
The first PC game I can remember playing was DuckTales: The Quest for Gold in early 1991.

My first PC game was a twofer, a two-games-on-one-CD title packaged with a Windows 98 desktop PC purchased by my grandfather. On it were "Freddi Fish and the Case of the missing Kelp Seeds" and "Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo". I still have these but on Steam now, just for the occasional nostalgia trip.
My first console game on the other hand, was Spyro A Hero's Tail for PS2. That game never got old, in fact I still have it AND my PS2. I hope AHT gets a Remastered edition like the original three Spyro games did, for as good as the old game was, my PS2's power supply went bust so I can no longer play it!
I have very fond memories of both game types, and both games.
You're in good company. I think the majority of people here are actually old fogies.This is going to be a funny answer for all the young people. This was my intro to video games
Some of the older generation will recognize this as Pong. It was the Cadillac of video games. O.K. go ahead and laugh. I know I’m old. We used to set for hours and play this game. There was also a rumor that playing this game over time could ruin your T.V. What you are seeing above was it. Hit the little ball with the paddle.
