OPWOLF / WOLFSTEIN 3D
That was my first game since Dad had just bought an Ollivetti pc that was operating under DOS . Other games in the same computer were PRINCE OF PERSIA and the third was for Car racing though i do not remember the actual name.

Apart from their PC exploits, they were a player in the mainframe market 60-70 years ago. Then they had a decade or so in minis before getting into the PC game ~40 years ago—at which time they also offered one of the first laptops. Then ~30 years ago they produced the first [as far as I know] netbook, ~15-20 years before they became a big thing for a while.
It's likely relatively unknown in USA as its product tended to be licensed by the likes of Xerox, DEC and AT&T. Its market is local these days as far as I know, after it suffered the fate of many Euro computer companies back then, squeezed by the emergence of US competition and the cheaper Asian manufacturers.
Next you'll tell us you didn't know France had a forerunner of the WWW a decade before the WWW hit the big-time—or that Russia had a forerunner of the Internet in the 50s

The first game I remember playing was Super Mario Bros, that was also the first time that I was asleep after 12:00 am that I remember.
The first video game I played was Dig Dug on the Atari 2600. I remember being astounded, not so much with the game itself, but that I could control the game. I have rarely watched TV from that moment on.
River Raid on the Atari 2600. That was my first console. I had 3 games River Raid, Space invaders and missile command. Later i acquired Dig Dug.
After that i got a Master System and the first game i played on that was the build in Alex Kid in Miracle World. The first cartridge i got for it was Kung Fu Kid.

First game I ever played was a drawing game called Itsa Bitsa (no it wasn’t imported or anything it just had a weird name) at the ripe old age of 5. Basically all you did was draw stuff to solve problems. I credit it for giving me my mnk skills.
Hello, I'm Wamsie, the first game I ever play was Paceman and "Need For Speed" when I was in University.. Apart from that there a also other interesting games like zoomer, where more people find it interesting to play.
The earliest memory I have is playing 1985 Super Mario Bros on the NES with my mom. My sister got an NES for Christmas and I would play during the day while she was at school.
The first video o could remember playing is assassin's Creed it actually came with my Nokia asha phone so I actually didn't get the chance to choose another
My first game was GTA Vice City. I still remember the time when my brother and I were playing it together and admiring the layout of the game. Time has passed and now we continue to admire, but the continuation of this wonderful game, namely GTA 5, and the features that it gave us. Sometimes, even now I can go into this game, turn on the kiddions mod menu and begin to arrange chases with the creation of full-fledged chaos. You could say this is the first game franchise that introduced me to video games.

Interesting thread, and I'm about to show how old I am
First video game was on the Sinclair ZX81, the very first Kevin Toms Football Manager game back in the early/mid 80's. That device had an unstable RAM box so I quickly upgraded to a Sinclair Spectrum 48K. I kept playing the FM game but the first non-football game I played was called something like Emerald Isle and was a text adventure. You literally had to type "go north" to move locations.
My first PC game was a classic and scared the living daylights out of me, Alone in the Dark. Using odd camera angles as you moved through the world monsters appeared out of blind spots and this really was a scary game. Still have fond memories of the original but is probably unplayable now.

Looks like there's a remake or remaster—wording indicates former imo—in the works:
Alone in the Dark on Steam
Return to Derceto Manor in this reimagination of Alone in the Dark, a love letter to the 90’s cult classic horror game.
The first game I remember was Pong on the Atari 2600 with these paddle controllers.
First game ever was the first wolfenstein. I also playing a Mario kart clean called whacky wheels. Fun times and local 2 player was possible.
Touched a PC for first time in 2004 and played my first video game.
Unreal Tournament 2004. no-Guts.
I have used a few screen names over the years. Have 10 different ones on Steam.
