What was the first video game you remember playing?

[SirDJCat]

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.

I'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 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.

Hello everyone! I'm Joe from the Philippines, not so techy but fond of playing Nintendo and Atari games when I was young.
There's nothing quite like the rush of adrenaline you get when you're in the middle of an intense gaming session. You're fully immersed in the game, your eyes locked onto the screen, your hands gripping the controller, and your heart racing as you navigate through each level.

As you progress through the game, you start to feel a sense of accomplishment with each obstacle you overcome. Maybe you defeated a difficult boss, solved a tricky puzzle, or scored a clutch goal in a sports game. Whatever it is, that feeling of achievement is like no other.

But it's not just the feeling of accomplishment that makes playing video games so fun. It's the escapism that comes with it. When you're playing a game, you get to leave the real world behind and enter a whole new one. Maybe you're exploring a fantasy world filled with dragons and magic, or maybe you're fighting off aliens in space. Whatever the game, you get to leave your everyday life behind and enter a world of endless possibilities.

And let's not forget about the social aspect of gaming. Whether you're playing with friends in person or online, gaming is a great way to connect with others who share your interests. You can strategize together, trash talk each other, or simply enjoy the experience of playing together. And with the rise of online gaming, you can connect with players from all over the world, making gaming a truly global experience.

So if you're looking for a fun experience, grab a controller and dive into the world of gaming. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a casual player, there's a game out there for everyone. So why not give it a try and see what kind of adventure awaits you?

Yeah I remember playing Atari and Nintendo with my brother and sisters when I was young. It was such a wonderful experience having quality time playing with them during weekends when no classes.

As you progress through the game, you start to feel a sense of accomplishment with each obstacle you overcome. Maybe you defeated a difficult boss, solved a tricky puzzle, or scored a clutch goal in a sports game. Whatever it is, that feeling of achievement is like no other.

Atari and Nintendo are my favorite video games.

[loneranger]

The first video game i played in my pc was assassinscreed 1 .. and i still love that game

 

[bendenison]

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.

 

[Wwiccks]

My first game was pubg

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.

Alone in the Dark

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.
