Do you remember the first game you ever played on your computer/PC ?

[tomwalker154]

Hi guys;


What is the first computer game you've ever played in your life?


I don't remember exactly but this game always bears in my mind:


What's yours? Please post images for everyone to imagine easily

 

[Bastrophian]

Well, i dont really need an image for mine. It was Plants Vs. Zombies =3 . The second was Elder Scrolls Oblivion! X3

 

[Palin]

Oregon Trail! The school only let you play that=p

 

[taarna23]

Number Munchers. At school. On an Apple II GS. On a VGA screen if I was super lucky. Monochrome if not lucky. I liked the green ones more than the yellow or white.

Gold Rush! and Codename: Iceman and all the Sierra games.....i wish i could play them all and be remake some of those Sierra games, especially those two....there is a site with a ton of DOS games in browser, i dont want to advertise it though if i'm not supposed to

also WIlly Beamish I LOVED THAT GAME

 

[Isaac The Red]

Boulder Dash 2 on C64

 

[Skurge]

First game I can think of played on PC might of been Warcraft Orcs and Humans.

 

[The Stranger]

Command & Conquer Red Alert on PC.

 

[Touchfuzzy]

Nope.

 

[KayZaman]

Chip's challenge on Window '95

 

[GoodSelf]

When I was in preschool/kindergarden, the computers had Bugdom 





At home, I would play Freddi Fish! (its the earliest game I can remember XD)

 

[Rinobi]

I started pc gaming about 10 years ago, so I'm thinking Fate from wildtangent games, or maybe Silk Road, an old MMORPG.


Edit: There were pc games well before those but my gaming memory is filled with N64, Gameboy, Dreamcast, PS1, etc...

 

[EternalShadow]

It's gotta be Monkey Island 1 or Day of the Tentacle or Sam and Max or Damage Incorporated or Thinking Things Collection 2, then I was "upgraded" to stuff like Zoombinis, Marvis Beacon Teaches Typing (for kids), a mathsy puzzle game and Step On It, Solitaire, Tomb Raider 1...


I do not know which is the earliest, but if you grab the first that came out chronologically, that should get you pretty close - I am going to guess Prince of Persia.

For PC I started with The Secret of Monkey Island, ahahahah. I loved the brilliant and nonsensical humour there.

[AceOfAces_Mod]

F-22 ADF and Homeworld 2. Gameplay for F-22 on the spoiler (can't find footage from the original version of HW2).





I've also played Heart of Darkness.

 

[baufian]

Earliest one I can remember playing is doom.

 

[cabfe]

I've tried several the same day, on a computer (a Thomson TO7) at school.


One was called Tridi 444 and was a Connect 4 type of game, played with an optical pen.

I can't remember all of them, but there were plenty of games I played when I first started using a computer. The ones I can remember at the moment are probably Sonic R (racing game,) Aladdin: Nasira's Revenge and Virtual Cops. I think Virtual Cops is the very first. Other than that, there are plenty of online games, the ones I currently remember are Ronin and Ghost Motel. XD On RPG-level, it's definitely Aveyond.

 

[Ms Littlefish]

Not really. At least not the first one. I never had a computer growing up, but I do remember playing things like Math Blasters, Oregon Trail, and Putt-Putt at school and the library. I also remember playing a lot of Minesweeper and various I Spy games on my aunt's computer!

 

[LaFlibuste]

The earliest one I can remember is The Incredible Machine. My dad had brought home a computer he was repairing for someone and we tested it afterwards with this game. I'm not sure exactly how old I was, but it ought to be before I was 5. I was truly amazed.



EDITkay, looking at the release date for this (1993), I might have been 6 or 7. My memory is a bit fuzzy. It still was a while back, though. I was basing my original calculation around the idea that I don,t think we had our SNES yet and I thought we got it at 5 years old christmas, but maybe we already had a SNES (I doubt it) or I was older when we got the console. Anyway, who cares, right?
