[sav131]

[dereguedeixe]

So many, but i really have a special memory with mortal kombat shaolin monks

 

[Riyuko00]

Sonic 2 in particular

 

[Coloneill]

It was the Sid Meier games, Pirates, Civilization, Master of Orion, Railroad Tycoon and the riddle & fun games like Monkey Island. Nothing comes close to it today. Developers believes a good graphic beats a good game idea.

Other than that, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. Great arcade game.

 

[rrkun98]

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja serie.

cheap ripoff of pong

The one you hooked up to the TV that had no slot for anything. It was hitting a ball back and forth where you chose between tennis, hockey and a couple others. It wasn't actually Pong, but pretty much a knock off. Got taken away when my dad heard it was bad for the TV. Next was a couple years later (1981 or 82?) an Atari 2600. I think the first one I was into (at home) was Atlantis. Not counting at the arcade - where at first it was all pinball machines and air hockey until they added some video games. Also, pretty much all pizza places in the very late 70s/early 80s had early ones like Asteroids, Pac Man, etc...

[MystrageX]

Super Mario Bros. & Duck Hunt - NES​

 

[Karamchad]

2D platformers were peak gaming design and difficulty
Then warcraft.

 

[mistakenident7]

must've been pong, I can't remember playing the real deal but I remember creating a version and playing that
Age of Empires gets special mention too for its memorable awesomeness

I think the first game that got me into gaming was Tetris, still like to play it.

 

[EpicWaxFlame69]

It's so hard to tell to be honest. Like I could probably say Sonic 2, but don't even remember how fully conscious I was. So maybe either Metal Gear Solid or Crash Bandicoot Warped. I know MGS was Definitley from watching my dad play it a lot lol.

off topic, but I still remember when my dad needed the disc switched for Twin Snakes on GC and my dumbass hits the reset button. and this was before we even had a memory card for it. oof

 

[Bangcoaches]

Hard to say. The first game I religiously played in my life was Real Racing 3.

 

[abarosant]

Ratchet and Clank, that was the first game that make something in my head click.
Before that gaming was a group thing I did with friends, but after that, well I do have around 600 physical games of which I have completed around 400.
And digital, on Steam I have around 1k games and I have completed around 300 of them.
