I think... Gran Turismo?? I am a big fan of racing but the handling of TOCA Touring Car Championship never agreed with me despite my love for 90's BTCC. I had a better time with the more sensible handling of GT1.

I have fond memories of a yellow Impreza. I couldn't drive the RWD cars back then. I also remember me trying to use a racing wheel, I was equally bad at it but at least I was having fun!

In early 2000s, I got hooked into an online MMORPG called Tibia with some friends. At it's peak it had something like 70k players online. It was cutthroat, if you died you'd lose hours and hours of progress. I was hooked at one point doing 14h days. That experience has been impossible to recreate in adulthood.

Commander Keen in my early years. But the first game that really got me into 3D gaming was probably Acclaim's ShadowMan. It's still an absolute masterpiece. Great visuals, amazing storytelling...and that creepy soundtrack is just burned into my brain. Probably had some nightmares from that when I was a kid. 😄

Elder scrolls V: Skyrim. I got into gaming at a pretty high age(31yo) even though I had played a bit when I was younger, but I wouldn't consider myself a gamer before Skyrim.

I think it was Tetris on the GameBoy, then Super Mario Land 2 and Kirby's Dreamland.

After the mandatory army service I stopped, studied and began gaming again with Portal 1&2.

My uncle showed me the doom 1 demo when I was 5.

Been fucked up ever since.

Tunnels & Trolls: Crusaders of Khazan, Railway Tycoon, King's Quest IV: The Perils of Rosella and some car racing game with a Ferrari Testarossa in it (that wasn't Outrun)

OG Fallout.

Wobbly Life on PC, coop with the kids, I really, really recommend that game for kids. Since then we mastered BOTW and TOTK on Nintendo Switch and now are working the ranks in Fortnite.

I really enjoyed secret agent on dos.

Quake 3 was my first but Ultima Online is the one that made me fall in love.

WoW - just prior to BC release

Pilot wings 64 and mario 64 played at my friends house. Only access to games prior to that were Prince of Persia, Myst and spooky-ass Iron Helix on an old Mac II and they were not particularly exciting for a pup of that age.

MacMac (or something like that, because I can't find it anywhere) It was a jump and run game on windows 95. You were a little ninja in a red trainings suit. you had to fight and run your way into a castle. first you were on the outside walls, than on the roof, inside. The final boss was a blue genie. Along the way you had to fight bats and knights, but you could only kick and punch.

When I played pong on a Dec PDP 11 “mini” computer in the 1970s. I was hooked and spent my life playing many games. Into VR development these days Imagineering a Theme Park.

As a little child I watched my father play Diablo. I was always allowed to chose the character he used. The first games I played were Titan Quest and Lego Star Wars, excluding some learning games.

Sonic on sega was the first game I played, FF7 was the first game I loved.

While my first approaches were watching my father play doom and reading him Tomb Raider's strategy guide, as well as playing on my mother's Sega Mega Drive 2, my OWN first games were pokemon yellow and Homeworld, which came pretty much at the same time, and which shaped me all through. To this day I am still a PC and Nintendo gamer

Das schwarze Auge it means ~~Black~~ Dark Eye and is a Pen and Paper Roleplay.

Edit: corrected due to the correction right under me. thx

Hello Kitty No Hanabatake I believe was the very first video game I played when I was like 4. PGA Tour Y2K was a banger too.

Jackal baybee! And 1943. ♡

Bubble Bobble

Laser Blast and Pitfall 2 on the 2600

Deathmaze 5000

First video game I remember playing was Super Mario World in about 1996, when I got a used Super Nintendo for Christmas. It blew my mind and I remember being so impressed when my older brother showed me how to get to Star World, haha

Civilization 1.

Cruisin' the world. Would sit and drive for hours

Edit: just looked it up and it's actually called Cruis'n World

The very first game I can remember was Silk Worm on my dad's Amiga 500. After that, Shadow of the Beast and later, on PC, Command & Conquer.

I can't remember a particular first game. Nethack, various MUDs, Descent 1, Starcraft, and Unreal Tournament (1999) were all reasonably early.

Motocross Mania on the PS1 was the first game that legitimately hooked me. I can still hear the menu music when I think about it, and it's been 15 years since I've played it. Team Fortress 2 got me into PC gaming and I barely ever use consoles now.

First a gameboy advance with three separate games, Tekken, sonic, and f-zero. Then Nanosaur on a very old mac my dad had and his Sega Dreamcast with a few dozen titles. I still think they'd be fun to revisit today!

Schatztaucher

Legend of Zelda 2 on NES. I could not get enough at 4 years old even though I kept getting killed.
