Donkey Kong on the Coleco Vision.

Second was Venture.

The first electronic game I played was probably Galaga in the arcade. On the computer, we used to play Trek on the SWTP 6800 at school (programmed in BASIC by ourselves, based on recollections of another student from the game on a mainframe.)

The first game I owned would be Flight Simulator 2.0 (bought out by Micro$haft later in life)

Either Fatty Bear's Birthday Surprise or Mickey's 1,2,3s

Dungeons of Daggarath on the TRS-80. I had some games for my VIC-20, but I can't remember exactly what they were. If I remember correctly my VIC-20 had a huge 3.5KB of RAM, and a high speed cassette tape drive.

Darn, Arvon beat me to it. It was at the airport in Denver. Then, PacMan.

Football manager on the ZX Spectrum console in the late eighties. It belonged to my brother and I got to play on it sometimes. It had a handful of colours with pixels bigger than god knows what. It used casette tapes to play games. I thought it was awesome.

First arcade game: Galaga, I think.

First console game: Space Invaders on the Atari home console.

First computer game: Some medieval kings and castles game on an old Apple computer. You had to solve logical and mathematical puzzles to advance. You went from solving stuff for a soldier, then a wizard, then a princess, and finally the king. Or something like that...

Let me see...

1. Cute little thingy called "game & watch". I believe the first one that I have played was "Octopus".

2. On my old Atari - Combat, Pac Man, Defender and Space Invader.

3. Old Apple II - Dog Fight (I think) or maybe Taipan?

6. Old IBM XT at school - Zaxxon

5. My first PC, 286 - Bad Blood (Origin System)
