I think it was some skiing game my cousin had on his C-64, back in 1984 or so, eventually that same computer came into my possesion about 3 years later and guess what, I had Bubble Bubble, that was one of my fave game and the only one my mom played [img]smile.gif[/img] .
You can download it from http://www.theunderdogs.org .
But the first game I played that I remember the name of was Bruce Lee on the C-64, man I loved that computer.

Hmm I have no idea what machine it was Binatone or something
Was like a tennis game through the TV
2 white bars as bats and a square ball......oh and a line to show a division--real basic stuff
That was it hehe

Ok so not a real game by todays standards but followed then by
Asteroids on the ATARI 2600 !!

The first game ever was some platform game on the commodore at school [img]smile.gif[/img]
Can't even remember the name...

The first game I played on a pc was Battlehawks (battlehawks 1984, was the full title I think)

Then there were a really simple version of Knights and Merchants, don't remember that name either, and the all-time classic Master of Orion (and my first ship, created in someone else's save, was the Doombird [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] ). After that came UFO-Enemy Unknown which kept me and my brother chained to the computer for days)

The first GB game was Tetris, and later on I got to play an Asteroids version and Shufflepuck on my grandparents' Mac.

The first RPG was some kind of text adventure, don't remember which one though, not a classic anyway.

Ah, the good old days when you were happy with simple but addicting games, low graphics and terrible sound...
At least you didn't need a faster computer every six months to keep up [img]smile.gif[/img]

Ah, Underworld II - the first time I ever beat an RPG without any hints or tips - WOOHOO - I was lost in the first Underworld. First RPG ever played was ZORK - "You are in the dark. You are about to be eaten by a Grue". Light somebody - QUICK!!! . First game I played on a system that I owned was Eye of the Beholder - just love those ole pen and paper maps.
