29. My first game was either Space Invaders at the movie theater or Pac Man at Valu-King. My aunt had Pong previous to that but I wasn't allowed to play because I was too little(her husband is an asswipe to this day). My homies all got Ataris when it came out so I played whatever was playing at their houses. One thing I especially loved in my earlier gaming years was playing Parsec on the TI-99. That game was on a cassette tape and is the first vertical shooter I rememeber. My mom got me and my brother a NES in 86 I think and we just kind of went from there. My enthusiasm for gaming will no doubt continue to wax and wane as it has from day one.

I'm 26.


I can still remember begging my parents for a Atari 2600 for Christmas.


I can still remember when the NES was new, I can still remember the commercials advertising the NES system, Metroid, Zelda and Mike Tyson's Punch Out.


I can still remember when arcades blew me away and had me wishing I could play those games at home.

I can remember playing Atari 2600 and Intellivision when I was 3-5 years old, can't remember which came first in the househould. My dad was somewhat of a gamer at the time, now he just plays golf.

Asteroids, Pitfall, Adventure, and strangely enough, Black Jack for the Intellivision dominate my early gaming memories.

My mom tells me I've been playing games since I was 2, which would make it an even 20 years I've been doing this. She says I was still in diapers (I guess pull-ups technically if they existed back then) when I'd stand on stools at arcades playing Pac-Man

I remember the Zelda one, with some moron running throw dungeons yelling Zelda! and throwing bombs all over the place. I thought it was stupid but funny.:jest:
