I'm not totally positive because I think it was when I was about four, but probably Contra for the super nintendo, though it never interested me much, my first favorite game was probably... Super Mario World (thank god it was a good game!)

Either Jump Man for C64 or Pong on the old arcade machine at the airport (that machine lasted as long as the airport, too - didn't go until they did major renovations in the late '90s).

Edit: Digdug FTW!

Stonekeep, when I was 4. It was really scary back then, especially the tentacle doohickey. Now, not so much.

What's Stonekeep? It was an old DOS RPG for windows, back when everything was geek humor and inside jokes. AKA, before games went mainstream.

I remember playing Pong on the display set-up at Montgomery Wards. Does Mattel Electronic football count?

When I was really young, we used to have those floppy disks that didn't have the plastic covers, it had 4 dos games on it that were like pong but I can't for the life of me remember what they were called! I do remember the PC itsself was black!

Other than that, the first game I played properly was probably Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis...what a classic I loved it! Just found another copy & started again woohoo!

bugs bunny lost in time (on play station 1) i was like 5 or 6.

Aw, I can remember playing and loving that game, (I think it's still somewhere in my closet) but I don't think it was the first game I ever played.

I can remember as far back as my brother lifting me up to reach the controller of some really early snooker game. That was when I was about three.

I think it was an old Magic Schoolbus game-- the one where you're in space. It was either that or Fury 3.

In the beginning, there was playing the Super Mario Bros. / Duck Hunt cartridge pairing and Mickey Mousecapades on the original NES. I don't know which one was technicially first because we got them for Christmas when I was at the tender age of about four years old, in 1986.

Starglider, on my first computer, the Amstrad CPC. Huh - my very first videogame experience and it was actually in glorious(ish) 3D! I was five. Aww, bless.

Either Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis or Monkey Island 2, I cant remember the precise order, I can remember tons of really ace games that dad would bring home, but I can't remember the names of any of them, frustration!

I'm not sure if I could remember that far back. I remember my first system. The Atari 800.
Yep, I was originally an Atari kid.
I used to play Wizards or Wor, Minor 49er, and Getaway.
My Atari still works too...I really should hook it up one of these days...

Wow, you guys make me feel old.
The first game I played was either Super Mario Land or Braminar, but I don't really remember.
The first game I played all the way through was probably Kirby's Dream Land 2. One of the oldest games that I still play from time to time.

When I first got at an apple computer when I was 12, we had some awesome weird tank game called Specter that I would like to play again, but I cannot find it anywhere!

And Shuffle Puck, I can't remember what came first exactly.

Mine would be Super Mario Land 2 on the original Gameboy.
I was about 6 years old back then.
I remember constantly running into the very first goomba and die before I figured out you were supposed to jump on them...

The earliest game that i can truly remember playing was the original Perfect Dark on the N64 and I then also remember playing for almost a year straight.

It was the gateway game that started me into the older gen stuff and then forward into the more current stuff. Since the PS2 I have gotten at least one of the consoles on the day it was released every generation and keep a computer that costs more than my car.

I played a lot of random stuff on the NES and old Windows 3.1/Apple 2e, however the first game that really ever had any meaning to me was Myst.
