What's the very first game you ever played? - Page 10

Rick Dangerous · 30 December 2009, 02:09

PONG in 1979 was my first computer-game.
Early 1980'ies it was Phoenix, Vanguard, Zaxxon and Pacman on Atari or gambling places.
1982 on my first "real" computer TI-99/4a it was TI-Invaders, Tombstone City, Moonsweeper and Parsec.
First game on PC was something about pushing suitcases around to find the exit. I don't remember the name.
First games on the holy Amiga had been Silent Service and Defender of the Crown.

Pong, but this first proper character game was Smurfs on the Atari 2600.

Bounder on the C64

First game I can remember playing was Miner 2049er on the Vic 20 - I was around five at that time and probably the reason I remember it is that my sister was devastated that my father was selling the vic 20 and getting the new c64. So it was probably not the first. . Then on the c64 the first game I recall playing is Maniac Miner, the first game I played on the Amiga however I recall vividly. It's James Pond.

The first computer game I played was a kind of Lode runner clone at the Leipziger Messe exhibition with a character sitting on a chair at start and monsters running predefined paths (unfortunately dont know neither computer nor name anymore). First Atari800 game was Flip and Flop (http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari...flop_2021.html), later cloned as Clown-O-Mania on Amiga. First Amiga game was Shadow of the Beast.

mine is quite boring today, back then it was nice.

Star trek in basic. Killing klingons was never boring.

The first game I can remember playing I think was an arcade game called Gorf. It was in my local fish n chips shop and I remember being completely amazed by its graphics and sound.

I think the LED game Astro Wars was probably the first game I owned.

Good times.

My first game was a pong-based system connected to TV. just black/white and very big pixels.

After that i got a Sony Hitbit MSX1, my first game on that one was Yie Ar Kung Fu

My neighbour had a C64 at that time with Batman,Giana Sisters etc.

On Amiga 500 it was Ducktales, the quest for gold, i got A500+that game for my birthday (never forget that day i was so happy).

Yes, I think first day with Amiga was the best for all of us.

ridbensdale · 10 July 2010, 16:56

On the Amiga though, it was Cubulus.
