Telltale Games

Dr. Zoidberg · 08/09/2008, 08:01 pm

What is the first video game you ever played?(If you don't remember, the first one you remember playing.)
The first game I ever played was "the Game and Watch Gallery" for the original Game Boy.(If you don't count that as a real game, the first "real game" I played was "Super Mario Land" on the Game Boy.)
What's yours?

Probably Columns on the Mega Drive. Or Sonic 2.

I'm not sure if I got it before or after the Amiga though, so it might have been something on the Amiga? I had Crash Dummies, a game I'm pretty sure was called something like Ozone, but can't find anywhere on the internet, a demo of an Aladdin style game and a Lotus racing game, so it could be one of them.

splash1 · 08/10/2008, 03:20 am

i'd have to say Riven or was it Sonic 3?

Molokov · 08/10/2008, 03:36 am

Possibly Pong or a similar game on the Atari. It was a long time ago....

t_mack · 08/10/2008, 04:00 am

First Game: probably Odell Down Under or Oregon Trail

First "Real" Game: Centipede/Millipede for the GameBoy

ShaggE · 08/10/2008, 04:26 am

Hmm. I don't think I remember. I know it may have had graphics... some 'bleeps', and maybe the occasional 'bloop'... probably had some manner of inputting commands...

Oh! It had a thing where you did things! And it might have had characters!

I just googled "that game with the things", and I randomly clicked the last link on the second page, and it came up with God of War. So, I guess it was God of War. But I've been playing games LONG before God of War was even speculated upon, so this may not be accurate. But Google doesn't lie... I don't know what to believe anymore!

DarkStar Runner · 08/10/2008, 09:02 am

Oohh.... It was either Tomb Raider of FFVII.... Gosh, it's so long ago...

Should I mention I was three when I started playing?

I think I was about 3 when I started playing too.

someguyfromazoo · 08/10/2008, 09:59 am

What was it?Something on the NES...I had a boxful of games, but I can't remember which one I played first...

dentbuds · 08/10/2008, 10:18 am

umm... i think super mario bros. for the snes. something like that!!!

someguyfromazoo · 08/10/2008, 10:19 am

That's the first time anyone has made me feel old. Or that they were young...

I think mine was Donkey Kong on a Dragon 32. It ran on tape.

**Jake** · 08/10/2008, 11:10 am

The first game I remember playing was I think Red Baron, but there was also some game I, I think, involving a donkey going up a road and dodging logs or something? Or possibly Pole Position in the arcade with my dad...

David E · 08/10/2008, 11:32 am

First Video Game: Probably Super Mario Bros. for NES. I was terrible at it. That would have been followed shortly by Duck Hunt, The Legend of Zelda, and whatever other games my friends owned. I wasn't allowed to have video games back then

First PC Game: Battle Chess for Tandy, possibly. Maybe Word Munchers on the ancient school computers.

Botap · 08/10/2008, 11:40 am

Hmm. It was either Joust or Zork. I also got a high score in Kaboom! and sent a picture to Atari so I could get a patch. I wonder what happened to that thing...

Super Mario All Stars had all 3 of them in. /:

I don't remember the first game i ever played, but I do remember the first game I played for the N64. It was Toruk. I rented it when I was like 6.
THAT DID NOT GO WELL!

Mike Haley · 08/10/2008, 12:39 pm

The first video game that I ever played was most likely Asteroids or Space Invaders for the Atari 2600 that my parents bought when I was around three or four years old. Although, I spent more time trying to take the unit apart to see how everything worked than I did actually playing the games themselves. Following that, I wasn't allowed to touch another game console for a few years.

The first video game that I was serious about was Super Mario Bros. for the NES. I had the Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt cartridge and the zapper accessory.

TrogLlama · 08/10/2008, 12:52 pm

I think... maybe... uh...
It was either Pokemon Red Version (I got caught right in the middle of the huge popularity hike; sad thing is, I'm playing the games to this day. They're actually pretty good games, though; most everything else from the franchise is... well... pretty stupid. Especially the anime.) or... um... probably Super Mario World. Maybe some car game that I vaguely remember playing.
