I knew how to turn on our computer and get to pac-man or some scooby doo game (the name escapes me) when I was 3. [This was in the days of DOS too, didn't have windows until i was like 6 or 7 or so and we got windows 3.1.]

 

 

 

I think I've been gaming since I was 2 or 3, I'm 18 nearly 19 now. 16 years I guess. :)

 

 

 

I love old photos of me. In diapers still and I'm sitting in the computer chair on the PC, lol :D.

I have a picture of when I was 2 years old and I shoved my sister off the computer. The only games we had then were Mickey Mouse or something...

 

Then I moved to America when I was 4, and I got a good amount of games such as Backyard Baseball. I played those for years before I found out about EA, and got some EA games. I call that the sports game era of my gaming life.

 

Then finally, the big blow. RuneScape and Warcraft. I got a chance to play Warcraft at my camp, and RuneScape, well...It's RuneScape. I think it was about 2 years ago when I first started to really find out what MMORPGS were like...I've been addicted to MMORPGs for a few years now...The MMORPG era...

 

And a new era is on the horizon...RTS...I'm getting a few later this year, and I'm already playing a few free ones.

 

 

 

So to answer your question, I've always been gaming. Maybe not "true" gaming, but if playing children computer games count, then yes, I've nearly always been playing them.

 

(Maybe that's why my eyesight is so bad...)

Probably over at my cousins on his NES. I guess around 1990?

 

 

 

Sounds about right. I got my first NES from my uncle.

 

 

 

He also introduced me to the wonderful world of Doom and Decent :thumbsup:

Not exactly sure. When did the 8088 PC come out? I remember playing DOS games on it with my monochrome monitor.

 

 

 

Where the most excitement was "Open door", "look table", "get key".

 

 

 

Back when you had to type all the commands, and if you got them wrong it would say "I don't know how to do that".

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, God, I'm old.

I was 3 or 4 and first started playing Doom. What a good game that was, I still play it to this day :) .

 

 

 

My Dad introduced me to the game. Granted my Mom didn't realy like it for me to play a game rated M when I was 4.

Probably about when I first got a PS1, when it first came out, anybody know when that is?

 

 

 

about 1993

 

 

 

The PS1 was released 1995...

 

 

 

Anyway, I've been gaming ever since I could hold the controller, which was when I was 3, so that would make 11 years. My first game was Super Metroid on the SNES, and man was that a blast. <3:

1996, first game i played was command and conquer

 

Which one? I get on Yuri's Revenge from time to time. Dying breed though.

 

 

 

Well it all started in 2000...or so when my dad took me to his work. His boss, fairly young and established man, showed me this game called Age of Empires. He burnt the game (remember these guys are computer hardware and software wizzes) for me and I started gaming. The rest is history.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams
