Technically probably Reader Rabbit or Math Rabbit my father put me playing on our dos computer.
Beyond that for legit games it may have been something like Oregon Trail, A police game, or a shooter game. I don't remember their names. I may of played an Atari game my older brother had but I don't remember any moments of it other than watching others play that. "Love is hot, Truth is molten!" |

RE: What was your 1st computer and the games you played.
I started 'playing' with computers in 1975, when PCs hadn't been invented yet. So my 'playing' was coding and debugging Burroughs L series and B series 'mini computers' (the size of a whole desk or closet!) in GP300 Assembler, and Cobol level 7 and 9, with punch cards and punch tape!
I was a (IBM) PC (office) user at work from 1983. My own first real PC was a Macintosh Plus ($3,995) with a 20MB external HD ($3,000) in 1985, and I've never looked back. After playing stupid Pong for 3 minutes in the late seventies, and mindnumbing PacMan and infantile SuperMario (Donkey Kong) for 2 minutes each in 1981/82, I swore off 'games' on computers for good. Games are for children. For adults games are a waste of time. Time in which you can do so many other, interesting and useful things with computers. And, since 20 years, the interwebz. |

RE: What was your 1st computer and the games you played.
Games development pushes the absolute edge of what a PC can do - how can you not respond to that? Sure fine, assembler is all cool, but a well made game with 3d graphics and shit - I still remember something like ten years ago with Counterstrike, shooting a computer to pieces and they had a frikken fan and a hard-drive in there. That's art man, attention to detail, and fine art. I haven't gamed much lately but games have only gotten more intricate and cool.

Coleco Vision. I played Paint all the time at 3 years old =p Then I got into the Atari 2600
I'm not a non believer, I believe in the possibility of anything. I just don't let the actuality of something be determined by a 3rd party. |

A hahahah nice pic.
I didn't have my own computer when I was a kid because we were poor. But we had them at school and my friends all had them. I played Oregon trail, police and kings quest series, and most importantly I played leisure suit Larry. Name drop bitches!
