I will show my PC gaming history 10 years old i remember playing neopets and runescape classic. PKING and remaking new characters was so fun played gunbound, maple story :facepalm: and started my counter strike around the age of 13 :fullofwin: I remember playing other teams at RUSH when it was so popular back in the days now it's gone :alone: I was a very competitive player in team games. Played DotA tournaments like the one in DNA grand opening and got 2nd place :okay: and various others online. Even SC2 Tournaments but there are too many pros now playing CS competitively and it is dying. Waiting for DotA 2 and be pro again LOL |
This is the first game I really enjoyed playing. So simple and basic, yet quite addictive. |

to preface this i'm 25 probably first or very close to would be the Atari 2600 that we had as well as an even older Atari computer of some sort, then came Apple 2 i belive as well as the 4.5" floppy on the older model macs Then we had a Sega Master system, i remember space harrier gave me nightmares and other games like Shinobi and others then came SNES, this is when my dad sort of got into gaming playing a few titles here and there such as Link to the past, etc. Mario was everyones first game for SNES most likely, and then kind of grew up with SNES with titles like mario kart, Illusions of Gaia, mario RPG, Earthbound, Shadowrun, and countless others, nothin like going to the video store and picking up the square box the cart came in lol Then we started to get more and more computers we probably had 4-5 computers which ran varrying degree's of games like floppies, Leisure suit larry, Skifree on the older models, etc. N64 next, to this day still the best christmas present ive ever got, it may not be the most expensive or fanciest, but my parents built it up so much towards christmas that they could not afford it and we'll buy one later on, then to my suprise i unwrap a brand new N64 on christmas morning :fullofwin: waited and waited for Ocarina of time, i remember i was hooked to getting it ASAP even when i saw the very first development shots in gaming magazines etc. Funny enough when "gaming" computers were picking up speed shortly before half-life came out we had bought a decent rig with a voodoo graphics card it was basically a mid-range rig id say, shortly after getting it our house was broken into and the computer stolen and we ended up getting basically another half the value of the original computer to add towards the new one, so we went and built an awsome rig and got a bunch of brand new games including Half-life to test it started playing alot of half-life and eventually a friend of mine in highschool told me about this new mod called counter-strike, I can honestly say i played when the game was basically months old into launch and played it for numerous years after CS_docks and the M4 with a scope were the shit Never got a PS1 but played gran turismo with friends here and there Bought a PS2 for Vice City, it ended up being worth it, played a bunch of different games, enjoyed Suikoden 3 alot Then got into MMORPG's with Everquest, Best gaming experience of my life and although ive played WoW fairly extensively and the WoW world is beyond impressive, i still laugh at the people who think WoW is the shit compared to what Everquest was pre-luclin expansion If anyone is interested in seeing what made EQ so great, a guy on another forum was discussing EQ and he played during the game time period i did, i copied what he had to say about EQ VS WoW here, i think it's the best i've heard it summed up: Spoiler! So from there on basically bought every new system outside of original Xbox, currently has PS3, 360, Wii, most gaming i've done in the last 2 years has been PC and playing Bad Company 2 on the 360 over my lifetime we've probably had like 15-18 computers, By far the best computer i've ever owned is my Vaio VGN-FE630 My favorite games with Everquest being No.1 http://www.tentonhammer.com/image/view/65350/preview Fallout Series, 3/New Vegas http://www.geek.com/wp-content/uploa...llout-3-12.jpg Zelda Links Awakening http://mercuryice.com/vgrevs/Legend_...creenShot2.jpg Battlefield 2142 http://prezwho.com/wp-content/upload.../08/bf2142.jpg Earthbound http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SR_xbV49Tm...earthbound.jpg http://www.mobygames.com/images/shot...references.gif http://www.ibiblio.org/GameBytes/iss...ones/indy2.gif http://www.scummvm.org/data/screensh...max-5-full.png http://images.wikia.com/fullthrottle...le_-_large.gif |

For consoles, my list is pretty small (compared to some of yours, at least) Atari 2600 NES (though, sadly, I only got it a year or two ago) N64 Gamecube Xbox 360 I used to play Goldeneye and Mario Kart 64 for hours with friends. The 360 has maybe 15 hours of use on it, even though I bought it when it first came out. The Gamecube has even less... maybe 3 hours of use? lol As for PC's, I used to geek out on a couple of text-based RPG's (Star Trek was one, I think, and the other was some detective game) back when my parents bought our first computer. Then once we started upgrading, I began wasting hours on games a few games. The most memorable ones were Simcity Total Annihilation (still one of my favourite games) Aces of the Pacific Star Wars: Dark Forces Star Wars: X-Wing (and vs. Tie Fighter) Counterstrike Apart from those, I haven't done much in the way of gaming. After Counterstrike 1.4 grew stale, I've pretty much steered clear of games. I'll still pick up one of my Rock Band/Guitar Hero guitars with a friend and "jam" while drinking, or maybe head over to a friend's to play MW:2 or Battlefield on their PS3, but that's pretty much it now. Unless Angry Birds on an iPhone counts...? :lol |
grade school - neopets, pokemon, diablo 1 and 2, starcraft. the sims high school - ragnarok online, gunbound, CS, warcraft 3, dota university - dota, starcraft 2 in the middle of those - ff 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 13; kingdom hearts 1, 2, bbs, 358/2 days; all the metal gear since mgs; other random ps 1, 2, 3 games.

i personally started playing PC games when I was probably 5-6...it was that good old Mixed Up Mother Goose nursery game. First 3D game was The Need for Speed SE when I was 8. I had strict Asian parents that deprived me from video games so I guess I'm sort of making up for it now haha. I remember i wanted Gameboy Colour so badly. I was fed up and few years later finally saved up to buy a PS2..but didn't want to blow all my savings on a gaming console (my money concious habits started early). at the end of grade school I got into online gaming with starcraft for a few months..sucked ass but moved onto Counter-Strike 1.3. I probably put a good 1000-2000 hours on that during my high school years. I got into Battlfield 2 and was hooked on that for maybe a year and half. Easily another solid 500+ hours on that. Again, retarded parenting. I was not allowed to play on weekdays...so on weekend evenings I end up staying up. When I started university, I finally bought myself a PS3 (my 1st gaming console)...which is why I'm glad there's HD remastered games coming back on blu-ray nowadays. All the while I come back and play the occasional popular FPS titles like CoD4/MW2 & L4D/L4d2 on PC..till maybe a year ago when my comp started having some troubles. I've been pretty busy the past two years and probably game a few hours a week...but at the same time I still buy games regularly so my backlog just gets bigger. I've recently gotten into RPG games, amazing stuff but they are just so massive in nature that I will probably never finish them with my busy schedule. The current game that I still play on a regular basis would be Gran Turismo 5. You just can't get bored with a good sim setup trying all 200 premium cars and learning and perfecting various racing techniques is quite rewarding. Looking to come back to PC gaming real soon with so many great PC titles returning. :alone: |
