Way back when my brother had floppy discs, the firs game I played was Missile Command. Still one of my favorite today.

on a mac (If it was even called a mac back then), Pajama sam

on bootcamp probably something like Crossfire or warcraft 3

On my actual PC: World of Warcraft

Hercules most likely. First FPS was Doom though.

It was Galaga my bad.

It was either solitaire or the screensaver pong game on windows 11

I always scratch my head when people say games used to be better. Some were, but on average, no. Not at all.

They were definitely different, but I don't think better. I think the "better" part comes from nostalgia, not an objective evaluation.

Free Realms in 2009 was my first PC game, and first MMORPG.

Lego island 2.  I remember it like it was yesterday.  So we all got in the car and my dad (who i have not seen now since 2006. so the story takes place 2004-2005 im not sure when) turned and looked at us and said we were going to go buy a computer and so we went to what i remember looked like s best buy and we went and the guy was talking to my mom and dad and i was touching the monitors and the guy that worked there told me to stop and i felt really embarrassed.  I have no idea what the computer was all i remember thinking it was a lot of money because i couldn't count that high and my mom said its okay you will learn. Then i remember going and each of us (my sister and me, my other sister was probable ...1 years old) and i picked lego island 2 and some racing game that i think was lego as-well and some learning game my mom made me get and i remember being mad because i wanted fun games not learning games.  But i remember my parents setting it up in there room and i just remember jumping on there bed while they installed windows.  I don't think it was a tube monitor i think it was a tower and a slimmer monitor, But anyway then the next morning i remember waking up running to the computer putting the disc in and the little install wizard popping up and i thought i broke it and then yea i played it and it was hard but i think i got close to the end of the game. I do remember in grave detail the racing game because i  could never figure out how to go and it made me mad.  But the learning disc game thing was really cool i remember looking at muscles and wondering WTF was the parts on the girl 3D model.

I still have the disc i found it after we moved to get away from my father. its erm scratched really bad and ik that it workers some but after about 30mins into the campaign it starts to run into some problems  

[werto165]

Minesweeper anyone?

[F2K8]

I still can't remember what it's called.

It was a 2d side scroller, very unpopular, you had to kill green aliens and it had a great soundtrack! Played it around 2001! Anyone have an idea of what it may be? 

Other than that.. Solitaire!

My first PC game was Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, and I first played it in late 2005, if i recall.  I ended up breaking my pc by accidentally uninstalling it....

[Pinkamena]

Midtown Madness 1 & 2... still play MM2

[GymothyCharles]

If you're asking PAID games, minecraft. If free... probably minesweeper

Edit - my first PAID game was actually roller coaster tycoon 1.

[snowbear972]

Ok...I am going to show my age here but Zork was the very first pc game I ever played. The first game I played with 3D graphics was Wing Commander.

[Deus Ragno]

It was a game I can't remember the name of when I was 5, so I'll just go with the one I do remember. Age of Empires when I was 8. Love that shit. Take your Starcrafts and Civilizations and shove 'em. Age of Empires 4 lyfe.

[Padunkadunk]

Warcraft 2  Played Super NES long before that.

[Sonefiler]

Runescape, I was 8 at the time. I was stuck on he very first part on tutorial island for an hour. I remember my mum had to tell me to actually scroll the page down so I could see the 'click here to continue' option. ..
