The original Ghost Recon. 

What do they know of England, who only England know?

Quake with my dad when I was a 5yo. He'd move and aim and I'd shoot pressing ctrl. The first one I played by myself was Unreal Tournament, a couple years later.

I remember playing a DOS game, but I can't for the life of me remember which game it was. I just remember opening up DOS to play.

 

A game I do remember though:

I was curious and wanted to let out a sense of nostalgia and I wanted to know what was the first PC game you have ever played. Mine was TMNT Mutant melee when I was around 5 and it was on an old e machine the family had. Mmm... That single core celeron goodness. I thought the game was okay and I liked the opening when they showed cut scenes from the cartoon, but then I got bored and never played it again until I was 10, then I lost the disc.

On PC .. I remember sitting on my old mans lap commanding a unit to attack a sand bag wall on the original C&C ( I woulda been around the age of 7) I think it was running Windows 3.11 along with DOS ofc, that's my earliest memory of PC gaming and what got me started on the PC. Not long after that memory I remember having my own hand-me-down Frankenstein PC that was built around a 486/100 or 486/66 CPU and could run a game like DukeNukem and Doom with terrible frame rates.

 

However ..Gaming in general was a few years earlier on the Atari 2600jr,Original Gameboy, and Sega MegaDrive(original).. games like Centapede, Atlantis, Pacman, Space invaders, BattleZone, Warlords, ..then Sonic, Streets of Rage, Splatter House, Steel Empire etc etc.

CPU: Intel i7 3930k w/OC & EK Supremacy EVO Block | Motherboard: Asus P9x79 Pro  | RAM: G.Skill 4x4 1866 CL9 | PSU: Seasonic Platinum 1000w Corsair RM 750w Gold (2021)|
