Did you start gaming on PCs or Consoles? What was the first console you played?

[geforceftw]

I started on a DOS PC playing games from that on on floppy disks then moved to PS1, PS2, PS3, and then back to PC.

favorite dos game?

[geforceftw]

I first started on a PS2. It was quite popular at the time

I never really played the ps2. Always wanted one though.

[geforceftw]

Gameboy Color + Pokemon

I think think that was my first handheld combo also.

unless they were gaming during the DOS days (aka old people)

I'm only 26 and I'm already called old. The internet makes me age rapidly.

[Jamdude]

favorite dos game?

I have no idea what any of them were called, sorry, I was really young at the time.

[TacticlTwinkie]

I think the first games I ever played were on dos. But consoles were what got me into gaming.

[LaoJr]

cmon you people I'm only 12 so I played on console then went to PC, my brief history of Console Super Nintendo, SNES, Sega Dreamcast, The first Playstaion, The first and one and only XBOX, the Playstation 2, the playstation 3, then it ended at XBOX 360 then I found the one and only Steam

[Joshua Ondangan]

for handheld my first one was a briefgame (I dunno how to spell it properly) with those tetris then I got my self a gameboy (black and yellow fat one). played pok'emon yellow.

[Extingquish]

I started when I was younger (7ish) on a Wii, as you can tell, I was a hardcore gamer 

[steffen_anywhere]

GameBoy Advance! I still have it and it still works well.

[LOLPhilips]

Started on pc, in '91. I always continued playing on the pc, but had also actively played on ps1 and ps2. I have an xbox 360, did not use it much. And its is very probably my last console ever.

[Darkstar101]

I play games since 1988, started on consoles, in 1990 my dad got a PC and I started playing on it.

[Misanthrope]

I was like 5 or 6 when I used to play the Atari 2600 at my cousins and they we eventually got a Nintendo. Funny thing is that my dad was a lot more avid of the Nintendo than me which I found too frustratingly difficult but my dad stood with it, even beat the Ninja Gaiden games which was mind blowing to me.

[Terosterone]

First console played: NES
FIrst console owned: Playstation 1
First PC/MAC Game played: Original worms on mac

[Thalandros]

PC back when I was 5-6, gotta thank my parents for not giving me the money for a console. EVERYONE had a PS1/PS2 and I wanted in, fortunately I didn't.

[Stefan Becker]

PC and Gameboy Color.

[ObeseWalrus]

I started with the PSOne and then I got a PS2 and A PSP. I got a DS Lite some years later and when it released I got a PS3. Now I play on PC and GTA 5 on my old PS3.

[Dragoneye3769]

gameboy advance

[fishy]

SNES, i still have it and whip it out from time to time

tho only have 2 games left, super metroid and killer instinct

i love super metroid, remember playing that till 2 in the morning (as a kid i usualy went to bed at 9 or 10 )

or killer instinct...remember playing it with my cousin and my bro and just when we got to the 4th last, the indian guy, before spinal, fulgore and eyedol, the power went out, we were devasted, first time we got that far in weeks playing it (with cinder ofc)

[Maxibonbits]

I started on console. Play Station One was my first console.

[RatedBlam]

i 99% doubt ANYONE started gaming on PC

unless they were gaming during the DOS days (aka old people)

 

started with sega then n64 then ps2 xbox gamecube

Why is this? I'm pretty young and I started on the PC somewhere in the early 2000s

We just happened to have a PC, and we also happened to have an F1 game that I liked and that was it, the first time I ever played was on the PC.

What's so hard to believe. Or is this some stupid pun on the meaning of the word PC or something.

[micedits]

I started on the PS1, then PS2 and at the PS3 release I moved to both PS3 and PC.

[RazeG3SG1]

started from Gameboy Advance, now only game on PC

[Leonard]

I selected Consoles because i am not sure what you would label the big arcade game machines fall under. The big arcade game machines is what i started gaming on....pacman and street fighter. HADOUKEN!

[Norwegiantweaker]
