Super Mario Bros. I don't think I have to say anything else. I've been a gamer since I could hold a controller.

Frogger at age 1. Rad Racer at age 3 when I knew what the hell I was doing. Then Mario, then for life.

I would always play games as a kid like TMNT 4 and Super Mario World. My first system was an SNES but I used to play NES as my Uncle's house before the SNES came out. Then the PS1 came out and we got one for Christmas. I used to spend hours playing Resident Evil, Crash Bandicoot, and Metal Gear Solid. I would have to say MGS turned me into a gamer geek. I used to play it so much that when the remake came out I beat it on extreme mode without even trying...I knew what was going to happen before it happened and where everything was...man I was such a loser. Then Devil May Cry hit and I lost my life for awhile

Once the SNES Hit i lost my life to Vid-yuh games but it all started with That damn Star Wars Vector game for the Arcade

**Barkworm** · 07-09-2005, 01:59 AM

Once upon a time, it was Tetris.

Super Mario bros 3 on the NES. But when The Donkey Kong Country series came out on the SNES....i was hooked.

Dinny · 07-10-2005, 02:25 PM

First game I really got into was Sonic on the Sega Master System II, I played quite a few games then, but I suppose it was LoZ: A Link to the Past which hooked me.

PDM025 · 07-10-2005, 11:27 PM

It was first a next door neighbor of my grandmothers, I played the Super Nintendo. Then the N64 came out, I got Super Mario 64 and then I was really into video games.

*XERO* · 07-11-2005, 07:15 AM

It was the Man...

Pac-Man, that is.

The Legend of Zelda (NES) when I was a wee tyke. I didn't comprehend the super-complex plot or understood the depth of the characters or the vast richness of Hyrule, but I did know that if you have full health, you can shoot lasers out of a sword. I think I also thought that the Triforce pieces were pizza slices. Radical.

The original Super Mario Bros. for me, after I played that, I was hooked.

**GK Punk** · 08-13-2005, 08:28 PM

For me it was probably some random game on one of the old Atari systems. I've been gaming ever since then... Super Mario Bros, Metroid and Zelda are the ones that kept me going though. Easily, Three of the Greatest games ever Created to this day.

*Storm Wolf* · 08-15-2005, 06:51 PM

oh...I have no Idea.

I think it might have been Bubble Bobble or Joust.....I do know it was Nintindo that got me.

Mario Kart was the first racing game. Ahh...the memories. *sighs happily*

*XERO* · 08-15-2005, 07:28 PM

For you Stormy, I always thought it was Operation: Wolf.

*The Stryker* · 08-15-2005, 09:56 PM

Or Castle Wolfenstein

*Storm Wolf* · 08-16-2005, 04:40 PM

Haha....

I've heard of Castle Wolfenstein but what is Operation: Wolf?

*Hannah* · 08-16-2005, 04:46 PM

Sonic Adventure and SA2. >_>; I played Sonic Adventure at my cousin's house and liked it.. alot. And when I found out there was a sonic adventure 2, I almost died of happiness. ^^ Now its my favorite game <<

*The Stryker* · 08-16-2005, 10:07 PM

For awhile i lost my faith in games altogether. it was around the time of the fall of N64.

But Recently RE4 rekindled my love...just thought i'd add that.

Cerpin Taxt · 08-16-2005, 11:36 PM

I've always been a bit of a game geek. My old band was named the Knights of the Round after the FF7 summon, and we did "Those Who Fight Again" covers and once did a cover of "Fright Flight" from UmJammer Lammy. It hauled ass.

Anyway, my first video game that I remember playing was Pac Man. The first game I remember obsessing over was Mortal Kombat when it first came out. Yeah, my parents weren't all that good at raising me...
