First game played ???

[Rog69]

My first game was pong too, played on my uncle's black and white TV.
My first arcade game was Space Invaders, my brother and I would share a game with me doing the steering and him mashing the fire button.
THe first computer game I played is a bit hazy, probably something typed in from a magazine into my cousin's Acorn Electron.

Anyone remember a game called Paradroid, damn that game had me hooked for MONTHS!!!

First one I can remember was frogger for me. I must of been about 10 or 11.
The first time I played it was when we used to get 20 cents (I think) for the old 1 litre glass bottles if we returned them to a store for refund, after that well I think I "borrowed" a bit of change from time to time from the folks.

The first computer game I ever played was on the c64 of a friend of mine and it was either ghost busters or transformers one of those two.

Bloody Frogger! I'd completely forgotten about that! Irritating game!

It was Pong in a local Shakey's branch. I was probably seven or eight that time. After that, we would often play the game with the ship dropping depth charges and the first person-view racer before the pizza arrived.

I loved Paradroid, there was a 3D spectrum version called Quazatron that was very good too, I often play that through an emulator. I also had Paradroid 90 for the Amiga, it was very hard if I remember rightly.
