I watched my cousin play games like Spiderman for the PS1, and Spyro. I eventually got a PS1 and a N64. I was about 5 years old.

I started with a Sega Genesis. My DMom would play Sonic and I would grab the other controller and run around on the screen. We played Street Fighter but, I didn't really understand it until I was about 5. Eventualy we got an n64, PS, PS2, you know how the list goes.

I played pinball on a computer, the pinball that comes with windows.

Was also my introduction to computers.

I had a neighbor who had all these awesome games, I wanted one badly. I was seven at the time and for my birthday my parents went out and bought we a gameboy sp and a pokemon game. It set off a chain reaction. Eventually I was introduced to flash games and online games. But it all started with that SP

yo

I play games since 1997

the first game I played was 'Back to the Future 2' for NES
Then I enjoyed other NES games such as 'Super Mario Bros.',
'Battle City', some games with ninjas and so on.

Then, I tried 'Doom' and 'Half-Life' and soon I felt in love with PC games.

That's mah story

I started playing games when my brother bought sonic 2, and I was always watching him play. I decided to play it one day and I was instantly hooked lol.

atari, for a short while, then when the first NES came out my parents got it for me. I was hooked on mario and duck hunt for ages it seemed. I've pretty much been a gamer ever since.
