First PC was Doom at my cousins house like right after it came out or Oregon Trail. I didn't get a PC for a years after that, then a family friend gave me an old PII when I was 8 or so and I had a bunch of old, old games.

I get the feeling I'm younger than most of you but here goes.

First game that I ever played was probably a Putt Putt, Pajama Sam, Freddy Fish, or one of the other Humongous Entertainment games. This probably started at age 3.

First real game I ever played was Age Of Empires. Probably around age 7-8.

Still love Age of Empires 1 and 2 to this day.

when i first played Doom it was bloody scary, something about the way the enemies moved, it freaked me out a bit

I remember the first few games I played, but I can't remember the actual first game.

One was The Oregon Trail, and then that hove and space shooter game that was included on the Windows 95/98 CD!

First Game was Super Mario Bros
And First PC games were Dangerous Dave and Prince on DOS.
And then I don't remember the OS but I guess it was Windows 95 I played Doom and another awesome game whose I only remember the exe file name "BM". I am still searching for the actual name of the game so that I can play it just one more time. It was like a third person shooting game and you can run up ladders and pipes.

We were constantly getting yelled at for screaming too loud anytime anything happened lol

I mean it's not like you were exposed to nearly as much violence and scary shit when it came out as you are today.

The first PC game I really played and got into was Diablo II. My God did I spend a lot of time playing this game and if I had the time nowadays like I did back then I would still be playing it!

Definitely one of the all time classic PC games that has remained relevant for many years and will always have a place in my heart.
