    My first ever game was a terrible little shoot em-up on the Atari 2600 called Yars Revenge. At the time i was 6 and thought that computer games were the most incredible things ever invented and spent hours upon hours playing a game that could never be completed. Ah those were the olden days when video games consoles had wooden veneer finishes and we didn't need this crappy 3d accelerated pap that we have nowadays :p

    I think my first game would have been one of those handheld ones. There was one brand that had a whole bunch of cool ones out(well they were cool then).

    My first PC game was........hmm......probably some crappy learning game that came the computer!
