I find it so interesting how strong of friendships and communal bonds can be made from playing games with friends and strangers alike. I was wondering where everyone's origins came from in terms of gaming. For me, my first game was Altered Beast on the Sega Master system. My dad picked this up for me in the 80s when I was only 4. We kicked ass together and it was pretty graphic for a 4 year old to play. Punching and kicking zombies and beasts that exploded into pieces lol It was rereleased on the Sega Genesis (which I still own). It's still a lot of fun to play today too.
So what is everyone's story here?

Edited by post920: 8/26/2014 4:53:31 PMThe first game I ever remember playing was a flight simulator back in the late 80s. It didnt have any graphics really as it only had dials and readouts for elevation, pitch, etc. It was on a computer that only showed the colors orange and black. I was pretty young and didnt really get how to play though, so I would always crash. I must've spent a hundred hours trying to figure that game out.
