What Is Everyone's First Game and System?
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?

4 Replies80's baby. My mother had an Atari with Frogger and Qbert on it. Once that broke we got an NES but all I had was Excite Bike, some monster truck game, Zelda, Ninja Turtles, Batman, Duck Hunt and all 3 Mario's. SNES is where I hit my stride as a gamer, I don't think there was a game out that I didn't own. I think the biggest transition in gaming evolution happened from the 80's to the 90's. Went from 2d side scrolling to full on 3d free roam. Amazing times. Now it's just standard and under appreciated.
