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?

I remember having a commodore 64 when i was a kid but can't remember the games i would have played. So i'll go with either sonic, fantasy zone or that light gun game with the bloke on the train tracks on the master system.

First console was the Atari 2600 and, I can't say for sure but, my first game must have been something like 'Pitfall'.

I got a gameboy color in the late 90's at the tender age of 7. Pokémon Yellow.

I've been playing games as long as I can remember. The earliest memories are of pitfall on the Atari 2600. My dad had always been into computers so we had stuff like wolfenstein and doom too. Of three siblings I'm the only one that still plays.
