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 Jestzer: 8/26/2014 4:10:34 PMActually, some of the first games I ever played were Gnop and Dark Castle on my parent's college computer, but that doesn't count since it isn't a dedicated gaming console. Original GameBoy. Super Mario Land was the first game I owned for it.
