superwellfan Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Certainly can't remember for definite what the first game I played was, but because I was born in '92, and have 3 older brothers, we had all manner of games systems before my time, like Amiga and games like this... God I was shite at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Ah f**k Prince Of Persia. The number of times I fucked up jumps and the wee c**t fell to his death instead of leaping across a tiny gap had me in paroxysms of fury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Might have to play PoP again soon. Was a quality game. Anyone ever play the sequel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minertaur Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 My first gaming memories would be Sonic and Road Rash. These were games that I would normally sit and watch my brother play before failing myself to do anything worthwhile. Other games we had of the top of my head would be Sensible Soccer and James Pond. These were all for the Sega of course. I then got a playstation for learning to swim ( ) and the very first game we got was the Die Hard Trilogy. PC wise? Total Annihilation. Scenes.

Miguel Sanchez Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 The first game I can distinctly remember was Aladdin, on my next door neighbour's SNES I was quite pish at it. Was pish later on when I got the game and console myself too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Njord Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Pong type stuff on the Grandstand console I think. They were all the same game but labelled as tennis etc. First spectrum game, maybe attic attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were given away to unfortunates in Wales. What were your best sellers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bestseller would have been the Spectrum by a country mile - if the factories in Prestwick and Dundee could have made them fast enough!Helped me hone my sales technique, though, steering the computer novices towards more expensive or less capable machines. Shifted a lot of C64s and a fair few Orics (horrible wee things), but not that many Dragons. Got a bad press, did the Dragon- there were a lot worse home computers around. Like the palette of Atari 400s my boss thought we could shift..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

young_bairn Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Remember playing on a bbc computer when I was v young. Games were on cassette tapes. The game I remember is the frog crossing the road so this is probably the first I played. First console for my birthday or Christmas was the master system (1). Had a duck hunt style game and a motor bike game built in and played these quite a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd_is_God Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 King of the Jungle on the BBC Micro was a favourite of mine in primary. Ctrl+T at the menu to enter teacher mode allowed the difficulty to be raised, equalling more points. Re-loading the game after finishing allowed for unbeatable high scores, as noone else seemed tobknow about Ctrl+T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess noone knew the Crtl T (I certainly didn't) or they did and were just pish at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Bandicoot Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Was Given a PS1 and a copy of Crash Bandicoot for my 5th birthday. It took me fucking forever to get 100 percent. Been a game junkie ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
