couldn't find a screen shot of the game in the net. but it was on a XT 3000, it was a game where you were a Eskimo and had to jump between icebergs in a river, every time you jumped you scored points, if you got to the border of the screen of jumped in the water you died and the game was over.
It was a blast when i was 4yo.

The earliest gaming memory I have is a kind of handheld toy that I got for Christmas. It had a small monochrome screen with a very small number of pixels. It came with a bunch of punch cards. You could insert one punch card at a time, corresponding to a different game. I assume that the card simply told the device which game to load from its ROM.
The games were all pretty simple. There was a Galaga-like game (only with extremely simple graphics) whose punch card said it was "bean shooter" or something like that. There was artwork, I think on the punch cards, that tried to give each game a "theme" like that, though in reality it was only ever a few black pixels on a gray screen.
I think it had a red trackball as a control input.
I've never been able to find out what that machine was called, but it gave me a lot of entertainment when I was a kid, before I was tall enough to play arcade games, and before we ever got a PC or a game console.

Maybe someone here can help, but the first vidya I remember playing to completion was a PC game about going through different prehistoric periods to learn about dinosaurs and collect eggs via minigames, until you had them all and hatched them all with little magic rocks. At the end if you had all the baby dinosaurs you pushed a t-rex off into the ocean or something.
I've been trying to find the name of this game for years and I still can't find it.

Not as great as you would think. At the advent of multiplayer you still had to pay to dial out. So a single night of playing vidya and crawling BBS could get expensive quick.

>>14177159
I was lucky enough to not have access to internet until well into the teen years, and boy golly was it a fun trip back then. No steam/CoD monopoly meant that the meat of the player base was still semi evenly spread across different games like Unreal, Battlefield, Quake, Serious Sam, DooM, Tribes, etc… Multiplayer focused games didn't die within a month, gamespy was still alive, WoW was just getting some serious traction, but it wasn't cancerous just yet.
Even before that I can't really say, I was just a wee lad, blowing cartridges for fun. Game trading was a really quick way to lose friends if you fuck it up by damaging it or lending a game that wasn't your own to someone else. Since nobody spoke english or moonrunes in the old country, we had a hell of a lot harder time figuring out how to play said games, since they rarely came with a manual, let alone a box. But hey, we managed to beat Pokemon using nothing but trial and error, so there's that.
There was an adventurous atmosphere to gaming back then.

I don't think there are restrictions on how old you or your games have to be, people discover vidya at different times depending on where they live in the world and their financial situation.
Some countries get video games and consoles years after their release, some countries don't get them at all and people resort to importing or buying from abroad while they travel, some people couldn't afford a console until well into their teenage years or early adulthood…etc.

I'm also struggling to remember the name of this series of games where you play as a cartoon rabbit who goes around a music-themed world and you have to do a bunch of mini-games where you play instruments and shit. I distinctly remember there being a part where there's a goat playing a drum set on the street, and I found that part to be very difficult because I didn't actually pay attention to the instructions for that part, so I just started randomly spamming buttons for an hour until it eventually worked.

There's also another one that I can't put a name to, also a C64 game, it was a single-screen sort of thing where you played as a crab and had to collect worms that emerged from bits of the background whilst dodging jellyfish… I may be misremembering shit, though.

Father use to let me play these two games when I was 2 years old from what he told me. I think it was a good set of games to start off with.

Hearthstone is just a low-IQ ripoff of MTG. Even lower-tier than Yu-Gi-Oh. At least YGO worked up to being mechanically diverse enough to be on the same stage as MTG. You think 25 years from now Hearthstone's going to be around? Fuck no.

Always kill the yellow guys. When I got the game I thought it was funny how the cover makes it clear who the "Rush'n"s are.

Online gaming was almost entirely made up of tech-oriented adults with money to spare. The big upside of this was a community with an above-average intelligence. Any time you had a problem, you were expected to at least try to solve it yourself or read the manual. It was common to see people ask a question and get "RTFM" in response. Not to say people weren't kind though, because everyone was in uncharted territory and we knew it.
The vidya themselves though? There was a lot of trash out there, it just wasn't usually being sold as AAA gaming like today.
Also there was no real voice chat solutions outside of calling people with your actual phone, so that kind of sucked. Roger Wilco eventually solved that but the voice quality was shit back then because plenty of people were running 28.8 kbit dial-up connections which also had to run your game. It's kind of amazing that netcode could even support that at the time, but then game developers had no choice but to make it lean.

We ran a BBS and later a small ISP out of our house so internet access was cheap for me, but otherwise this was a major downside of the time. Things got better quickly though, once the actual internet nodes started opening up.

The video you posted as evidence showed why some people remember Turbo buttons making stuff go faster as opposed to slower.

That game had some great mods too. I know my love for Soldat is fueled by the time I spent playing Liero.
Overall I have to say there are quite a few oldfags with great taste here. And the unexpected nostalgia… wow.

Look into it as an adult. The game is pretty fucking legit. It's a port of an MSX game, so it's perfect if you enjoyed La Mulana.

Pretty sure this isn't the first game I played, but it's the oldest one I remember. You're in a huge open field getting attacked by robots or something that shoot fireballs.

The first games my parents got for our PC was Tomb Raider and Bubsy.
The very first videogame I played was on an NES, but I can't be sure which game it was, even though the one my family got came with Super Mario I only remember watching my brother and sister play it.
The first games I actually remember playing was Kirby and Gremlins 2.

I remember playing these on my grandmas computer waaaaay back, i don't know how she got them or even why, but she did, she also had other games like, captain blood, some french space game that reminded me of old Journey album covers, a cab(?) game set in some cyberpunk future where taxis have chainguns and shit on them and they pick up fares while killing people.
The only game she had that i could even halfway understand was some sort of early childhood educational game where you answered a green worms word questions and dumped slime on bad guys.

Works on my side, judging by your error you might have to install Flash Player for IE. Try going here:

That's one I have not thought about in years, remember playing a shareware version of it a lot.

That taxi one is almost certainly Quarantine, there's a sequel too if the first doesn't look exactly like what you played.

Back then, almost everyone had some kind of joystick and learning a flight sim didn't take months, for the better or worse. Played lots of SWOTL, Red Baron, MS Flight Simulator, US Navy Fighters and so on.
