what was the first ever game you played, and just incase we haven't heard of it what was it like??
Mine was Enduro on the Atari 2600 and you had a limited amount of time to overtake as many cars as the number at the top.
wasn't bad
what was yours?

The first game that really really made me feel good was mario kart on the snes. Its amazing that its still a great game to play in this day and age with all these high res graphic games.

One Christmas back in the mid-late seventies, my father brought home a table version of pong (a horizontal cabinet) ... Great stuff! :)
It was River Raid for the Atari 2600.
I was over at a relatives house, my mother's cousins house, and the kids were playing this game.
I was amazed by it, and got an Atari for Xmas that year!
When we finally got the thing running, the game consisted of moving a small white block on a black background left and right. The road was made up of lots more white blocks moving very slowly. Man, that was exhilerating.
The second game we got for it was a space game where you had to dock your ship. This involved moving a small white square through a gap in a ring of small squares. Tedious yes, but still more fun than most of today's games, whose multiple save points make completion an inevitability rather than a challenge.
Control a knight in shining armour through wierd things and over this and that, dodging a giant cat and collecting items as you go.
It's a good game!
Suprisingly from my description.
However I haven't played it for over 5 years so I can't remember it too well.
