In What Year Did You Start Gaming? And If You Can Remember What Game

For Me It Was 2006 And The Game Was Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3

#2

The one with the numbers

#3

1994, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 on the Mega Drive II. I was four years old. That game will forever hold a special place in my heart.

#4

I started with an Atari in the 80s but what year exactly I don’t remember. On the other hand I didn’t start gaming seriously until I bought my 360 in 2006. So I guess it depends on how you define gaming. Is it the first time I played a game which was 1980 something or in 2006 when it became a daily thing?

That is what I figured but I have played more as BIGB EC so I wasn’t sure what to respond because I predate guides, gamer tags and achievements because I am old but not that old.

So this really makes me a rusty spartan: Missile Command on the Atari 2600 back in 1981

2007, at the age of 15, I bought my first xbox 360 and it came with Halo 3. Was convinced to by a close mate that told me I had to play Halo and mass effect. No regrets.

That is an awesome game! It is one of several PS1 games I will never get rid of.

Indeed. I had much more fun to play its sequel: Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro. God, that game is just so nostalgic and awesome.

I started on a Gameboy early 2000s. I didn’t get big into gaming until 2008 which is when I started playing Halo 3. If I had never played Halo 3 I probably wouldn’t be here today wanting to play Infinite as I would’ve never gotten into gaming at all. This would also eliminate my dream to be a writer.

I honestly cannot remember much about Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro. I did have the game but I don’t think I played it as much as the first one.

I think it was 1995 or 1996 on the NES, SNES, n Genesis.

I started at around 2007 age 6 with Pokemon Ruby, Kirby & the amazing mirror and GBA games as my first ever videogames that I played the most in my childhood. Then when my brother go a ps2 I played “Jak n daxter the precursors legacy” and Spyro a LOT lol and since then I considered myself a videogame fan and got interesed in Videogames as a whole.

I have very fond memories of playing halo CE and halo 2 on my dad’s xbox when my mom wasnt home, because she would let me play the game since i was like maybe 3 or 4 at the time. Good times.

I was gifted a Playstation for my birthday in 1997 along with the games Crash Bandicoot 2 and Destruction Derby 2 so I guess that is when it all began.
