GeorgeBloon Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Forums have been pretty quiet for a little bit so thought I'd add a discussion topic that might be fun. I'm curious to know what everyone's first game they ever played was, obviously if you're not comfortable with posting anything that's totally fine just sit back and read some responses So. My first ever game I played was Beyond Good and Evil on the xbox original (which I highly recommend you play, it's on Steam), my mother bought the xbox for the family and it came with BGE so I played it since it was all I had and I fell in love with it. You'll notice the pig in the box art down below is my current Steam and Discord photo. Spoiler Essentially the game is a detective game, you play as Jade in the beautiful city of Hillys where constant attacks by Domz aliens reap the land, hired by a secret associate it's up to you to with your camera and report on the secrets the Domz hold behind their back. To this day I still play this game, not just for the nostalgia I get when playing it, but just because it's such a fun game to play, the combat system works very well and for the most part the game is pretty easy in those terms, there are forced stealth moments where getting seen will have you insta killed but it fits in with the vibe of the game. The first time I ever played the game I also somehow managed to stealth 90% of the game, only ever pulling out my Dai-mo for forced boss fights, and because of the lack of a upgrade or skill set for the character, I wasn't reprimanded for skipping normal fights, I didn't need to go back and collect XP in order to stand up to the boss. Right okay nostalgia wave over phew, but anyway it's up to you now, feel free to chuck your first ever game you played with as little or as much detail as you want, just chuck the game title and be done with it, that's cool. Psst also hey check out the game on Steam, pretty cheap. Spoiler https://store.steampowered.com/app/15130/Beyond_Good_and_Evil/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCHEFF Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 The Sims 2 on PC. It would've been 2004 and my older sister (who was 14/15 at the time) had recently gotten the game to play on her chunky beige white computer with pink stickers. Little 4 year old me walked into my sister's room and asked what she was playing and she let me watch her create a Sim, furnish a house and play around for a bit. I distinctly remember looking at the map view of the neighbourhood and being amazed for whatever reason. I asked her if I could play and she said no for now but said I could play the next day. I remember going to sleep super excited and nervous, but sadly don't remember anything from my first time actually playing the game. Been an avid Sims fan ever since.

I wish The Sims 3 ran better though. I would write a list about what I'd want in The Sims 5 but that'd make me appear to be more of a Sims nerd than I'd like to appear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired Veteran Cecil Posted October 19, 2019 Retired Veteran Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 The first game I got my hands on was Lion King on the PS1. Absolute bomb of a game. Running away from Scar for whatever reason was pretty scary and always Mum and Dad play that part. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonberry Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Hard to pinpoint exactly what the first game would have actually been, but most likely one of the following off a best 100 games for MS DOS shareware CD-ROM - Traffic Department 2192 Descent - Destination Saturn Wolfenstein 3D Doom Duke Nukem I & II Halloween Harry Magic Carpet Rise of the Triad Heretic Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold I also recall jamming the OG Sim City (off a floppy disk lmao) but not sure if before or after my wormhole was blown by the sick graphics of freeware DOS games For lulz, feel free to google any of those if you aren't familiar with them and have a look at dem graphics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ragdig Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 My dad really liked GTA Vice city when i was young and for some reason we were allowed to play despite the fact I was 4. Apparently my little brother would pick up "ladies of the night" and I would purposely drive my cars on the footpath. I also recall playing Call of duty on the Wii which was fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
