I also remember playing Sun Tzu's Ancient Art of War by Broderbound(?) a lot too. Heck I think that might be that game that led to games like C&C, Starcraft and others.

AlanArpeggio,

I remember Sopwith, what fun!

The first game I ever played was Gunship on a Tandy, it was ok. My first game that I really played was Pirates! Wow! I still love that game! The Space Quest series came next; true classics!

Everyones seen this before, right?

Oregon Trail and Lemonade were the first games I had played on my Apple IIe. These got me hooked though:

Archon
D&D Pool of Radiance
Loadrunner

Mechwarrior 2 was the first game I went nuts over for the PC.

Nascar 1 from Papyrus. Pitiful graphics, but if you like Nascar and had a wheel, extremely fun

Played King's quest 1 on my 286 and was stunned by the new world. I still remember the king croaking at the end of the game, toppling in all his DOS based pixelated glory...

Ah, fond memories of days of yore...

[Darkterritory3]

Lightspeed, police quest1 and monkey island1 in this order!

[eL_NiNo]

Karateka on Apple II =)

Back in the early 80's, the text adventures from Infocom on my Commodore 64, especially Deadline. They came on 5 1/4 floppies (the drive cost $200 back then!) and took an extremely long time to load new areas. I played one of the games from a compilation on a 386 in ~'90 and was amazed that as soon as I entered a new room, the text was immediately displayed onscreen. Links 386 and Wolfenstein 3D were pretty fun on that same 386.

ahhh....Bard's Tale 2 for my c64 and I finished it! Didn't finish many games back in those days. And for my first real computer (a 386-16) I played the hell out of this racing game called stunts. I downloaded it from one of those abandonware sites and damn. I don't know how I played it. We have come a longgggggg way. LoL
