What was your first PC game ever?

Just curious to see what were some peoples first PC games they ever played. Mine was King's Quest VI HEIR TODAY, GONE TOMORROW.. its a really old school 1992 adventure game. Played it since I was in elementary. To this day, I still have the game, but never finish its quest. Now I feel like taking out the old old 75Mhz computer out and play. Haha. Thats call old school.

What was your first PC game you ever touched?

Mine was KKND (Kill Krush N' Destroy) Extreme. It was a 1996 game, 3d and all. It was like a command and conquer but better. OH MAN, those DAYS!!! CLASSIC, played for hours until i lost it some how or someone stole it!!!

My first game I ever played was Duke Nukem 1, at the same time was playing LHX Attack Chopper or something like that. The latter being obviously a helicopter game which for the time was quite good. Difficult too for me anyway. All this had to have been very early 90's.

My very first game that I played on my own computer would have been Diablo 1 about a year after it came out, whenever that may have been.

However now that I think about it, I think the very first game would have been in my grade 3 class. On those ancient MAC computers. It was some Island game. The exact details of it I forgot but obviously it had to be educational to be in a classroom. But for pure fun then it was the above games, DN, and LHX.

I'm one of the only ones that doesn't play games on my pc! I use it for internet, films, music, and msn!

I can't remember the first game, even though I've only had a few!!

Virtual Springfield was one of the first. Or on my grandma's PC, we had some crappy F1 game and Warcraft!

Desperate to get a copy of Virtual Springfield now!!

Star Trek:kobayashi alternative. I think that is right. old game on Commodore64. I think you were on a mission to find "Captain" Sulu. Then there was another one on C64 called Strike Fleet, where you were in charge of small naval fleets on different missions. The good ol' days! On the Star Trek game, you had to type commands with words that the game recognized. I remember finding out that it knew every cuss word in the book, and if you typed 3 of them, security would lock you up. That was cool.

I don't do much with games either, but I think the first one I tried was an early "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider" one.
