Was Wow your first game?

I think everyone had this game for the NES right after Mario and Zelda

I took my kids to a large indoor fun park. And everyone was in the bouncy castle or zip lines. They have a nice arcade, but among the 50 to 100 people in there no one was playing the machines.

Even have an air hockey table. One of my favorites.

The new generation just isnā€™t into doing these kinds of things. They can get 1 million games on the phone.

Ah yes laser tag. That was so much fun. The laser tag place I went to wasnā€™t near an arcade. It mightā€™ve been near a comic book store.

My earliest memory is looking up in some ancient Medal of Honor game and not being able to look back down, trundling through fire and trying to kill myself with grenades to reset it to absolutely no avail even after I respawned.
I was immediately hooked.

I forget did you ever go to the arcade in castles n coasters? Back when it was like, new? That stuff was awesome

Morrowind. Found it in used games section of GameStop back when first xbox was a thing.

I played games most of my life, my parents played games and got me into the hobby.

Actually yes it was.and ai got totally addicted to itā€¦but that worn off a long time ago.

No, Pong was my 1st video game.

Dang, really? Thatā€™s a bummerā€¦ Sounds like it was probably for the best then lol.

My first MMOs were EverQuest and Runescape.
My first console games were Perfect Dark and Rampage on the N64.

Heck no. My first game I canā€™t remember for certain but it probably was an infocom text adventure around 1983-1984 time frame.

Yes we had computers back then (for you 20 somethingā€™s that got jokes!)

Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt combo on the NES in '87.

I had a playstation but gameboy advance pokemon silver was probably the first game I beat multiple times / collected in. I think long car drives were the main factor why I played it so much. I for sure wasnā€™t allowed to bring my gameboy to school when Iā€™d first gotten it.

Intellivision, Atari 2600, Commador 64 in the 80ā€™s and early 90ā€™s.

Then came the Internet and those fancy dial up modems, Warcraft, Starcraft online.

Asheronā€™s Call first mmo.
Dark Age of Camelot. Long live Albion!
WoW Nov 2004.

The rest is history. And judging by reading some of these posts, there are some old doods out there! Iā€™ve been thinking of a new guild ā€¦AARPā€¦so all us retired peeps can hook up and play at all hours!
