Basketball Atari 2600



It was either that, or ...

Pitfall Atari 2600



I believe I was about 4 years old, so 1989.

I played all the games on an atari2600 eastern European clone. The first one was a 3vs3 character football (the real one not american). The first PC game i played was Delta Force Land Warrior but the one i ended up loving and still installing on my PC to this day is Warcraft 3 (both of them).

I think it was Mario on an arcade.

My first PC game was Recoil, it came free with the $1600 Compaq Presario PC in the autumn of 2001.

First console game would be NFS Underground on a PS2.

Frenzy and smurfs on the Atari. Not sure which one is first.

Playing kingsquest on the commodore/amiga and bugging my parents with spelling the commands correctly is up there but I know from a time line perspective the atari pre dated that.
