    when i was six or so, played a lot with my sis on her old playstation one. mainly Croc (a neat jump'n Runner about a cartoonish Crocodile. its actually pretty good.) and Demos of GTA 2, pacman world, and several fighting games on those Demo-CD's that came with magazines or were for free, you know, with a dmeo of a fightign game with only 3 characters on the demo and stufff, or a timelimit on the playing.

    I'm the only girl at home, except my mom (and she works overseas) so I'm basically in a harem. My uncle brought home his playstation at home when I was in primary school and my dad and brothers installed games in the computer too, and because of this, I grew up as the only girl in the class who played video games =.= and only a few guys could relate as well. A sad life~~~ no one could relate to me at all~ TT^TT I especially loved God Hand, Samurai & Dynasty Warriors, etc \m/

    I was the only girl in my family (well, my mom was at work all the time then) and I had my big brother and my dad with me all the time. I was around 4 or 5 or something and my brother had an N64, a gamecube, a gameboy, a gameboy color and a game boy advance (wow) . I think Wind Waker was one of my first games as long as some pokemon and mario. We also had the video game channel on all the time (my brother was/still is a loser). we had gold and silver, crystal, yellow and im pretty sure we also had blue. we had mario 64 and super mario world whatever yoshi something omfg. can you say it was a dream childhood or what

    was never a fan of video games when i was younger and just preferred watching TV when i was like 9, so then thats wehen i got my 1st game console the N64. so then he bought me a game which was called Jet Force Gemini. at 1st i didnt like it but then as i played i really liked the game and the gameplay was fun and werid at times and the story was awesome its sorta like a mix between Halo and Gears of War. also dropped the game when i was younger since i didnt know what to do then now (currently 18) still havent beat yet BUT the OST is awesome

    this scared the shit out of me since it sounded like something from a horror movie

    another great track

    I was addicted to it when my dad bought us PlayStation. And the game I was addicted to when I was little is Harvest Moon.

    I missed that time...

    ah, I remember it like it was just yesterday. It was the magnificent game-boy color and I was playing Pokemon yellow. Oh pikachu, why did you leave me? (I was 5)

    I practically grew up on Nintendo, more specifically the Super Nintendo. My aunt and my cousin, who I grew up with, had one and played it quite often, so once I got old enough so did I. I'll always have such fond memories of games like Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, and Gradius III.

    Even now every now and then I'll hook up the old Super Nintendo and reminisce about the good ol' days

    it was dark. . . .I was alone, scared, and wounded, thinking I could not get out of the darkness I was struck with depression. BUT then, suddenly I saw a light, a very bright light and that light was tekken 3 and ever since then I have never left the light of video games <3

    Do't remember how I old I was, but I guess around 6. My cousin got a NES and a gameboy advanced, and I used to hang out with her a lot when I was younger. After that, I guess I just got hooked 8).

    I am trying so hard to remember... I do find it funny that I have played some games way older than me though... I remember for the longest time my dad had a PSone in my room and a PS2 in his and not only did I get to play Spyro, Crash, Army Men: Sarges Heroes, and Pokemon yellow, blue, and crystal version on a original black n white GameBoy I also played Mortal Kombat original and two PS2 versions Unreal Tournament, Grand Theft Auto 3 or 4(can't remember) Kingdom Hearts 2, and final fantasy VII. But I think the first video game I ever played was Spider-Man for PSone or Galaga. I also had countless hours of Gauntlet: Dark Legacy, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 1 and 2, Zelda: ocarina of time (Uncles Nintendo 64), and Super Mario Bros. (SNES At a Boys and Girls Club after school) stored up for me to never forget. I also have every part of Spider-Man (PSone) memorized. My dad also was the first to introduce me to RPGs since he was a big D&D player and after my first game of Pong and Galaga I have been addicted to Old school Arcade games and most Atari games including Adventure home of the very first Easter Egg in Video Game history and of course TRON. Holy Crap!!!! I am a proud to be gamer, nerd, and geek. I already knew this but I didn't realize how big the impact was until now.
