Zork was my first too. I used to love the old school adventure games back in the day. The Legend of Kyrandia series was one of my favs if any of you guys remember those. Very good memories.

My first PC game was "Elite", played on IBM PC AT in around 1990. Do people even remember those things today?

The first PC game I played may have been Thief. The first one I bought for myself I think was Theme Hospital.

I don't remember. It was either Swashbuckler or Burgertime on Apple II, or Alpiner or Munch Man on TI99-4A, if those count. Prehistoric games, those. The first more well-known game I played I think was one of the Leisure Suit Larry games.

Well, it's sort of a tie, but one is a "learning" game. Anyway, it was on a Tandy computer about 20 years ago now. The learning game was called "Kids on Keys," while the real game was Wheel of Fortune.

Let me tell you, though- when you're 4, you really suck at Wheel of Fortune.

I got a extremely late start into PC gaming, the first PC game I ever played was Rome Total: War and the second was Diablo 2. Two great games to start with.

I first played Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator. I also had fun with Flight Simulator 98 because I loved crashing into buildings. Then 9/11 happened and playing that game kinda freaked my parents out.

Don't remember exactly but I think it was something like:

Processor: 166 mhz

Ram: 2/4 mb SODIMM(100 pin ones)

Video: Integrated 8 bit

CD Rom 2x speed

I'd look for my copy but I don't feel like going in the basement today.

My school got a couple computers when I was in Junior High and they installed Oregon Trail on all the computers. Countless settlers have died from Cholera because of that decision.

I think it was one of those ridiculously hard but addictive SSI D&D games(maybe champions of krynn).

I miss Strategic Simulations.:cry:
