You're lucky when i played all the boys wanted to be the barbarian or the elf and many debates and coin flipping would ensue before we could play. Thankfully nobody wanted to be the wimpy looking possibly a girl wizard so i just sat back with some pepsi and watche dthe arguments.
What's the first memorable video game you played?

Personally, I wanted to be the chaos warrior. They always looked so cool. >.>
Edited to say: Coincidentally, that was the whole reason behind me buying Warhammer Online, so I could play as the class that resembled the chaos warriors quite closely.

It was quite safe from that point of view; it was the man-eating toilets you had to watch out for! More games should feature carniverous toilets, I think. They're not just drinking fountains like they were in FO3.Moondoggie wrote...
I had that game but never actually played it. Came with a collection of games i got with the computer. I was too scared to play it because of the name. Willies scare me XD

The first game I remember... Aliens for the PS1, main reason I came out of nappies late and was petrified with fear of the dark, the most memorable though Metroid Prime for the gamecube, the best FPS out there

@FlintlockJazz: LucasArts also impacted my view on gaming quite a bit, as well. I loved games like Grim Fandango and Monkey Island.
Always meant to play Grim Fandango, but my PC at the time wasn't good enough. Got a copy a while back and keep intending to play but haven't got round to it to yet, got such a backlog at the mo.

Oh man Jet Set Wille! Forgot to mention that too! Had it on the Spectrum, I still remember the bizarre looking housewife that was blocking your way to your bedroom and looked like a giant chicken-man...

And another game I forgot to mention! Never did get anywhere with it...

super mario bros/duck hunt was probably the first game I played.
But Dragon Warrior was the most memorable. I still remember almost everything about that game.

I've got book three lying somewhere, Malcolm's Revenge it is called... in that game the antagonist became the protagonist.

"Day of the Tentacle" and "Monkey Island 2". Looking at some of the other answers here, I'm starting to feel really old.

I was going to say how unfortunate you are, then I realized that most of the older games that I liked, I've only played in the last 3 years.

I think there's a pretty varied range in ages here. in fact, I think older gamers are in the majority in this thread for the time being.
I agree, DotT was a good game. I loved the humour in it!

The humour was awesome! They don't really make games like that anymore, now that you've got the great effects it's all about action and looking cool rather than dorky. Not that that's a bad thing, it's just different.
*sigh* No one's really interested in the classic adventures anymore. Let me just go around the corner and shed a tear....

Haha aww, I feel your pain though! I miss the adventures of old, everything ranging from silliness like DotT and Sam & Max to serious adventures like Beneath a Steel Sky and The Dig. Thankfully, there are still indie developers who focus on adventure but they never seem to quite grab me as the old ones did.
It does seem to be the trend that flash and dazzle is prized above depth and storytelling. Makes me sad. >.>

I can honestly say that I have spent more time playing stuff like Monkey Island, Space Quest, Broken Sword, Gabriel Knight, Alone in the Dark, you name it, than any modern game. First and foremost because you had to use your brains to solve puzzles (in a weird, twisted sort of way
), and second, you didn't have internet access to google solutions.Haha, I remember times when I used to spend hours trying to solve a certain puzzle and having fits of rage when I didn't succeed. Good times

Absolutely, I'd sometimes spend hours pulling my hair out at some of those puzzles. More often than not the answer would be so damned obvious too!
Oh Gabriel Knight! I remember playing The Beast Within, what a fantastic game that was. :3
@Jigsaw: What's that "ahem" for?
