My first was Diablo 2 i think .. i pumped a lot of hours into that sucker

Or maybe it was Mechwarrior 2? Both around the same time in the early 90's

Diablo 2 was mine too, I lived on that for like 3 years. 

Yeah, there's only so many Hell cow runs and PvP matches I could do before burning out .. but I played almost full time for 3 years also

For me it was the legendary weapons that had me coming back. When I finally got them all several times, it was making the characters specifically for them weapons.

Mortal Kombat on console...

On PC it was Unreal back in 97-98.

Yup, ME3 was my first mp game and first shooter of any kind. Was mainly RPG and puzzles, some action games before that.

[Ferocious Panda]

First MP game was Starcraft for me

ME3 is also my first MP experience and, until now, the only one. I play others games from times to times but don't use their multiplayer mode.

I cannot imagine you on Starcraft lol. I bet people mistook you for South Korean because you kicked their ass so hard 

Edit: OT, I've been mp'ing since I was like 4, first one I remember was SSF. First online MP that I cared about was CoD4 (not really super srs) and after that Demon's Souls and Dark Souls.

Technically it would have been Warcraft 2, which came out in 1995. If you want to count things that was really just two people taking turns at a game, then even earlier than that.

My first online multiplayer would have been Diablo, which was 1996.

Wow some of you guys are young pups. I started playing MP back before they even had graphics. They were called MUDs. The first graphical games that recall off the top of my head were World of Warcraft 2/3, Diablo and Command and Conquer. Back in a time where you spent more time fixing SoundBlaster issues than actually playing. I switched over to FPS with Unreal Tournament and Doom (it's also where I formed the opinion that most pvp'ers are douchebags).

There was no such thing as a PC master race back then. We were the one true gods. These PC players now are just a mere shadow of our former selves.

[Max Dmian]

First game to play with friends was Age of Empires. First game to play online Counter-Strike 1.6.
Later came UT2003 and then, for a long time, nothing.
Until ME3 MP.

Wasn't that Diablo 2 in 96'?

Warcraft 2 I still consider one of my all time favorite games, Warcraft was revolutonary .. then they improved it significantly in the sequel ...

I recall messing around with an off-brand dial-up modem's initialization string was a PITA.  And then there are those connection interruptions when someone would pick up the phone, an incoming call with call-waiting, line noise/static because there's a thunderstorm, etc. <_<

Have played COD2 mp for about 15 minutes before I Got yelled at over the mic? After that experience I thought that I was cured from online gaming (just too old for that crap), until I was tempted to play the ME3 MP part after completing the campaign. Haven't played anything else since. :-)

edit - have played some Star Wars Battlefront 1+2 on the PS2 online (years ago now if that counts) :-)

I play halo and cod every now and again usually at the request of a friend but everyime I do and you encounter these individuals I'm always reminded of Yahtzee's zero punctuation review of halo 3 where he describes halo fans as 'highly evolved meta****s' who do what they have evolved to do at full volume in your ear. He once said he didn't bother reviewing online sections of games because of his low tolerance for 'repetition and tosspots' which captures this sentiment perfectly. It's exactly why I don't play cod very often if I can help it. Mass Effect on the other hand has quite a different audience and I'm usually pleasantly surprised online. We're a pleasant bunch.

Agreed!  A huge reason to why I keep on playing the mp part of this game.

My first multiplayer computer gaming experience was probably the ZX Spectrum conversion of the arcade game Gauntlet. My first networked multiplayer game may have been Doom during my first year at university. My first Internet multiplayer gaming would have been playing some MUDs and MUSEs also in my first year at university. Much later I also played quite a lot of Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory on the PC, and various multiplayer shooters on the Xbox.

ME3 MP is however my first significant multiplayer gaming experience where I've played with random Internet people as opposed to just friends. Except for the MUDs and MUSEs I suppose, but they don't really count. PvP gaming with random Internet people never appealed to me but co-op gaming is fine.

Diablo 2 was around 2000 I believe. It was definately after I got Half-Life and Starcraft in 1998.

I still have my old Warcraft 2 disc and play it using Dosbox from time to time.

ooo .. just remembered!

My first multiplayer game was 'Mule' on the Commodore 64

That would be coming up on 30 years ago ..

Very nice - did not think anyone here would remember M.U.L.E., which was also my first MP game and also on the C64. We played tons of 4-man Tournament games back then. High Crystite Plots all day, every day :-).

A decade later we played the arcade game "Trog" a lot, also with teams of four. Then it was Doom on LAN in the mid/late late 90s, NHL Hockey and later the occasional Quake 3 match. Did not play much online until about 2005, then started with Trackmania, which was great for several years. Not much else online until ME3MP, but it sure seems 4-player co-op is something I like quite a bit.

My first MP game was Borderlands 2. That game was fun, but it was way too easy (easy as bronze). After modding the hell out of that game, eventually I got bored, I gave myself all the top tier equipment, everything modded to perfection. After you reach a certain stage, there is zero challenge in that game.

Mass Effect is better because, at its toughest, I still find it very challenging. I'm not talking about Gold, that's boring and easy. I can't mod the game to make myself invincible like I did on Borderlands 2.
