Name the first Electronic Games you played...

[WhiteHat]

The good old days, my first Electronic Games was a PC Game: Karateka by Jordan Mechner, released at 1984. Following are few screen shots of it:

Early stage:


The hardest enemy was The Eagle:


This game even has some cut-scenes ! There’s the beautiful girl-friend being imprisoned by the evil king (classic):


Karateka kept me busy for hours and the most thrilling part was the stage where we had to fight the eagle (Boss’ Pet).
Twas an excellent game, that became the ‘embryo’ of the legendary Prince of Persia. Brief history of Jordan Mechner and his excellent games: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordan_Mechner.

Anyway, here’s how my first PC look: IBM PC/XT. (True, it looks like an ancient machine, yet it was good enough...)


The only things of this PC spec that i can remember are:
- Graphic Card: EGA resolution 640x480 with 16 colors
- Keyboard: 83 keys.
- Storage: Floppy Disk 5.25" (720KB)
- Speed: About 10MHz
- Processor: 8088 ... (what’s that mean anyway?)


Anyway, thanks to MHS and DOSBOX that i can still play this game today, and hack it !!..


Go ahead people, tell us of your first game here. Share the joy...

My first electronic game was Frogger for the Atari 2600, released in 1982.



I also remember playing these games as well (just to name a few), but not as much as Frogger.

Adventure:




Berzerk:


Defender:


E.T. - The Extra Terrestrial:


Kaboom:


Pac-Man:


Yar's Revenge:


They all looked soooo much better back then... It's hard to say which one is really my first, but I remember playing Frogger the most.

Two amongst my favorite games for ATARI 800XL were:

Bruce Lee:





LodeRunner:




Both are excellent games back then, and LodeRunner had also became my father’s favorite...

Em.. I have forgotten my first played electronic game`s name. It was built in GameBoy ( Yellow ) which look like




It is starting with a ball bounding on the ground, and you have to eat all the elements on the map. Then a " Exit " will appear on somewhere and you have to bound to the " Exit " to the next level.




And also, I have played the game which as Whitehat and Hitman in other devices. ( Most probably gameboy Advance or SP )
