That was my first computer! Remember how some games were too big for the standard cartridge, and you had to load them from a standard audio cassette? By the gods, that sound was horrible!

I'm in for Enclave. Thank you very much!!

Yes, I only had a standard run-of-the-mill tape player hooked up to it though. Did you have an original player (don't know if there was a TI one for this)? For games, I recall Tombstone City.

I'm in for Enclave.

My first gaming system was the NES which I got for Christmas.

It was so long ago, I don't recall if there was an actual TI cassette player. But I do remember having both of those games, and others (such as Miner 2049er).

I'm in for Septerra Core.

My first computer had DOS on it and it was also a piece of garbage with no sound, no mouse.
My first gaming system = NES. But before that, I played a lot of games on my father's computers with black and white graphics.

I must've had other games too, still I only owned a couple in total. Sold the machine to get a C64 eventually. But the TI served me well, learning BASIC and Parsec was a good title (and cost a lot of money, as all carts did back then).

Ha in this times you really knew your bits per name eh?
My teacher always said: in this times you thought about trice for bugs until you really give the staple to read it into the mainframe. Not like today just hacking and if its wrong compiler will complain.. but he complains only for syntax problems logical problem between seat and monitor will reside ;-)

I am in for Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator.

Thank you for the giveaway!

As we say here: you have some real balls for your first post.

I'm in (Septerra Core) -- first home system I played with was an Apple II se when our class visited a college. First one I owned was my father's 286/25 when he bought one to work at home.

A little late for the welcome wagaon but just wanted to say thanks a lot for the nice giveaway ddickinson and welcome to the forum. Congrats to the winners reasure and djdarko. Also +rep for a cool topic of discussion as well, the first computer that my Dad brought home for us was a 486 which we later traded up for a Pentium 133 MHz. No, I am not that old I was in the first grade when we got our first computer so I was in on the PC craze from the very beginning. :)

Wanted to say a big thank you to Ddickinson (and to djdarko for having it bought in the meantime :p).
Just noticing that Ddickinson is a GOG girl, so she is getting a extra big hug from me.
If only you could find a girlfriend like that, liking GOG and games.

How kids react to our old computers.
