Rodzaju: When I finally got onto an Amstrad, I got hooked on "Oh Mummy"!
I didn't know this one. It looks kind of cool, and the music reminds me of Rick Dangerous.

Mindblighter: Hmm, I believe my first gaming memory is from the Christmas I got a C64 and playing Weird Dreams on it. That was one hell of a game for a first game ever since I had very little idea what the hell I was supposed to do in it. And after watching the longplay for it a while ago, I'm hardly surprised: the game lives up to its name. Should I get so lucky, my game of choice would be...Fallout 1.
OMG I remember that game... dude that was some messed up sh!t

I haven't played that game for 15 years oer more, but I still hum that bloody tune ;-}

Fallout Tactics.

Since you said "gaming" and not "video gaming" ... my first gaming memory was real-life role playing as kids are known to do. My two sisters and I would play out various scenes from the movies Willow and Red Sonja. Imagination FTW!

[Edit: if you'd like a video game memory, the first one I remember playing was Oregon Trail on the Apple computers in grade school, putting names of teachers in as your party members and then killing them off with various diseases and disasters.]

Fallout 2

I remember my first game on PC was Uefa Champions League 98 or something, my dad bought it to me. It was very fun, i didn't even realize how bad players animation in comparison to fifa it was, but I was playing it for hours a day... good memories. My next game was Age of empries 1. It was so great, I begged my father for expansion Rise of rome. I received it on my birthday. Wonderful memories.

Fallout Tactics

My first gaming memory was either the first Warcraft, Command and Conquer or Wolfenstein 3D. I was about 4 years old.

Fallout 1

One of my first gaming memories was of a console [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegasus_(console)]Pegasus[/url] It being a nes rip off allowed me to play games such as Contra, motorcycle racing (side view, lots of jumping. some of you know it as it was featured in guess the game thread) and a certain tennis game which i know i played in 92. i quite enjoyed it. so did the racing one. hated contra tough as i sucked at it incredibly. still do.

I would like: Fallout 2

First gaming memory:Tetris (of course) on the original Game Boy

I'll go with Fallout 1.

My first game is this one called Talking Parrot. I haven't been able to find any traces of the game thus far, but I distinctly remember it. Maybe it's because I've never been able to find anything like it since. Anyhow I think I played it when I was 3. You would talk into the microphone, and the parrot's mouth would move in sync with what you said - not very accurately, mind, since it is a bitmap image, but it was really cool. I would sing, laugh and just say random things, and amuse myself with the parrot mimicking my speech.

Fallout 2 please.

My first memory was of playing the original Wolfenstein on my dad's Apple II +

Being able to kill Nazis with pistols and hand grenades while making my escape from their clutches...the action hooked me and drove my imagination wild. I was proud of the ranks I gained... :-)
It never crossed my mind that it was low-tech.

Thanks Cassidy

Fallout 1.

Manic Miner on the zx Spectrum - the Grandaddy of all platformers. The joy of beating that game has never been repeated in 30 odd years of gaming for me.

Tactics for me.
My first gaming memory was playing PONG on... I THINK it was a first model of Atari 2600, all I remember is using the "control pads" that were just a big dial to control the onscreen paddles, and being so young I had no coordination and kept losing :)

How long ago was that? It sounds like one of the demo programs that came with an original SoundBlaster card.

Fallout 2

My first gaming memory is probably the original Math Blaster (In Search of Spot), nearly a decade and a half ago. Still have a certificate of completion taped to the wall.

Thank you

My very first gaming memory? It was probably either playing Frogger, or Digger, or some obscure CGA-mode DOS games that sadly I do not remember the titles (nor the games themselves). So, let's just settle with either Frogger or Digger, though it was probably Digger first then Frogger.

Any Fallout is fine with me since I have not played any of them yet.

Fallout Tactics.

Let's see, one of my first PC gaming memories was over at my Cousin's house. I watched him play Karateka on the old Apple IIGS. It was magical...
