    This may have been discussed here before, but post your experiences. Its always nice to go back in time and remember how much games have changed.

    My first gaming experience was in elementary school with the original oregon trail, but i dont really count that since we were made to play it.

    My most memorable first games were probaly Wolfenstein, and doom. I remember the old days on dialup downloading alot of demos from happypuppy.com. Having to start games in Dos. I also remember when i bought a packard bell i got the first Myst game which to me sucked, but good graphics for its time.

    The first game I ever played on PC was Unreal Tournament 99.
    I got addicted to it. It was fun though.

    Old school Oregon Trail was awesome. I remember my 3rd grade teacher would sit us in front of a computer and have us playing that several times a week. I'm still not sure why they thought it was educational.
