Atic Atac for me. TIL it was made by the guys who founded Rare. After school always playing that game. I am still gaming, but back in the day it was a whole different experience to me.
It was a Sinclair ZX81, which I built from a kit with my brother. I was astonished when it actually worked.
It came with a tape which included about 6 games in BASIC - all extremely simple since they had to fit in 1k of memory, of course. I can’t actually recall what they were exactly though.
Same here. A friend of mine had it and we used to play that constantly as well as Pitfall and Joust. The first game I had at home was Asteroids on the Atari 520st.
I think it was either Mario Party on the GameCube or Crash Bandicoot on the PS2. The first one I remember well would have to be Pokémon Firered in the GBA SP.
Still vividly remember the day I saw and plated Space Invaders (1979) for the first time. I was walking home from primary school and there was a new machine, that Was Not Pinball!, in the arcade (called pinball parlours then).
I watched for about 30 minutes while I waited my turn, played 2 games and was hooked and still am 45 years later.
I forgot the name, was on a 8086 machine. You controlled a little diamond shaped character and have to squish enemies shaped like the letter H (on higher levels with double outlines) between moveable and immovable blocks. Later they also lay eggs that would hatch faster and faster.
