My first PC game which i start my gaming adventure :)

Stronghold

It's hard to point to one game as the first, but Civilization and Eye of the Beholder are high in the running. Definitely something in '91 or '92. I know I had already played several games by the time Star Control II, Alone in the Dark, Dune II, and Wolfenstein 3D came along. Little did I know that all of these games would go on to become classics. Man, it was a great time to be a PC gamer.

Of course, the real first computer (and not console) game I played was Oregon Trail on an Apple II at school in the late 80s. Soon followed by Number Munchers.

Stronghold or Age of Empires :)

afew that i remember since i cant really pin it down on one. Stunts, Halloween Harry, Skyroads, Raptor. these were all such great games

Well my transition to pc gaming was marked by the release of borderlands in 2009.
Pretty recent in retrospect. xD

I can't remember, but I think Croc was one of the first one I played too!

Alley Cat, Tetris, Pentix. I was 3 years old at most.

I can't recall which game was exactly the first one, but remember Another World, Test Drive 3, Lotus 3 and a Scorch-like game called Castle or Castles. A little bit later there were also Worms 1, Duke Nukem 3D, Warcraft II and finally on my first own computer Colgate, Doom 2, Heretic, Supaplex and Pinball Mania. I still have some of them and play using DOSBox.

And the first video game I've ever played was River Raid on C64.

HoMM IV
followed by 2 year nonstop gaming of Ragnarok Online

and that was in 2006/2007...i'm a minimalist

used to consoles only until i discovered those 2 games...ok...i admit i just didn't had any other game than HoMM 3 & 4 when i got my first PC :D

Oh my god, I love Croc! I believe I have a copy of that for the Playstation.

As for your question, the very first PC game that I remember playing is Doom. I still have the shareware disks that I used for it, as a matter of fact! Though I doubt the files on it are still good. ^^; But it's a special part of my collection regardless.

As for first games for consoles, it'd have to be something from my mom's Atari 2600. It was either Frogger or MegaMania, I think. And my first arcade game was Ms. Pac-Man. It was one that my grandma owned at her store. I loved going there after school, getting snacks, and playing that thing for hours. SO NICE
And my first handheld games were Tetris and Super Mario Land, and I got Pokemon Blue a few years after I first got my Gameboy. I thankfully still have my Pokemon game with its original box, instructions, and with the special promo Mew that I got from an event! :)

While I still maintain I have no real clue, I always answer with Nebulus when this question comes up.

Actually, my answer is more like "that game where you play the q-bert looking dude, but you're hopping around a tower trying to reach the door to get to the next level. Nubulbulo? Neebulis? Man, it was 24 years ago, how the hell am I supposed to remember."

One of those: Tyrian, Commander Keen series, Doom, Heretic... can't remember because I was like 2 or 3.

The first PC game I played was the now legendary Alley Cat

first pc game... Resident Evil 1997

I don't really remember my first PC game but it could have been Asterix and Obelix.

First PC games... hmm. Can't say for sure really, but quite possibly one of the Commander Keen games. At least I know I played some of those before we had a PC of our own. First CD games were Beneath a Steel Sky and Syndicate some years later.

First PC game? Well first PC game EVER PLAYED was either Oregon Trail or Qix on Commodore 64. If C64 doesn't count then Wolfenstein 3D and Doom, played them both the day my friend got Doom on his comp. First game played after I OWNED my own computer? Diablo 1.

I played some crappy game on an apple computer in the 80's. Don't remember the name. First pc game that I remember is Myst. First game ever is E.T. on the atari.

If I remember right, the first I bought and own was Theme Hospital but I prob played others way before

Rollercoaster Tycoon

Mine was Half-Life 1. Got hooked onto shooters shortly after. :)

First PC game? Duke Nukem 3D! Man i was a really happy 11 months old baby

My first game was World of Warcraft (and I didnt know what kind of game it was) ^^ It was the greatest coop game I knew! Before that i only knew the games where you can play versus, but never together.

First PC Game would have to be Star Wars: Rouge Squadron.

Wish it would work on Windows 7, but apparently it crashes upon start up. Sad :[

Pac-Man on some dirt old PC with DOS (possibly not even MS-DOS) and a 2 colour monitor (it did black and orange, nothing else).
