24, and I honestly don't know at what age I started, I guess I was 5 or 6

and those were games like pong and squash and stuff like that on some green and black TV console (well, the screen was black with green, not the console itself) which didn't even have cardridges yet.

But the real fun started when I was 8 and I started playing games like Willy the Worm and Lode runner on my mums Hyundai (don't know what processor).. and some time earlier on my nephews or classmates C64 (Paratrooper, Midnight Pinball, Lazy Larry, Ghost Busters etc)

20. First system was this machine that used black, Gameboy-like cassettes. First game was a question & answer thing my nephew programmed on it. "What weather is it outside?" "It is raining glittery suits from Eddy Wally." It ended by showing a triangle
:w00t:
Sounds like a great game!!!

21. I first had a nintendo, was 6 or 7. Still have it somewhere, too bad it doesn't work anymore. First game was... Well what game do you think comes inserted in an old nintendo? Super Mario. Also had duck hunts, motorbike racings, there were like 44 games in that thing *good memories*

Though the first game I played was in my cousin's spectrum, some addictive basketball game that I don't know the name of.

Right!

So I'm the oldest...

All of you go to your room!

:whistle:
Not anymore. :whistle: LOL

I am 32, will be 33 in couple of months.

First game I played was Space Invasion - Arcade.

After that I got hooked up to games, so I played mostly arcades, as I was not able to get computer at the time. (Phoenix, Scramble, Pole Position etc.)

First computer game I played was chess game on first home computer I saw: ZX Spectrum. Not really soon after that I was able to get C64 and then Amiga, which IMHO is best game computer ever made. (To bad I don't own any of them any more)

Ohhh, I used to rent Atari 2700 too.
