Let's have some fun!
First computer game you remember playing.
Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards. I'm not 100% it was the first, but we were hardcore on buying everything that Sierra put out and I remember guiding Larry through the disco so clearly.

I also had Pong, but console hooked up to the TV with the wabbit ears.
The glory of opening up a box with those 3.5" floppies, tho.
Edit - OMG. No. 5.25". Paper sleeves.
Do not ask me if I have my original boxes, manuals and disks.
Cosmic Jr. is going to have to deal with my ancient 0s and 1s.
Which reminds me, I need to leave him a note about the fabric maps that came in the Ultima boxes.
Which means that Leisure Suit Larry was NOT my first game. 😱
It still amazes me that I remember when the VCR was fresh and new, the TRS-80 was a huge deal, and Pong was THE cool thing.
Cosmic Jr. just downloads on Steam and goes.
Will never have to combine files from multiple newsgroup posts to see a graphic.
@Cosmichomicide I'm no gatekeeper, just old.
