  • What was your 1st PC Game?

    I read a thread on a different forum and it got me thinking of mine,

    list your 1st PC game you bought or played on PC.

    mine was Duke Nukem (it may or may not be right but it hurts to think further back :|: ) on a 5.5" inch floppy disk for my Compaq 386

    Mine was "bad command or filename".

    J/K, F29-Retaliator.

    Probably the most first real DOS flight sim. I know there was another one by DoD or DaD or whatever the **** it's called, and I played that too. And of course, Duke Nukum.



    Look at the detail! Still far better than BF2 on low settings, and you never had to worry about aliasing either.

          Camperestruck you are my hero! That is one of my first games and being so young I never knew what it was called! Thank you so much!

          EDIT: The screenshots look familar did you have to enter some kind of code from the manual to boot the game every time? Or am I imagining it?

          I think Police Quest - In Pursuit of the Death Angel was my first, I remember driving those pixelated blocks around the streets all day long

            yep, was annoying sometimes a few of the older games were the same, ie Zool had a circular code book thingy, and Settlers asked you for a specific word on page ## line ##

                            Yeah, I remember playing it in black and white. That was the only picture I could dig up, though .

                              Pff, LEGO Racers is so much better. Same with LEGO Rock Raiders.
