Comment on What was the first game you ever bought ?

I don’t remember.

However, I gave up gaming when I was around 18 and preparing to head off to college. Then after I graduated, I was at a store and saw Quake Arena on deep discount (b/c it was a very old game at that time) and based on the hardware requirements, it looked like my crumby ancient tower computer could play it. I don’t know why, but I decided to buy it, and I guess that sort of got me back into gaming (ish).

I was in my 20s and although I barely remember the game now, yeah, it was worth it. The graphics and performance were far superior to anything I’d played up to that point. It had online play, which was entirely new to me at the time. And a few years later, I got major “friend points” when I gifted it to someone who was a game collector and had offered many times to buy the game from me.
