ITT: First game you ever got addicted to.
Diablo 2. Killed a decade of my childhood easy.
these right here. Soooo good
>>696298537
is genma onimusha good/
>>696298724
it's just a port of the first one for xbox. only difference is slightly better graphics and any mention of the word "demon" is now "genma".
final fantasy 3
>>696298963
>and any mention of the word "demon" is now "genma".
why?
Tony hawks pro skater. Literally played it til my optical drive broke on my playstation
>>696299232
'murica. That's why it was officially changed to genma in the 3rd game. also why so far, Genma Onimusha is the only one on any xbox console.
My friend and I pooled our Christmas gifts to get this bad boy. Not exactly rich, I got a playstation and he got Crash Bash. We built an underground fort in the woods (only ~150 feet in) and connected a minifridge, tv, and the playstation with a string of outdoor christmas light extension cords his grandpa didn't need which we buried underground. Of course we brought the tv and playstation inside every day but damn that shit was fun
The way i learned English
Dark souls was very addicting
>>696299419
>'murica.
this makes no sense man since plenty of games use demons. demon's souls doesn't call it's demons genma. they call them demons and nobody threw a bitch fit.
>>696299458
This game got wicked hard later levels. I loved staying up late and just trying to beat it with my friends.
>inb4 beat it
>>696298118
Enjoying your first year of having to pay taxes, kiddo?
>D1. Would have killed a decade of my childhood but Diablo 2 came out.
>>696299716
it was a microsoft decision at first, but by the 3rd one, even sony saw the appeal of changing it. It's the same reason a lot of studios strive for a hard pg13. If we can take it down from an R, our money intakeis strengthened with a wider audience.
Burned through 2 Xboxes from playing this so much.
>>696298597
amazing game, was just playing it the other day, it's still tons of fun.
>>696300059
forgot pic
>>696298118
this
pretty much any blizz game
Diablo, Starcraft, Warcraft 3, wow vanilla
>>696300040
alright man it just seems weird since plenty of games use the word demon with no issue. Doom being one of the most popular FPS games had no issue using the word.
Runescape man
Cheesesteak Jimmy's
>>696300297
idk much more than that. it is quite confusing, I guess because it was the early 2000's and times have changed drastically.
Anyone else?
>>696300669
Hell yeah. Got stuck at that rat fuck. Think he was the 4th boss
Showing my age now...The "music" used to drive my mum crazy.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZYuGUCrkoU
Video of the game loading and then played, for those that never had the pleasure.
>>696300365
Still addicted
I spent hours playing this gem
>>696300709
FUCKING SCORCH! Yes! God damnit i used to play that all day.
>>696299458
Video games were hard as a kid. This shit was no exception. I couldn't beat the tank levels had to let my older brother do those
>>696300709
first PC game I ever played.
image related.
Still playing this one
First game I ever rented multiple times from Blockbuster.
Not my record holder for most rentals, though. That would be Kirby Super Star.
I almost dropped out of high school, and then did drop out of college because of this game. It pretty much ruined my life.
This thing, was too young to understand what was going on. Called Nintendo hotline and got notes. Mom was pissed, but I did beat it.
>>696301606
i can imagine it must have been really hard to summon the willpower to rip yourself away from such amazing gameplay
>>696301606
no, you ruined your life
Nostale. Shame on me. I was one of the best students in class and started to skip days at school to play it all day. This game is shit, don't ever play it.
>>696297959
>>696301766
Actually, the death of my mother and the abuse by my stepmother ruined my life. Runescape was an escape from reality. But with therapy, I can function again.
One of the best RPGs ever created...
Quest for Glory: So You Want to Be a Hero
Still has a place in my heart
>>696301977
Tell us more about this abuse. Did she ever touch your pecker?
>>696300900
There are two rats, I believe.
Ripper Roo as the first, and Pinstripe as the fourth.
>>696302302
Nope, it was all verbal and emotional, and she hit me once. No mother/son incest/rape for you.
>>696302551
Sounds like you didnt have very thick skin... Is she still alive? Do you still see her?
>>696298597
I don't recognize that game, even as a fan of RTS?
I'm going to feel ashamed if it's from the C&C series, but just a heads up, I never took the time to play the first two games.
>>696300669
> Used to Play CTR for hours and hours
> 101% campaign, silver star in all the time trials and gold satr in about half of them
> Nobody to play the multiplayer with since I lived with countryside and my sister became bored playing against me.
> Later we get Xbox and donate our old playstation to our cousins.
> They always loved games we had on it. We'd play for hours when they came to visit.
> Fast forward ~10 years
> We book a large cabin to celebrate my mothers and her twin sisters birthday.
> The old PS is still working and cousins bring it with them
> MRW all my old games still working as we plug in the SCART to old ass TV
> We decide to hold CTR tournamet
> "Fuck you guys, I haven't played in years, but I was pretty good you know."
> Oh, they remember.
> My first race
> Spend first lap bumping to every corner.
> At the end of the lap muscle memory from 10 years ago take over.
> Suddenly speedboosting thorugh every corner perfectly.
> Single manly tear rolls on my cheek as I feel like a 12-year old again.
> End up winning the tournamet in though finale against one of the cousins.
>>696302197
This. I bust this out every few years still. 'Enry the 'ermit music is my jam
>>696302935
yeah it's C&C dude
looks like Red Alert
Oldfag
>>696303106
Yeah, this series (the earlier ones, the better) had a permanent impact on my life. And playing it before there were guides and internet walkthroughs was so much more time consuming, but also rewarding.
>>696300287
My wololo nigger.
>>696301325
The game I rented the most was Rival Schools
i hate to say it, but i never put so many hours of my day into gaming till i started playing this. now i am not a fan, but many a year went away when i found this at a young age.
>>696302935
C&C Red Alert 2. Pretty damn good one too
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfwLBk1zvrw
BARF!
>>696303812
Nice!
>>696297959
Ah, mine as well. great fucking game. many memories were had.
>>696299458
mine was mario krat. we didnt have the tv trays thoo
>>696299458
Tell me more about this underground fort. I'm having a hard time believing this...
This shit was dope
A tie between THIS and Dungeon Master for the Atari.
HEAVY MACHINE GUN!!!
>>696299936
What a giant faggot you are.
>>696305433
Oh hell yeah! Did you have favourite faction and hero? Dungeon and Darkstorn for me.
>>696303728
I'll make sure to pick that one up.
>>696299188
Got that for pc at costco in like 2003 it changed my life
>>696299188
This guy gets it
>>696305803
Rawket Lawnchah!
I remember wasting hours upon hours with my cousins and siblings playing that game.
And you just got the song for the first level of the third game stuck in my head. Dammit.
phantom dust
>>696302197
That was one of the only games I remember my dad playing - that and Gauntlet. He took the time to draw a map of all the areas and everything.
Picture related, though, was MY jam. I have an old home movie of me getting to, like, level 75 or some shit. At five or six.
>>696306127
What a shame the PS4 release that just came out is based on the PS2 version, which has loading problems. Good thing I waited, time to go hunting for the non-anthology ones.
>>696298167
Good guy but there are so few tracks!
>>696298337
Faggot for not playing/being addicted to halo 2
>>696298537
Another good guy
>>696298603
Good guy
>>696299458
This game really wasn't that fun even if you were playing with someone else. The games were brain dead.
>>696300098
Hey you're one good nigga! I had two X boxes and two tv's for this game(along with two copies of halo 2). Tried modding one xbox but that failed luckily a friend gifted a third Xbox to me so I still had two.
>>696300669
Yes. Good guy
>>696300967
Oh what a guy!
I had games before nwn, but this one was the first I spent years on. Next was ut2k4.
>>696306281
Mad props
Me and my mom still play it together sometimes
>>696305883
When i was young i liked Shakti in Dungeon and anything in Stronghold. Loved those turn 3 behemothes <3
>>696298167
FUCK YEAH BROTHA
Played multiplayer again about a year or two ago, surprised people are still playing it.
>>696305972
That's a terrible game anon. Y u do dis?
>>696306873
Why are you lying?
>>696303698
At a young age? Nigga it's been out for 12 years. Just turn 18?
>>696297959
This game.
Pretty sure I hold the record for most times getting 99 in Thieving. I've gotten 99 Thieving a total of 6 times.
Fletching 4 times and Herblore 4 times.
>>696306972
I'm not. Well, it's either this or Super Mario Land
>>696297959
played this shit all weekend when i went to visit my cousins
This
>>696307771
And this
>>696299936
Kill yourself.
>>696307054
You probably don't consider 14-18 young since it's in your age range lel.
First game i ever owned as a kid. Loved the shit out of it and ended up buying a shit ton of the little figures too. Ill never forget the kid i met at school who traded me up to a gengar. Rip in peace chris.
>>696308705
Wait fuck i meant
Started doing bad in school I played so much
>>696308705
>Rip in peace Chris.
Wat.
The damn ol Oregon trail got me, and Pokemon blue. When I was young
>>696309273
He was the kid that traded me. His mom got drunk and held him under water in a sink till he drowned in middle school. Kid was a fuckin G though. I miss him.
This or TimeSplitters 2 multiplayer
got addicted in grade 8, and played all summer long til grade 9. Skipped school to play and got kicked out of grade 9 so I had to a shitty school program thing where there were lots of pregnant teens and native kids. Got my shit together after that.
>>696306062
My most replayed game. Still love it! I plan to play the whole series at least once a year.
>>696299936
Yeah I'm with the others. You're a cunt. Fuck off
Anyone with me on this? Definitely not the first game I played, and definitely not the last one I got addicted to.
First game i played that had multiplayer.
Was 13 at the time and it was totally awesome!
Joined a clan and played some Pcv's
Counterstrike
Classic Doom games. Brutal Doom made it so much better. The new one is ok, but the classics will forever remain in my heart.
>>696298337
wow, what a fag. how long could you possibly play this game for? it was so gay
>>696307678
shit i meant this game
>>696299458
That sounds cool as fuck m8, damn, i wasted my fucking childhood playin with plasticine and vidya
>>696297959
Warcraft was my favorite real time strategy game... Blizzard stopped making those great games to spend time on that lame 3D online game.
I play this one since 2005. Brilliant game!
>>696314735
I wish for a Warcraft 4, something that breaks away from the Cataclysm to WoD timeline. Actually, i'm ok with anything.
>>696299936
gfys
Replayed this a lot. Dr. Cossack's music is the best!
7 years of my life, well spent.
the graphics blew my mind. It looked so realistic
>>696302935
>>696303295
>>696303728
Lmao that's far from red alert. It doesn't even look like something before tiberian sun. Power plants are definitely not red alert or original cnc or ts. It looks like some knock off of cnc
I played this game so much online it was crazy. Like every day for a few years.
The Curse of Monkey Island.
Lego Island.
Age of Empires II.
>>696315396
my nigga
>>696315402
It is, however, Red Alert 2. You don't know shit..
>>696300385
Fuck yeah dude, my dad and I would play this over LAN every night till like 3AM
>>696309944
This game was amazing if u could find a lobby without 8 people scripting the butterfly bullshit. I loved the duel mode.
>>696306281
my NES plays this without the cartridge, shit is burnt in... still play it.
but Ashron's Call was my first addiction.
>>696297959
The Harvest Moon series in general.
>>696297959
Still play it from time to time
>>696316082
I'll never have that feeling again like those early days meeting people on message boards and running around Dereth with them.
That game did exploration like no other MMO.
Played this all the time.
>>696316437
Lords of the Realm was so great back in the day. Good pick.
>>696316449
I wish I could get my copy to work. Can't get either HoMM2 or HoMM3 running.
First game I ever played online.
>>696316882
WHHHAHAAAAAT?
GOG bro
https://www.gog.com/game/heroes_of_might_and_magic_3_complete_edition
>>696309223
I will still consider this my first real video game addiction. Wc3.. so many hours into that game. It was fcking amazing when it was super popular. Ladder and custom games...
I still remember being on a family road trip I think I was 14 and my dad had a lap top with us and wc3 was installed on it. I would literally just stay behind in the hotel and play wc3 online while they went sight seeing and shit. Lol I loved playing Dark Dees
>>696317000
I know, but it's irritating paying for a game where I still own physical copies.
>>696317085
It's like, $13... If you're getting 20 years value out of it you're not being ripped off :P
>>696317257
Dude, torrent it... its a few hundred MBs, takes literally minutes
>>696305433
HEROESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSsssssss
yes
>>696303417
This too, but Civilization was the largest time-sink for me. Days and weeks and months of civ.
>>696317393
Or just buy it - you're paying for the compatibility patches not for the game this time around.
You're not advocating... ... ... Piracy are you?!
>>696316882
>Buy GOG version
>Install HOMM3 HD
>Enjoy
I started a new game yesterday :3
>>696317914
paying for an outdated, almost 20 year old game??? Yes I fucking do.
Now supply me with hats and cocks.
This game was my life, would play it for hours upon end.
>>696297959
Warcraft my man, my friend had that but I thought it was a game for grown ups seeing how he was older and the cover looked scary/cool as fuck! fyi: he let me play doom on his computer instead..
>>696301273
Second pc game I've gotten addicted to next to diablo 2. Loved c1-c6.

So much this! Spent atleast 10 years playing Diablo 2
Space Invaders on my fathers old Atari console.
Later on PC Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 with keyboard controls.
I was 11 years old and this was the best game I ever played. Maxed out my yen in both my pack and PC storage, and had an assload of level 100s. Most of them weren't even duped.
lords of magic, mechwarrior 2, nox, diddy kong racing, banjo kazooie, turok 2: seeds of evil are a few games :)
>>696307827

>I don't recognize that game, even as a fan of RTS?
wow that's because you are not a RTS fan. every fan can recognize a C&C game

I spent so much time playing fire emblem when I was younger, that game stole heaps of my childhood. I picked up fates for 3ds a couple of days ago after not playing any fire emblem for years I like that they kept the game pretty much the same as the origonal.
>>696297959
The VERY first game that I was hooked on was Combat for Atari. Fucking loved playing this game... it had a bunch of combat games you could choose from by my favorite was the tank combat.. 1 vs 1... LOVED that.
Was my childhood
To the point I've broken the original disk I haf
>>696300934
Damn. That sort of drippy 8 bit sound during gameplay is pretty nice.
>>696303698
Are stories are very similar. Do you still play? Just out of curiosity

Obscure mod with a small player base.

Anyone else played this gem?

First game to ever get me to play constantly, going back to it now, and finally doing Shivering isles is so much damn fun.
Also: Testarinos to see if I'm still banarinoed for no reasonino.
>>696326581
Just played this recent ladder reset, still use jsp aswell
>>696326370
I did. I remember a sploit it had.
Muslim civilization could create magic objects for gold. You can upgrade your troops to semi-gods only vulnerable to magic.
>>696326739
that game is the shit, it's almost timeless. It's the first game that I got addicted to, it was just so vast and massive. You could do anything. Skyrim is good but Oblivion is a lot better. plus the expansions were dank

This bad boy.
This.
I spent ages 12-15 playing this game everyday as soon as I came home from school and on weekends. This is how I found /b/ actually.
Pong. The standalone version. Oldfag like woah.

Ma nigga!!!
>>696303011
Same, and I was extremely good at it myself. It was a lot of fun to me as a kid.
>>696328154
Right. Cause an anonymous post in a random thread will mean anything the next time I post? I grew up on Atari, Intellivision, and C64. Truly, truly addicted? Probably the first Simcity on PC though, tbh.
But as a small child played the hell out of pong I semi-recall and have been told.

Dudebro teacher gave this to me way back, still play it today. I fucking love this game.

Goddamn. All those years ago.

Not the first game I got addicted to but definitely the one I was the most addicted to. At least for the first 3 years of playing, after that it was just to be the best, wasn't as fun anymore.

Whenever I used to play video games, I would play them as efficiently as possible (I never really played them to enjoy them, but instead to see if I could beat them), and once I beat them I stopped playing. Now, I no longer play any video games. I also did a ton of other activities as well when younger, throughout my teenage years, and even now.
