Hi there,
Today I want to talk about my video game consoles, which I have/had quite a few. Lets start with my first one, the Sega Master System. Back then, I was just a little child and didn't even attend school. We only had a couple of games, namely Sonic 2, Lemmings, some tennis game and of course Alex the kid. Looking back in time, I am actually relieved with the choice of games that we bought back then. They were really good, but I think I was to young to understand them.
Going on, I was introduced to the PC. But not just any PC, it was a Pentium 1 CPU with 133 Mhz! ON Top of that, we had an amazing RAM of 32 MB and a 2 MB graphics card (I think it was a Hercules Graphics Terminator, but I am not sure). It was amazing, especially due to the RTS games like Warcraft 2, Dune 2000 and Starcraft. Then there were games like Diablo, K.K.N.D Krossfire and others. It was amazing, and I think this was the part of my childhood that lived on until now, given that the computer is still a central part of my life.
Okay, here I take a break and start writing out the next part of this series. Please let me know the games and consoles you grew up with and the best/worst memories you have.
heh that's cool I thought I was the only kid with a master system
ReplyDeletemy first console was a SNES, then a N64, then I got my first PC, next was a PS1, then my 360.

ReplyDeletemaster system is oldschool indeed. I loved my NES when I first got it for my birthday....Duck Hunt was pure win.
ReplyDeleteAll I remember about my first 2 consoles was one was an Intellevision, and the other was an Atari....damn I'm old.
ReplyDeleteThe first *real* gaming console I had was when Nintendo game out with the NES with Robbie the robot in the states. I still have Robbie :)
I didn't start gaming until like last year when i got a ps3
ReplyDeleteI had both a master system and a NES. I am an only child. hahaha. But my favorite system, that got me really into games and everything was the Sega Dreamcast. RIP!
ReplyDeleteOf course, the Super Nintendo was an incredible system as well.
I can't remember the name of my first console, all I remember is playing hours of Mario.
ReplyDeleteWhat really changed my world was when I discovered computers and subsequently CS. That was my first real game and love :P
