I’ve played exactly one Epic Games game (Shadow Complex Remastered). I’m not sure that one would be the one to convert me…

Nope. And I only played Shadow Complex Remastered because Epic were giving it away free to try and make their Epic Launcher popular.
I am decidedly un-Epic.

I played 3d pinball, and sonic blast when I was younger, but the first game I really played was ECO: Battle With Detritus.
Never met another person who’s even heard of it and my disk won’t work because it only works on windows xp and below

The first game that I really spent a lot of time playing was the first Super Mario Bros game that was with Duck Hunt. Looking through the replies here, seems that a lot of people had similar games starting up. I remember spending so much time on SMB and getting stuck on World 4, then 7, then 8. The water levels from the first SMB game is probably why I still don’t like water levels in more modern games. I remember trying to point that orange and gray gun at anywhere but the screen for Duck Hunt and trying to figure out if we could trigger it without aiming at the screen. I think I was 5 years old.
We used to sneak around our neighborhood and somehow came across an adult who was playing, and we were watching in fascination and were totally floored in World 1-2 of SMB where you can use a run and duck to go under the bricks where we would always have to jump and break those. We looked at each other and realized that there were so much more to the game that met the eye. First time we beat the game was probably 2 years later after countless hours of trying and dying. I think to this day I probably spent more time playing that game than any other.

The Curse of Monkey Island and Heart of Darkness, with my father, when I was very little.
I also recall playing Zork with him and Flight Simulator as well!
The weird part? I was born in the late '90s. The thing is, my father was a programmer back in the day and to this day I own several floppy disks of games he used to pass his time with – even Prince of Persia 3D and Doom!
I also have a few CD-ROMs with games like Blue’s Clues and other things that I was given to aid with my English – although it’s my father’s main language, it’s neither mine nor my mother’s.

I also had the Amstrad CPC 464 computer but I had the colour screen, which may make me a rather Lord Snooty type of git (if it wasn’t second hand).
My favourite games on that (or the ones that I really remember) were Football Manager, Sport of Kings, Saboteur and Lotus Turbo Esprit. I also had a game called The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when you walked past the Butler, he’d steal your clothes.
Honourable mention for Fruit Machine.

I’m not really sure but my first was, but I often remember playing Halley Wars as a little kid. http://img2.game-oldies.com/sites/default/files/packshots/sega-game-gear/halley-wars-usa-europe.png
It’s an old Shmup, but I really loved it, and was so proud for managing to actually beat it one time.
Another was Mickey’s Castle of Illusion (gamegear version). It was much harder than the console version, with some added puzzling. I remember being stuck on several levels and losing completely quite often. I don’t remember if I ever actually beat it.

I played my first games on my parents’ old DOS PC, which ran a Windows-OS pre-95. (sorry if my terms are wrong there, I’m not an expert)
Anyways, the first games I remember playing were on that PC and the two I remember the most are “Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame”, and “Commander Keen 4”. Both were hard af, especially for 6-year-old me, and I never beat any of them. My many years older cousin was able to finish Keen 4 though, and it was so fascinating to watch him complete the levels one by one and translate the story to me (from English to German).
Also very early on, I had a Game Boy and played the crap out of Pokémon Red, Tetris and Duck Tales 2, but I believe the PC came first.

I believe my first game was either Asterix: The Gallic War or Asterix Mega Madness. I don’t really know which, got both as demos in one of those Kelloggs box’s.
Remember absolutely loving Mega Madness for it’s party-game esque mini games, the Gallic War was a mediocre action platformer with some slight strategy at the side.
Always fun reminiscing about old games.
