Every true gamer has a cherished videogame memory from their wicked gaming childhood. Mine was watching my brother play Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast and running from Killer Whales. That's when I fell in love with "the game" and I knew what my future would be. What is your earliest videogame memory?

I remember staring at a sweet mostly naked barbarian chick on the cover of some nes game when I was a small child. I can't remember the name of the game, and that is why I'm so hosed up sexually.

Earliest memory is killing stuff in Duck Hunt, but the best is probably when I accidentally cut down a tree in Paperboy and my brother flipped out about it.

I played pacman on an arcade machine my grandmother had when I was two, and I was drat good at it. I got to the fourth tier rather quickly. It was then that I knew I would one day be a professional gamer.

My mom had an atari when ahe was younger and I'd stay with my grandparents allthe time bc my mom was still on college so I'd play a lot of atari games at my gtandmas I liked looking at the labels but the game never matched them and Ib didn't really understand it at the time. I liked food fight a lot and I still remember all the sounds today. It's a good game. I rememember looking up to how good my grandma was at river raid and then growing up and watching het not be able to understand more complicated games. By the time I played Kingdom Hearts at her house.and she just didn't get it I knew we'd never be close again.

Playing super mario bros. and duck hunt at my grandma's house. And super mario bros. 3 which will probably always be my favorite platformer, I love that poo poo. The fish that eats you and kills you in one hit at world 3 legitimately really scared me and probably still does
