    Where are your roots?

    I'm new to these forums and was just wondering, what games/systems did some of you guys start out with? I know I started out with Paperboy and Mortal Combat at a friends house. I didn't own a system until I got my Playstation with Tarzan and Micro Machines. Yeah, I'll admit they weren't great games but it got better from there. How about you?

    Started out with the NES and Duck Hunt. We still have it too. Also still have a SNES (no games), Atari, Pong Maschine, N64, PSX, PS2, GCN, and my brother who moved out recently is getting an X-box (He lives about 5 minutes away)

    Getting off track aren't I... yeah... It was Duck Hunt. I still love that game. OMFG... I wanna play it now lol

    Not counting the game boy, consider me a child of N64!
    Achievement i'm most poud of: All cheats and all challenges on Perfect Dark. Gosh that was hard.

    I love the chaotic insanity brought by fast, unrealistic and weapon-including racers/ How do I enjoy an extreme-g race with "antigrav" so I play upside down on my sofa!

    firsty game I ever played was Sonic 3 on the Computer, I never owned a sega Genesis, but that Sonic game was just like it. I think I still have it on my comp somewhere, I haven't played it in a while, the disc is gettin scratched.
