While nothing was going on at work, i saw my friend was playing frogger on his computer so then i decided to look for this video game called alley cat http://www.dosgamesarchive.com/download/game/91 which was made in 1984. Download it and try it. Is fun

Now Be WARNED it is 34KB big,

Wow, I've never seen that website before..it is SWEET! I downloaded the first game I remember playing on PC way back called digger...which was pretty much a rip off of dig dug but still a nice trip down memory lane. I can already see myself downloading a bunch of games off of there.

My first real gaming experience was a game called BOMB-Tank Wars.

Still to this day I love that game. Simple and incredibly fun.

Digger was awesome, I loved playing that game. Im gonna have to download that one as well. That's probably the first 2 player game i ever played.
Wackjob don't know if you already knew this but hitting F1 lets you fire this cannon thing on Digger that lets you kill enemies, you only have one shot at a time and once you fired it, you need to wait for it to reload. To play 2 player you hit escape and the welcome screen. After all these years I still remember

I was trying to figure out what keys did that. I remember when I discovered the F1 thing way back...that was a very exciting time. :)

Ahh such fond memories. Digger, Sopwith, Tetris, Police Quest, Space Quest, dambusters and then came wolfenstein and spear of destiny. I believe Sopwith was my first though.

Don't forget about Commander Keen, Cosmo, and the original Duke Nukem games.

Yes I do recall good ole duke nukem and commander keen, did you ever try halloween harry? Twas a very nice bit of platform fun.
If you dont mind downloading the emulator metal slug is a great old game (actually it's a bit newer but definitely good)

first video game I think was pacman. The first real game on PC that I can recall was Bard's Tale. There were other Olympic games played with my friends on the good ol' Commadore 64.

Come to think of it my family will still play "Shuffle puck Cafe" on a Amiga 2000. OH "Stunt Car Racer" was one of my favs as well.

I don't consider 20 years old being old, so you must be like 4 if you think we're old. Now 30 i would call old
