For me, it was Doom. I went round my uncles house when I was about 5 and he let me have a go on it. All I can remember doing though was wandering around a few dark corridors, not shooting anything.
Pong arcade at the Purple Penny Arcade in Ilfracombe, Devon summer 1973. I was 10 years old. Queued for about an hour to get a go. My mum wasn't too pleased.
Some Frogger type game is the first one I can remember. Possibly played it on a Tandy, seems around about the time I would have been in Belgium.

Can't remember what it was called, but it involved a wooden hoop and a stick.

Re: Whats first game you ever played?
Oooh on this topic someone may be able to help me. First game I ever played on a home computer was Jet Set Willy 1.. but when i got my Speccy 48k the next year (1987 and 7yrs old) I got given a sidescrolling shooter called 'Chronos'. I remember it being damn hard at the time but my enthusiasm pulled me through to the end of the game within a couple of days. I have emulators for almost every platform bar the spectrum and cant find one that works effectively and I desperately want to play that game (as well as Chaos!) so If anyone has it as a rom or know a decent Speccy emu please post here!
