To eBay!
And in a GAME shop in Leeds I've seen PS1 games from 1995, and PC games like Lego Stunt Rally too. PC games seem to be still sold new even if they're 10 years old as well, because other publishers buy them and sell them as budget games. I got Worms 2 and Worms Armaggeddon in a twin pack for £5 in such a way.

Oh wait.
Does Amiga count as a PC?
I know we used to call it a Gaming Computer.

In that case I believe I played Simon the Sorcerer, Cannon Fodder, and James Pond as first games.

I don't remember exactly, but I think it was pacman or pong, packman could have been on 8bit aswell. I remember people telling me that I was 3years old when I started atleast

Exide: Amiga was one of the first pc's in the world, so why would you not?

Edit: It gotta have been a remake of pong I played. Since pong was an arcade game released in 1972 Silly me

[Darthfett]

Don't know what I played first, but I certainly remember these games:

Scooter's Magic Castle (1994)

The Secret of Monkey Island (1990)

Now that's old!:

Police Quest 1 (1987)

The Magic School Bus: Inside the Human Body (1989)

I barely remember some of the screenshots of police quest, I have vivid memories of Monkey Island, and remember some of the (pointless) stuff I did in Scooter's Magic Castle.

There are quite a few other games I remember playing (some I don't even know the name): Eagle Eye Mysteries (in London), Kids Works 2, and a game where you helped Peter Pan rescue the lost boys from Hook.

 

[13lade619]

it's kind of a police game where you solve riddles and stuff to find carmen.
