What was the first game you ever played on PC?

[TheNihilanth]

Come forward and tell us! :D
Mine was Nightmare Creatures, played it circa 2000, Acer PC Intel Celeron 433Mhz, 64Mb RAM (?). Might not be a great game but I really enjoyed it.
Here is an screenshot

Command & Conquer when I was single digits old in elementary school still.

[RandumKiwi]

I can remember Dangerous Dave:


And... Lemmings:


And... Ken's Labyrinth:


And... Commander Keen:


And... Duke Nukem:


And... Alley Cat (by IBM):


And... Wolfenstein 3D:


And... Hover!


And... Halloween Harry:


And... Flight Simulator 4.0:

And... Minesweeper/Solitaire/Hearts/Freecell.

Also I remember some weird game where you entered choices and if you picked the wrong pill during your choices, it was hormones which turned you into a woman and died - super weird.

MS Pinball, Command & Conquer, Total Annihilation, Civilisation III, Halflife/TF/CS, Sim City 2000, Duke Nukem 3D, Age of Empires, etc - all of these were great too, but this didn't come until later.

Now, my first game...  I remember in primary school there was a very old computer there with this stupid game about a talking apple.. and you would tell the apple to do tricks and then it would do them...

@1Cap: You make me feel young.

@Everyone else: You make me feel old.

I have no idea how my father obtained this game and it was in English only... I was ~6.

I think it might have actually been AssaultCube! Haha..
If not, probably 'Crossfire'

EDIT: Worked it out.. UNREAL TOURNAMENT GOTY EDITION! BOOYA!

If you are being technical and literally mean a PC, then Tetris on an IBM 8086.

[titiPT]

Age of Mythology, played it for years

[RKTnoob]

I have an amusement park, so I grew up on arcades. Can't surely remember which game was first, but I do remember playing Donkey Kong before starting elementary school.

and a large number of other arcades, the list would be too long to type.
As for the first computer, I had a c64 with a box of tapes, there's like a stefilion games there, just take your pick.
I still have a fondness for shmups, pinball and table football =D
Later on when I got a hold of a PC it was probably Duke Nukem 3D.
(yeah, I'm old ^^)

[Thrawn]

I... Don't remember ;~;

I'm sure I played some games on DOS here and there, but when I was young I almost exclusively played on SNES and N64. I didn't really get into computers much at all until late middle school / early high school, and that includes PC games.

As a consolation prize, though, I do still own this (Unfortunately, I only have disks 2 through 5):

I do have an older game on 3.5" floppy from 1985, but I never played that one, and I have played Tie Fighter. (I'm pretty sure I played Tie Fighter later on though, not close to the first games I played on PC)

[Iguana]

It was either some video game on n64/snes or teenage muta ninja turtles on the sega genisis or some educational pc game for kids.

But i do remember in elementary school every power mac had marble blast gold installed on it:


and i remember i really loved these games as a kid:
jimmy neutron boy genius

jimmy neutron vs jimmy negatron

[G1gantuan]

some rip off of kingdom hearts. this controversial game contributed massively to the downfall of sales for the AA+ title from Activision 

[Hellspell]

Either MS Pinball or Tetris. Then the stuff on coolmath-games and in 2008 I decided to play
That was title screen it had at the time.
The same year or the year after I then played AC and I can remember making (or it might just have been thinking of making) a thread on this forum where I thanked the community for being so much nicer than RuneScape's.
