If you're talking able console games it was either Super Mario 64 or Mario Kart 64 (don't remember which one I played first) on my cousins' N64.

I will say the iPhone is surprisingly good for games. Even though I have a Mac and an iPod, I'd initially dismissed the iPhone as stupid, until a friend of mine let me play around on the games he'd downloaded for it, and even let me watch an entire movie on it (really impressive battery power on that thing, the movie was 3+ hours long).

Edward McMillen is rad. I've never played an MMO that wasn't F2P though, my parents never let me have the money for a monthly subscription to anything.

When I was 6 (I know I was six because my mom was preggers with my brother) I first played another console, a PS1 in a hotel room in Spain. The only game was Crash Team Racing.

A while later my dad let me play my first MMO, Everquest. I was a druid I think. This would spark a big pattern in my gaming habits, constantly looking for MMOs and RPGs. After EQ I played the Star Wars and Final Fantasy MMOs, EQII, Rift, and some F2P shit whenever I could find it. But not WoW, not even once. (My interest in fantasy also led to reading my Dad's novels and there I accidentally read my first porno.)

A couple years later I would receive my first personal console, the PS2. Alongside a copy of Crash Team Racing. (And some shitty shit called Pipe Dreams and Cubix, which has a really shitty TV series I recommend for parties.)

At some point in my time with the PS2 I found my favorite RPG of all time, the Arc the Lad Collection.

When I was 15(?) I got my first summer job and bought my own first console, the PS3. This would prove to be a huge disappointment, which led me to PC gaming.

I got a copy of the Orange Box and never played HL or Portal (until a couple years later) but just cracked open TF2. The reason I even wanted TF2 in the first place was because I had seen TF2 porn on /v/, looked it up, and found out it was an MMO. When I played it the lack of tutorial phased me and I shoved the game in the trash.

I picked it up again later and ended up only playing it a short while before my computer became too shitty to run it and I ended up handing over my account to a friend.

Then finally in December of 2010 I picked it up again, this time as an F2P, and since then I accrued 1041 hours and a ton of hats.

In September of this year I continued to weave this rich 2D-obsessive life by going into higher education for Game Art.

My current interests are indie games and anything by Edmund McMillen. My Dad has just stopped playing Rift and is looking for a new MMO. My mom is deep into Asscreed and like 10 different iPod games at once. And my little brother of 14 years wants some Black Ops iteration for Christmas (I think he's tackling Halo 4 right now) but instead I picked him up some hilarious Xbox game that comes with 4 pairs of old-fashioned blue and red 3D glasses so you KNOW it's quality.

My favorite serieses/ individual games are Metroid, Zelda, Pokemon, Half-Life, TF2, Journey, Heavy Rain (Journey and Heavy Rain are actually the main reasons I got a PS3), Mass Effect, and Minecraft. I haven't been playing as many games lately though.

I'm curious as to what your first game was, what genres you like, who introduced you into gaming, and if you're not much of a gamer, why not.

I first got into gaming because there were two girls in my third grade class who liked Zelda and Mario Kart and Pokemon. They invited me to their house to play Mario Kart, and I had fun, even if I was terrible at it (never got the hang of driving in games, even now). I asked for a Gameboy Color for the holidays that year, and even though my parents never really understood gaming, I got one that year, Lime Green, with a copy of Pokemon Yellow. I eventually added a GBA, a DS, a DSLite, a 3DS, a PS2, a PSP, and a Wii to our collection.

My two favorite franchises are probably WarioWare and Kirby. I love platformers like Jak & Daxter and Sly Cooper, offbeat games like Katamari Damacy, and I even own a couple rhythm games like Elite Beat Agents and Rhythm Heaven (although I'm terrible at them). I find hack and slash games like Torchlight and Bastion relaxing (unless I'm at a rough part, where they become maddening).

Portal 2 probably has my favorite ending of any game ever, although I'm still stuck on Half-Life 2 and the original Portal. I love TF2, but I have a love/hate relationship with other pubbers. I miss playing L4D/2, because the people I used to play with seemingly dropped off the face of the earth. I get headaches sometimes when I play L4D, though, maybe I need to adjust the framerate...Killing Floor is a lot of fun, too, but it's a buggy mess sometimes and I wish it wasn't.

I accidentally said "slaymation" the other day, and someone told me it'd make a good Clayfighter sequel title.

Arguably, Willy Wonka and Alice and Wonderland are pretty colorful movies of his. I might like it, then. I admit I'm not an old-school gamer (I tried emulating Final Fantasy 1 once and I ragequit), but I can try it out and see if I like it.

Also, there was supposed to be a new ClayFighter game. It was gonna be for the Wii, but no one ever heard about it, again. I think it got canceled :(
