Mine was Jet Fighter 2 I bought just after buying my first PC ... a 386 DX 33 with DOS5 back in about 1990, quite fitting really as the machine I owned before that was an Amiga 500 that shipped with FA /18 Interceptor that was the predecessor to this game.
Fast fwd to now and I'm still playing Flight Sim's ! First actual game for the PC would have been Lucas Arts Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis point and click adventure, great game in its time.
What was yours?
For PC the first game that I got addicted to was Dark Reign.
The first one was Bard's Tale on an Apple IIe. I then fell out of the game (heh) for awhile. Played Quake SP in the mid-90s but it was the original Unreal that roped me back in 10 years ago.

Mine was back in probably 96/9. You were a space shuttle who travelled along these coloured block / level type things, you'd have to press left / right / up / down to get to the next brick whilst flying, it was all in a straight line.
Does ANYONE know what this game is called? I used to totally love it!
Probably the first Doom... although it may have been; Duke Nukem or Quake 1 ...
Enjoy!
First PC game was probably Sim City 2000....on two floppies!

I refuse to participate in any debate with creationists because doing so would give them the "oxygen of respectability" that they want.
Creationists don't mind being beaten in an argument. What matters to them is that I give them recognition by bothering to argue with them in public.

The original Eamon Adventure series (text based), written mainly in BASIC, mainly on the Apple ][ (non of the + crap!). Then there was Adventure (this was on a DEC VAX I believe). Both in the 70's..

I think the first I bought was Monkey Island
my rig changes to much to keep this up...
first one I played was Doom II on a friend's pc in 1995. First game I bought and played was Quake II after I acquired my first computer in 1998 (Pentium 233/3DFX Voodoo/64 MB RAM...)...followed by Unreal and Half Life...I consider these 3 games (QII/HL/Unreal) as what started the whole 3D gaming madness
