RetroBorg:

Space Invaders.

Before Space Invaders video games were just something that was interesting and new to play, then Space Invaders came along and it created an addiction. Arcades had huge banks of Space Invaders and would hold tournaments, I can't ever recall a Pong tournament.

Apollo:

Space Invaders, I was 10. Then came Galaxian the next year, omg! colour! By the time Scramble turned up a couple of years later I was hooked for life. Good times.

spidermonkey:

My first love was "Astro Invader" at "Lucky Leo's" arcade on the boardwalk in Seaside Heights N.J.

Xiaou2:


 When I was 7 is about when i started to play... and wasnt that good.   I know I spent more time on Segas Turbo than anything else at that time.. but loved them all really.

 Later I got Hooked into Spy Hunter.   And Sill love the game.  Bought the real machine.

 Out Run is also a huge fav.  Fast, instense, and beautiful gfx.

 RoboTron 2084   was one that I couldnt get into as a kid - too hard, and gfx seemed too primitive, yet now, its a my top favorite game.   Nothing gives you such an all out primal adrenalin rush as that game!   



Zero_Hour:

The first game I really remember being hooked on was Rip Off. It was the first vector game I had seen, and it was at the local Bar/Restaurant my parents went to every other week. Shame of it is, I never could play it well. But the losing was very cool. Huge vector starbursts that seemd bright enough to blind you.

My honorable mention would be Crazy Climber, stuck in a laundramat near my house. Probably played it every day for 3 months, and pretty regularly after that, till they got rid of it almost a year later. What college fund?  :P
