But It's awesome?!

Also: Age Of Empires 1 and 2. I remember when I played the first one games would always be about either killing your enemy before he got hoplites or getting them first. If you got them hoplites then you were golden. This was the LAN games I had with my friends, so I still have no idea if that strategy was actually good :o

AoE2 blew my mind. I played that game more than any other with my friends, where we would meet up and play 2v2 again and again. Good times. Nevver played it online, but Huns always seemed imba to me? No houses is just a crazy good racial trait.

Oh, and I guess SC:BW too...

This game was the dogs bollocks, playing constantly, going round my neighbours to play tournements in his garage, just had so much fun on it, I still play it to this day.

8th birthday I think, either way this game had me hooked for years, to say I loved it would be an understatement, Pokemon was my childhood.

A lot of mine was, console vidya turns to PC vidya, which led me on to a heavy interest in computers at a young age, that then turns in to a hobby I enjoy which ultimately leads to me doing a computing course at college, from there I will probably do computer science next year at Uni.

Me and my Dad spent countless hours playing this together when I was a kid. Some of my best memories as a child were playing this game with my pops ^^

Another classic that me and my Dad played a lot.

First video game that i can remember playing was Red Alert 1 on pc. My dad was playing it and it blew my mind (obviously). Then i got into dark reign and age of empires. Never played online so i had no idea how good i was. Then came the golden age of addicition with battlefield 1942. First ever online experience using "the all seeing eye". ( not sure if that still exists). I played that game for like 3years straight. Then i believe that number 2 came out and i hated it due to the lack of vechilces and patches that i wasnt allowed to dl.THEN i discovered the beuaty of "LAN" by playing warcraft 3 tower defences at a freinds house. Then i played on bored aussies (warcraft 3 aus server) for ages. I only started playing SC last year due to being to young to experience it as kid and noone else ever playing it.
