The one that made you a gamer, not one you liked, or the first you remember, or the one you feel is the best of all time.

What was the game that made you say:

"This...this is what I want"

That game that you went apeshit psycho and played 6 days straight till your thumbs bled and your eyes cried for mercy.

What made you a gamer?

for me, its an easy one, Final Fantasy II (american)

I can no longer count the hours I've logged total playing and replaying it, I feel I know every minute square by heart, I can run through it in my mind.

So please, share with us, what was your first love?

After that I was obsessed with Metroid

when you play those games for days straight, beating them 10-20 times in a row to get the various ending animations...

And god knows how many times I beat Chrono Trigger

Well, I also played through FF6 about 13 times...getting the paladin shield 5(6?) times.

And god knows how many times I beat Chrono Trigger

but they weren't the ones, you were a gamer by then, as I said, not the best, or the one you loved most....just the one that converted you

The Legend of Zelda got me into consoles.

And Quake got me into PC gaming.

Super Mario Bros got me into consoles in specific

And it's 3 because that's what my SNES cartridge says on it.

You know, the one where you go through time and kill lots of those one ninja guys? That got me!

Thats funny Fal, Diablo was the game that "made me upgrade to 95"

Then it was.. lessee... Questron II.

On Console, it was SMB on NES.

OH! And Frogger with that like... 2 inchg tall bright green frog.

Or Final Fantasy 6. Either.
