I would play Roller Coaster Tycoon Loopy Landscape and Zoo Tycoon. Tycoon series of the games and the simulators are the best even today. They can be fun when you have time to burn.

Although I'm not sure if I'm going to be getting into playing it for now at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreiMirfi Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I had my first computer at 5 years old. As I remember, I was playing NFS Underground & some sort of Sonic game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Prison tycoon type games have dedicated userbase though. I am not sure how many people love playing this long term. But there are takers definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the long term play is the point where it's most likely a turn off for most people who are into playing the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I don't play PC games with my own device, but I played on my cousin's PC device, and trying to raise money to get my own PC device soon, so I will be going to play it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 First PC game I remember playing was probably something for the commodore 64. But I don't remember any games. First game I do remember is probably that impossible contraptions or whatever it was called. Played that in school a ton growing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the most difficult thing for you to adapt to when playing with your cousin's PC and what's the first game you ever played on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) If I remember correctly, the first time I played any PC games was sometime around 8th grade. Which would be somewhere around 1992-1993 roughly. I'm not certain though. It may have been the previous school year. My memory is all but gone. No immediate memory at all, almost no short term memory, and very little long term memory. Due to drug abuse, and head trauma I have missing gray matter. Let this be a lesson to stay the hell away from drugs people. You don't want to end up like me. To those with children, make sure they understand. The only exception I would make is medical marijuana, as I have a MM card also. Otherwise, leave it be.

skyfire Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I think I remember mostly the arcade days when I played the same. Contra and Mario being the first one and then later the FPS as the time went on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the abuse of the medical marijuana that worries me most of the time because some people don't know when they go off the rails with it.

The Blackangel Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 (edited) It's the same with any drug, legal or not. Caffeine is a stimulant. Alcohol is a downer. Nicotine is a downer. Everyone's drug is different, and the effects can be serious if not kept in check. I drink a 2 liter Diet Pepsi every day. If I don't have the constant caffeine flow into my body, things tend to get bad. I have an addiction to caffeine. People will argue it, but it's just as addictive as anything else out there. However that is all entirely irrelevant, as that is not what this topic is about. Let's get back to topic. If anyone wants to discuss the finer points of addiction, you can do so in the Debate/Politics/Religion subforum.
