Title says it all, what was the first game you remember playing and had fond memories of?

For me it was the PS1, and hearing the OG Crash Bandicoot theme song never gets old for me, got it as my ringtone too!

Probably Duke Nukem 3D, introduced by way of my uncle’s at the time high end computer.

I’d seen arcade games and things, but an actual interactive 3D world I could walk around in was wild. It was also a much bloodier and more “adult” game than anything I’d seen before.

Later that year, 1997, I got a Nintendo 64 for Christmas along with Goldeneye and StarFox64. Those two games became mainstays for me at home.
