Spelunker (yes you could also get this game for NES)
http://www.shacknews.com/images/generated/47de8cf3206c0_featured_without_text_spelunker.jpg
This may have been the first game I ever played that was on pirated disks.. (a friends dad copied the disks for us)

or possibly Karateka....
http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/1062/endin21ch5.jpg
Karateka had the best ending.. If you forgot to change to your walking/running stance from your fighting stance when you finally beat the last boss the woman you are trying to save kicks you in the head killing you.


On the good ole' Atari 1024st.

I also played Marathon. I believe it may be the first real FPS.

I was always a console player, naive, suggesting they were the only real systems to play games on.

Hmm, the first PC game I ever played was a WWII turn based strategy thing. I don't recall the name, but it was a pretty damn good one none the less.

The other game that I was playing in the same timeframe, was some game which was pretty much capture the flag in a maze with some type of hover device. I cant remember it much, I just remember it was something along those lines.
