    hmm...you didn't say hooked on what. If it's on videogames...Gotta be Combat for the Atari.


    OK, so if it is hooked on the XBox, it would be a toss up between Halo and DOA3.

    Oh yeah, and welcome to the boards

    Welcome to the boards! You'll enjoy your stay I'm sure. I think the first game would be DoA3. But I didn't buy Halo until 2 months ago.. that game rocks.

    If you are talking about videogames in general.. I think I was born hooked.

    halo duh
    <center></center>

    Don't mind him

    I will have to say that after playing DOA3 I was hooked. It wasn't the best fighting game in the world (but close to it, mind you), but the graphics were enough to make me drool. Also, just knowing that M$ was involved was a huge deciding factor.

    And btw, aj, welcome to XBA, I hope that you enjoy your stay

    hehe...well I had to come back in here cuz I was thinking about whether or not he was asking about becoming a true gamer, or if was just the Xbox. But I became a fan of games had to be from playing the MK and Killer Instinct series at the local deli when I was in High School. I remember those days when we'd play tourneys while skippin class, can't beat the err... high...education

    i wasnt around for atari. i started snes when i was like 3. my aunt loved the old final fatasy series. final fantasy II (which is really ff4)
    and zelda a link to the past and super mario were my first games. in final fantasy went from walking around and when i fought i just pushed the same button over and over to fight. then i started using gamegenie to cheat and i actually learned to play then i got off genie and acutally started playing. then i was really hooked. now i beat almost all the games i play and video games are my big thing.

    Blood Wake was the first game that really pulled me into the Xbox. Man that is some good stuff. I got my Xbox on launch along with DOA, Madden, and Nascar Heat which were all great games but I knew exactly what to expect with them. Blood Wake kinda took me by surprise..I love that game!

    all you people have it wrong. hes not talking about the first game you played for the xbox. he wants to know what was the first game you ever played that got you hooked on videogames

    Not sure if this counts since it's a PC game, King's Quest II.

    I'd probably have to say VectorMan for the Sega Genisis.



    Or Desert Strike for my really old PC. I was really young, but I used to play with my dad.

    Played Asteroids on arcade when I was 5. Instantly hooked (so was my father) so he bought an Atari 2600 and Asteroids.

    Xbox: Playing a demo Halo on a kiosk in EB, convinced me I better get it at launch!
