I feel like starting a meme.
Jun. 1st, 2005 07:44 pmWhat's the first computer game that you ever played, or can recall playing? Give its name, a brief description, and what kind of computer it was played on.
Actually, I don't remember all the details -- I was too young. ^^; My dad had us on computers before we could walk properly, heh. But it was a very early, very primitive version of The Sims, actually. There was this 256-color house, and a little man lived in it, and you could put stuff in his house, and give him stuff to do. Your job was to keep him happy. I seem to recall that you could get him to cook on the stove, and make someone call him to talk to him, and there was a chair he could sit in with an arm that patted him in the head when he was blue. (Literally, when he was sad, he turned blue. XD)
Alas, the game was on a big old floppy, and I'm pretty sure I accidentally destroyed it by touching it when I had orange juice on my hands. ;_;
I was also too young to really know what kind of computer it was -- it was just The Computer. But I think it must have been the computer that came before the Apple ][ GS, which was our companion through most of my childhood.
