How did you guys get into PC gaming?

(1/5) > >>

HideoKojima:
Console gaming is pretty typical to get into but PC gaming seems like it was always a different process for everyone.

(I thought I saw a thread on this but wasn't sure)

For myself I guess the "start" was my teen years of being addicted to Spoiler (click to show/hide)runescape awful game... can't believe how much time I wasted onto it.

Though I quit I was somewhat used to playing on PCs, and then eventually they did that free Portal thing on steam, so I made a steam account and such with a retarded name thinking I'd never really use it.(Thank god I don't have to use it...) and I couldn't even play it because my computer was from the dinosaur ages. So I never played it but always wanted to because I heard good stuff about it.

Eventually I got myself a laptop and was finally able to play Portal and had a great time, and then I started using it on the friend pages on /v/(might as well say it since I know half you guys go on 4chan) and I got a few friends and started using it more and then they had the begging threads and someone was offering a SMB(and a TF2 guess pass which was really fun) which no one wanted so I got it and eventually started buying humble bundles and other indie bundle crap. And then the first sale game,  I heard a lot of TTT on /v/ so I bought CS complete and Garry's mod, and so I met a lot of you fags Spoiler (click to show/hide)who I love 5evr <3 and began my process of TTT addiction and more PC gaming stuff and eventually actually building a 950$~ computer...

Now I have lots of games and I blame Gabe for the free portal. That damn evil genius.... I didn't ask for this.



So now how about you guys?

Believe it or not, my first ever PC game I completed was Marble Blast Gold, an amazing game.
I played DooM a few years before MBG, and I sucked at it and I had to have my grandfather finish the level for me  ???

It started when i went to college, met a good friend there who was playing DOTA and TF2....I played a bit on his desktop and fell in love. Dropped the console not too long after. I'd have more games but I'm running stuff on a laptop now.

Your grandfather played games with you? I jelly...

That reminds me I use to play some kids PC games. Like LEGO ISLAND, and some Spongebob games, those are one of those things I forget a lot. Though I don't think that really impacted me on becoming a PC gamer.

Come to the dark side and make a PC. Feels so good having no lag ever.

I haven't dropped my consoles. I still play them a lot. Though I'll probably get most 3rd party games on PC now. Seeing as they get so cheap.

RIP in peace trophy(ps3) whore old me ;_;

Castiel:
I want a PC beleive me. After I saw what Deacon built I've wanted one, but I don't make enough money to afford building one and paying my bills. Maybe one day....
