I got hooked to gaming in a funny way. A guy I liked came over to show me his game and I had no desire to watch or anything. He forgot it and one day I put it in.
Final fantasy VIII in the original PlayStation. I got addicted. Played and played and played and changed the discs. Then got to the end of the game and realized I hadn't gotten doom train. So I had a heck of a time defeating the boss in fact I didn't. So I started over. Literally worked my ass off to beat that game with no guides or Internet to look at to figure out how to do it. When the end came I cried I won't lie. Hundreds of hours... Side quests, trying to level my characters, pass the tests to get more money.
What was your first game that got you hooked? What was your story?

2 RepliesI grew up watching my dad play FF VIII and FF IX, and that undoubtedly for me hooked. I loved the fantasy feel and the music. I began playing on the PS1 with Croc and the Emperor's New Groove (which was a very good game, surprisingly). Ever since then, I've loved gaming.

When I was young I got a GameCube. I got hooked and addicted to Mario kart double dash/ Crash Nitro Kart, need for speed underground and Most wanted 2005, I still am really good at these games. Then my uncle let me or borrow his PS2 for as long as I wanted and played tons of Gran Turismo 4, gran turismo 3, Lego Star Wars, Lego Star Wars original trilogy, and more. And here I am today with an Xbox 360.

2 RepliesGoldeneye and Half Life. Half Life also got me into game design with their WorldCraft program. I spent hours just messing around, trying to build one simple room lol It took me forever, but I finished and loved it, and became hooked ever since.
