I got off to a late start.  It was Dune 2.

Geoff Cramond's Formula 1 Grand Prix.

Superb game. Shortly followed by Alien Breed '92.

Many an hour lost to those two... ;-)

Sarah Palin... seriously?

The first game I remember buying was Monkey Island, which I bought second hand! I remember at the time I shared a bedroom with my little brother and we shared a TV, I spent so much time playing it that I got banned from using that TV by my parents. So the first time I completed it was on an old black and white portable that I set up on the dinning room table. Good times!

First Amiga game I bought?  Well, I think Tetris came with my brand-new A500 package, so I guess you could say that was it.

After that...  Hmm.  I don't really remember, either.  I think it was a flight sim.  I probably should have gotten Falcon (I later found out it was better), but I think I actually picked Chuck Yeager's AFT 2.0, as that had just come out.  (Like 1989/'90)

It was Defender of the Crown.  I bought it with my A1000.  It appears on the receipt.  I had read the review in Commodore Magazine.

Mine was Arkanoid...I think it was the first game I could actually buy for the A1000.

I think it was Archon or Adventure Construction Set, definately an EA Game. It was the same day I bought my A1000 and WB 1.1 had just been released. Of course I also bought Deluxe Paint.

Late to the party;whatever was in the box:Tetris ,I think.spent hours playing that.Pretty sure  Outrun and a few others were part of the package but they didn't appeal to me.Lost somewhere in my C= stash.Then Defender of the Crown was  probably first game purchased seperately.

What we\'re witnessing is the sad, lonely crowing of that last, doomed cock.

While I can quite remember my first game, I can vividly remember driving to my local Amiga store to purchase Gloom!  Ahh what a game!!  Horribly outmatched by even the the weakest 486 of the day running Doom or Wolfenstein but I played that game for weeks on my trusty old A1200/030!!
