    Default First videogame you bought with your own money?

    Do you even remember? I think mine was Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

    Or are you one of those people who has successfully pirated every game you've ever wanted

    You give an actually good thread to these guys?

    Mine was Pokemon Red. Right after my birthday, I had some money to by a game and I liked the red dragon on the cover.

    Gears of War for me. It's around the time I started earning my own money to spend.

    Wait, is this thread legit?

    I like how we're the only ones posting here.

    Mine might have been Heavy Metal FAKK2.

    And my first one was a Spectrum game, hell if I know which one. Let's just pretend it was Batman.

    Ugh, I should've created threads in GG, then. They're just gonna rot here, empty and unused.

    I cannot remember, but Ultima IV for Apple IIe+ may have been it.

    No, I take that last post back. I remember I got Ultima IV for Christmas. The first one that I absolutely remember was Wargasm for PC. Awesome game.

    I never had much money that was, you know, MINE. So buying games didn't really cross my mind. I think the first one I bought was with gift money, and was Sonic Heroes for the Xbox.

    Heh, I still play it. Love that game so much.
