I think I got into gaming when I was like, six? Maybe seven? Two of the earliest I can remember were computer games, one was "Barbie's Fashion Shown", and the other was "Hide-and-Seek with the Moomintrolls". I remember playing a Bomberman game on the...Genesis, perhaps? You could ride on colorful kangaroos in it :D

I played a bunch of horse games on the computer(basically, games where you buy and take care of a horse, like grooming, riding, sometimes enter competitions, etc). I also played some fighting games, like the first Soul Edge(nowadays more known as the Soul Calibur series), and Rival Schools(man that game was fun \O/)with my older brothers.

The very first adventure game I played was The Legend of Zelda:Ocarina of Time, which I counted as the first "real" game I ever played(since it had a story and such - lol like the fighting games didn't XD). I was ten, I think, when I played it, and it's still my favorite Zelda game.

But to get back on topic, I think it was my older brothers who introduced me to gaming. I remember always being around them when they were playing games, so I think they pretty much influenced me into the gaming geek I am today :)
