Difficault to remember as my age is a factor.
1st was Elite on a old BBC comp.
2nd was a weird game on the spectrum, name escapes me, but you had to walk around picking up armies for a glorious end battle, across arctic wastes and stuff. bloody good but couldnt tell u what it was called.
3rd and much more recent to get me back in to gaming after becoming a squaddie, getting married having kids etc etc etc was Quake, the first and only.
4th high spot and first real on-line experience was Darkspace.
5th i found Medal of Honour allied assault on line, which is/was awesome. Just loved OMAHA beach and stalingrad. I was crap though 
Now into my new millenium of gaming i have a split between X box 36o and PC.
PC still ahead with World of Warcraft, and my level 68 hunter called colches. Alonsus server.
X-Box just starting to get into on-line gamining, but gears of War is good, Bio Shock is awesome but no on-line , and waiting to play GRAW on line which is supposed to rock, cant get into Halo 3 on line for some reason as it just picks friends and not global play????
brief synopsis.????

Starcraft. Oh i suppose i played games before that, but the first time I walked into the computer lab and saw all my friends playing against each other on this new game...I was hooked. I immediately threw a boot to the head of my nearest friend and logged on. I quickly caught on to the basic dynamics, built up my economy, and evaluated my enemies. I selected the weakest one, the fool had no units, just a bunch of cannons. I increased my armor and attack power and started building a massive army of units. I had so many they filled the screen, and I knew none of my opponents could possibly match my armada. I threw a blatant insult across the chat window and ordered my army into battle.
....
....
....
they promptly destroyed my two dozen scv. Hey they look like combat units and you know it!

Now that I think about it, it was probably Dune 2000 rather than Road Rash. Or maybe Lemmings...
