Pong was my first game, but I think the one that really got me being a gamer was Sam & Max: Hit the Road from 1993. In between those I played other games on BBSs and MUDs, but Sam & Max: Hit the Road was really where I felt that rush and addiction.

Pong was my first game but not what got me "into" games. That would be Zork by Infocom, played on my beloved Computer 64.
