My first "games" were the shareware episode of Doom and the HL demo disc. Didn't have money when I was a kid so I rarely got to play on arcade machines in laundry mats, kof and Metal Slug mostly. Love them still, but it wasnt until we got our first family pc in early 2000 and I got to experience those that really pushed me into games. I honestly have no idea where those discs even came from,
