My first game ever was actually the original "Pong". I still remember it very clearly - My older brother invited me over to one of his friend's house to marvel at the beauty of his brand new Pong console (Yes, Back in those days a video game console could only play one video game). I remember how shocked I was to see the friend's TV being used for something interactive, That was a totally novel concept back then. In fact, I remember asking my brother if everyone can see our game right now because all I knew about TV is that it broadcasted the same shows to everyone.

After that I was hooked. My dad bought us an Atari and I never looked back. From Pacman and Space Invaders to, Currently, Dragon's Dogma 2 - I play what I can, When I can and I love it! Gaming is for life!
