  What was your first video game, and on what system.

  Mine was SoulCalibur 2 on the GameCube. I still adore the series to this day.

  First videogame... eh?  My dad had an old Atari system that I played like Pac-Man and Asteroids on... and this really wonky Golf game.  So, I think those would have to have been among my first games ever.  No idea which Atari it was.

  Of the games that I remember well, probably Tetris and Ninja Turtles on an NES.

  Well this is a 3 part answer
  
  First arcade video game I played was Pong in 1972 or '73
  
  Next Sonic the Hedgehog in 1991 and PGA Golf  when I was 40 on Sega Mega Drive
  
  Then Doom on the PC in 1996 . It's been PC games ever since

  Hmm. I'm pretty sure it was Megaman 2 on my brother's NES. I was, what, about 3 or 4 at the time. I still love the series.

  I think the first game that got me into gaming not just for fun, but one that excited my passions for the medium in terms of writing, was Chrono Trigger. I played that on the SNES back in, oh, 2001.

  Super Mario World for the SNES. I'd leave the system running all day while I was at school cuz there were very few save points. And I remember getting EXTREMELY peeved when I beat Star Road, and lost EVERYTHING cuz my sister unplugged the SNES to take to her room to play Pac Attack (mix between Pac Man and Tetris)

  That reminds me of when I had a list of scrawled "save codes" on random pieces of paper scattered around my friend's console so that we could load at the right level for Power Rangers... and I think the Batman game we played did that too.

  And, of course, every once and a while his mom would "tidy up" and throw some out, or we'd spill something and not be able to read the numbers or something.... or get them in the wrong order and have to re-play vast sections of the game.

  I'm probably dating myself a bit here, but mine was "The Smurfs" on the brand new Atari 2600 that I got for Christmas.

  Transformers the game on the very first edition of Xbox 360. I loved that game, and was so impressed of the graphics. Now the graphics are shit-bad compared to the other games I play...

  Not sure, I know I played Alien VS Predator 1999 when I was 4, but I think I played on the PS1 before that.
