Brought back some memories ... certainly will go and add this on my wishlist. Btw, if you want to lose your social life, then play Fallout 4. @Stosta this is entirely your fault

I am also in...

I still remember the days of text based pc games...

green screen and
Open Door....
"the door opens"
Walk inside..
"you walk inside the dark room"
Switch on light
"There is no light switch"
Use flashlight
"you have no flashlight"

Those were riveting games...

Hahahahaha my best was the original 'hitchikers guide to the galaxy' in the days of DOS and CGA screens.

The First question was a dos prompt asking 'would you like to play in color, y/n?', if you selected yes the whole game would be in green text instead of white, brilliant.

Kings Quest, Space quest, Police Quest and Leisure suit Larry. Funny thought, Leisure suit Larry Free State style - Boer soek n hoer.

Although not favourites, I remember them well. Even got Carmagedon on my tablet at the moment. What could beat driving around aimlessly, smashing into cars, pedestrians and cows. It's poetry in motion

My first computer back in the 80s was a Spectravideo Msx. Groundbreaking in its day and even still to this day if you drop it from high enough it would break the ground. Along with this masterpiece of technology my dad brought a box of cassettes with games on it. Wow! Life was good... until one fateful day my dad brought me an industrial magnet. Unfortunately the magnet and the game tapes where stored in close proximity which left the tapes rendered null and void. So I ended up playing with the magnet instead.

No its not funny @Clouds4Days
I could have been the next Mark Shuttleworth.
Sad sad days. On the up side, I can show you some cool tricks with magnets

I never experienced those days. My first PC i got was in 2000 pentium 3 running on windows 98 with 64mb ram and a 10 Gig hard drive

The only game i ever played on it was Grand Theft Auto (the first one )

Later on i spent 1k upgrading it to 128mb ram and putting in a graphics card just so i could play need for speed on it

My first computer was the ZX Spectrum

Spent hours on it programming little routines in BASIC and loading games like space invaders etc from an external cassette player.

What a cute little computer. Had these great rubberised keys. Loved my spectrum. Think i still have it somewhere in the garage storage boxes. Didnt want to chuck it even though I will never use it again.
