I started off with Command and Conquer, some of the orignal Final Fantasy games ( I've finished FF1,4 and 6) and I used to play SC:BW a bit when I was younger, but i could never get the hang of it. Now I play SC2 and a few other games such as Oblivion and Team Fortress.
Dune2 (now abandonware, I'm replaying it right now )
Z (best RTS of all time, "google for bitmap brothers")
Total Annihilation
Command and Conquer (all of them including Red Alerts)
Warcraft (all)
Supreme Commander 1 & 2
Dawn of War 1 & 2
Starcraft 2
Soooo... Couldn't help but notice you left 7 out. Please explain? Que pasa?
I have nothing against FF7. I just don't have the game when I was young till date. Neither do I have a PS1 during that time. I would definitely play it because i know it's an awesome good game. I'm playing Crisis Core because of that. I'll definitely play FF7 if it is released for HD Blu Ray for PS3.
Anyway, this is how FF7's story progresses:
Crisis Core, FF7 then Advent Children. - to get the best from the storyline.
Tio Boh? (Now you know?)

Started out on a Commodore 64 with games like Stunt Car Racer & Speedball 2.
Stunt car racer and speedball ftw!
My parents thought 'pc games' were just a phase I was going through.. fkn bought me a 386 laptop though (at the time kewl). Pentium 133mhz was my first 'fast' pc though, 2mb graphics card! I'm so old now T___T
Where to begin??
Well, from the beginning the very first game I played was FF7 on PS1 when i was 4, to this date it is my favourite game of all time (No hate please). Continuing on from there I proceeded to play FF8 and FF9 along with my GameBoy Colour games Pokemon Yellow FTW. Then I got PS2 and played FF10 pretty much, Xbox came along and played the shit out of Halo, Halo 2 Dead or Alive 3 Timesplitters 2 and 3. Then, there was the 360 that awesome sick as white box of goodness. Halo 3 Halo Reach CoD 2,3,4,5,6,7 Street Fighter 4 Lost Odyssey the list goes on...
It wasn't until recently my friend introduced me to the Resident Evil series which I love now, as well as Dino Crisis on PS1. I also have a PSP which I spend ages on Monster Hunter Freedom Unite looking forward to localised Portable 3rd (The next one in the series) so far only in Japan But with that said, SC2 is the ONLY computer game I play, I have Supreme Commander 2 but that sucks. As far as RTSs go, SC2 is my favourite, although I have played a lot of the Command and Conquer series as well as WC3 which I played at LANs a bit with some friends. Formerly known as Games Village, then known as 1Frog Gamesworld and now it's something else...
I only played games casually until about 2007 where I went to eGames expo in melbourne with some mates and destroyed a CoD5 LAN, from there I joined CG and got pretty good at CoD. Now I watch eSports pretty much every day and aspire to having some form of career in eSports
Grew up in Korea watching Brood War then came to Singapore when I was 4 and played some Halo: Combat Evolved then it was BroodWar, Maplestory, CS 1.6, Warcraft 3, Dota, CoD:MW2, Black Ops, CSS,TF2 then Starcraft 2 & MW3.
I started playing BW and sucked so bad haha, people BM'ed me for being so bad... It was my first time playing multiplayer online :'(
A few weeks later I bough supreme commander forged alliance, which was pre awesome to play and got right into it. Managed to get to the top 300 ranked players before having to give it up for university, and funny enough my hero was TLO, and his partner TBO (the big one).
Then coming back from my break I find out he is pro SC2 and im 3 years out of high end gaming
Talk about sucks haha
Im coming for you TLO!!!!! I challenge you to sc2 and SC:FA

I went there! There were so many comps dedicated to CoD5 and Quantam of Solace.

My first agme I ever played was, LYLAT WARS (worth the caps), then I went onto playing battle realms with my primary school bf, we were like fully sick at it, it wasnt long after primary school that I got into xbox live halo, I played that for 3 years maybe, got semi good at it, got bored of xbox though, so I thought I would give WoW a go since one of my mates was all like "yeah man its pretty sweet ey" so I got the battlechest, lol best 80 bucks ever spent, I got a trial for sc2 in the case which made it worth it, I played WoW for like 2 days and I was doing nothing but greiving dungeons lol. now its me and sc2 for a long time

well I started playing pacman and stuff as a kid which eventually evolved to me getting a PS1 and playing final fantasy 7, 8 and 9 which then moved on to pc games my first pc game ended up being Starcraft although I did only play it offline and in LAN eventually I got to warcraft 3 although I can say I wasn't exactly decent at the game and then came dawn of war all the way to soulstorm and pretty much took a break from RTS until a year after SC2 came ( got the game after my friend invited me to play it and I've been hooked ever since) oh I've been playing Skyrim a bit too much now I'm trying to get back into SC2 :P
Ahhhh the old days.....An Atari 800XL was the first console, if you can call it that, it took cartridges, and we had all the usual stuff, Donkey Kong, Pac Man.
Then I moved on to the Nintondo, the first one, with Mario Brothers. Played that to death.
After that it was the Sega Master System with the ever lovable Alex the Kid, picked up a few games from that, but nothnig really stood out.
The PS1 was a big step up, but again didn't play a lot of games on it.
It wasn't until I started playing Quake that I really enjoyed gaming. That (obviously) moved on to Unreal, and Unreal Tournament, and the joys of online gaming with a 300 ping.....hahah
From there I played a lot of Red Faction online, we even had our own clan, and probably the 2nd or 3rd best team in NZ. After this it was Red Alert and into BW.
The rest is history. Don't play as much as I'd like anymore, but I'm old and married, and work full time.
Funny how I find this thread after I was just sharing with some friends something similar. My first RTS games were probably Ancient Art of War at Sea and Dune 2. But before that my brother and I played Atari games and other smaller simple PC games. Then moved on to warcraft, c&c, sc1, master of magic, heroes of might and magic etc etc. Bought this super long cable to lan up between my brother's comp and mine across 2 bedrooms so that we can play broodwars... tried games such as diablo and descent but much prefer RTS games... though descent is pretty cool
I played dota dota dota , and only dota is my history , after heard of starcraft 2 , i got the game and start playing team game.. always scare to play 1v1.
well that's all i can tell for my history , whenever i get stressed from sc2 , i play dota.
Played WoW Pre-BC then BC for a little - Narkan: Night Elf Hunter on Aman' Thul
Played in a top 6 in Aus/NZ Battlefield 2 team as a Commander - Team Renegade
Played in a top 6 Battlefield Bad Company 2 team as a Tank driver for 8v8 (Top 4 of the tank crews in Aus) - Team 7
Played in a #1 team in Battlefield Bad Company 2: 4v4 Squad Rush as a medic - Team 7 (#1 on the only ladder for a while then quit)
Currently playing Counter Strike Source and SC2 Silver (mainly with mates and some prac games against mates).
