Video Games when it all started.

So I don't know what led me to this topic today, other than I ran across a page on Parsec. Parsec you say? I am willing to say that most know nothing of which I speak. The fact of the matter is, Parsec was a video game on the TI-994A System. While everyone else was buying their Ataris to play video games on, my dad bought us something that we could program as well.

Well I remember being at the age of 6 typing in computer code for hours, then debugging, just to have a little game that did in reality very little. I also remember thinking, how in the world does this work, asking, having it explained and thinking " I wonder how all of this works? "

At any rate, the good news the system had video games too... Parsec was at the top of the A list. (Of course I remember later on getting Donkey Kong, that was big times... I still remember looking in the catalog, Stephanie and I picking that out and Jungle Hunt.

So what was your earlist Video Game memories?
