On a computer?
Space invaders on a Commodore Pet in my high school's comp lab.
CRT's with eye-burning high contrast green on black. We'd shut the lights off in the lab after school and play till the custodian kicked everyone out around supper time. I probably got a lifetime's dosage of X-Rays off those tubes.

The first memory I have ever seeing a game was watching my older brother play The Illusion of Gaia on SNES. He would rage so so hard in the Mayan temple level. I tried playing but I really didn't understand anything as I was probably 6 or 7. I still own the game tho and I love it!
I also remember the day he brought home Asheron's Call for PC. This was the first MMO I was exposed to and entire reason I love the MMORPG genre so much. I remember we used some database app that had a list of all the spells and potions and all of their reagents. We printed the entire thing off in a bound booklet so we could access the content easier haha. I miss AC!
