I was about five, and being babysat while my mom was out. The house I was at had an NES console and I played SMB 3 for hours. That was my first gaming experience, and next Christmas I got a Game Boy.

That started me off on my gaming adventure, and twenty odd years later I've owned every major console up to the XBOX 360. In between the years I've played on PC and console, lately having been more of a PC gamer in the past few years. Having made the switch is great, I don't have to own a lot of consoles to play the games I love. I still own a PS2, because it has such a huge library of amazing games.

I also play some tabletop RPGs, like Dungeons and Dragons, Fate, and GURPS. I'd say in some ways having that experience is more fun than electronic gaming because you get to really be creative, there is no set path past what the GM sets up.
