No I never did... I played Civ I though.... But I never quite saw a difference between consoles and PC; they were all the same to me =)
I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!
Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

I had an Atari 2600, an NES, and an SNES but I don't think I was a "gamer". Games were mostly really shallow back then and, even though I enjoyed playing, it was just another diversion. I definitely spent more time reading or playing basketball than gaming.
The game that came along and flipped my switch was Final Fantasy VI.
It happened pretty much after I'd mostly gotten tired of my SNES. I just happened to see it at a used game store while with a friend. I remembered that I'd liked Final Fantasy (1) a lot, so I bought it on a whim. That was the spark that started my engine and directly lead to me buying a PS1 for FF VII. It lead to me buying games like FFT, Suikoden, and Breath of Fire III. It was truly the drug that got me hooked.
The first games I played were on Atari 2600.
Frogger
Outlaw
Spiderman
I really got hooked on games in the MasterSystem & Genesis/Megadrive generations.
It was a Nintendo game because I was the age group they go for.
More specific? It was Pokemon. Either Sapphire or Gold. It was special because it was Pokemon. Need I say more?
For me it was the 1st time that I walked into an Arcade.
I remember was in junior High School. iv'e played video games before. The Atari home console was my 1st romp with gaming. It was so cool to see those things on the tv screen. But the 1st time that I walked into an Arcade, wow, what a rush. The sounds of all the games going all at once, the brackets, Galaga, Pac Man, Joust, Popeye, Donkey Kong, TRon, Centerpede, Dig Dig.
OMFG.
The arcade was built in a circle. there was an inner circle of games stacked to each other and on the opposite wall there was also an outer circle stacked games. So when you walked in the Arcade you were able to just walk right into the middle and go round and round in an endless loop. It was awesome.
But yeh, The Arcade was my gaming birth.
Tetris & Super Mario Land on the original GameBoy!

Starfox SNES.
Besides being the first video game I ever played, its epic Space Opera vibe captured my 5-year-old spaceship-loving imagination.
Age of Empires 1 because it was the first game I ever played and I liked it a lot.
My first system was a Sega Genesis, and my first game was Sonic 2. The game itself didn't exactly turn me into a gamer, but that was at least the start of it. Wanting the system was just sort of a natural thing, I'm not even sure what drove me to it.
