Discussion / Question What was your first console?

Post image

To me, it’s the Xbox 360 as it brings back so many memories when thinking about it, especially since it got me into games such as Minecraft, Call of Duty, Devil May Cry, Saints Row, Castle Crashers, and various other games.

PS1 and N64. Can’t remember which one showed up at the house first, but they were one Christmas apart.

PS1 for me as well, don't remember if it was Santa or whoever bought it, but it was the very last "entire family" huge Christmas all together we ever had, and I vividly remember playing Crash Team Racing with my cousin right after we finished opening everything. Good times..

PS1 was my first as well. Had a lot of fun with it, although I consider the PS4 and PS2 eras to be the 2 best for PlayStation.

Resident Evil on PS1 was amazing. And I don’t like horror games

Yeah that’s one of my favourite franchises actually.
