How long have you been gaming online?

Post » Sat Aug 14, 2010 5:48 pm

I started in 8th grade, which means I've been gaming online for about 7 years. You?

I started about 2004 or so with Xbox Live. Though I play most of my games on the PC, I only play MMORPGs on the PC for multiplayer. I rarely play online anymore, but when I do, its on the Xbox since most people I know dont have PCs that can handle a game very well.

Probably played online the first time around 8 years ago, but I don't do it a lot.

I started on CS:S in about '04 or '05.

Thinking about it now, I've only really played 4 games, 3 of them multiplayer between then and now - CS:S, Age of Chivalry, Mount and Blade: Warband and Oblivion.

The very first game I remember playing online was Neopets which I definitely started playing about 10 years ago but I won't count that. I grew out of that and moved on to Warcraft III. This is when my online gaming got serious. I have spent more hours on Warcraft III's custom games then any other online game. It's been about 5-6 7-8 years i think... maybe even more, I just know that Sheep tag started my custom games craze. :P

I also have Xbox live, but it's only been for three years.

If we count browser games, then it's the same with me as it was with WoOdElF79, Neopets 7 years ago. My first console multiplayer was Resistance on the Playstation, which was I think 4 years ago?

3 years, off and on. With a Playstation 3.

Which is disappointing since I refuse to buy Black Ops, and MW2 is a hackers paradise.

I started w/ doom. Took a long break from games, then my friend showed me COD4 online. That got me hooked again. :)

I'll presume I started with COD4 the year it came out. Not sure how long ago that is though.

Not much of an online gamer. The first time I ever played online was World At War. It was good fun, but I still stick by single player. The only online game I play regularly now is Team Fortress 2.

I play mostly on Xbox Live but I do play online on the PC with games such as Team Fortress II.

I've been playing on Live since the original Xbox, but not seriously until the 360 came out and GoW.

Online since Half-Life, but overall since Tie-Fighter back on Win95. I was way too young. And I've never used anything except the PC. :nerd:

I started my junior year in high school, went one year, then it got too expensive since I have to work for my money and my parents didn't ever get it for me. I have so many other things to spend it on, like getting games, or food. mmmm.... food... :liplick:

since last summer really, I played cod alot, and i also played halo. What i really liked was gow 2, the mode where you fight endless waves of mooks was probably the most fun ive had on xbox live. I actually don't play too many multilayer games tho, they all kinda feel the same,

First played a game over the modem in 1995 with Warcraft 2 and Command & Conquer. First truly online game was Diablo the following year, connecting through Battle.net.

So that would make it... 16 years. :P

I started playing online back in 1997, with Ultima Online.

Good times, good times... Played this for 5 years. :D
