What age were you

[Breezy]

Ok i would like to know what age you were when you first started playing a civ game and what were your first impressions for me i was like 7 when i first played civ 1 i thought it was the greatest game i ever played i was addicted to it for like 2 months

I was probably about 7 or 8 also when I first played civ 1. And like you I was addicted! My first proper computer game, loved it!

I was about 6 when I got my amiga. I was more into Sids Pirates! than civ at the time though. I remember sitting their for hours with the pirates map on my lap playing the game.

Some other games I was playing at the same sort of time.

• Dune 2
• North and South
• Stunt Car Racer
• Syndicate
• Frontier Elite 2

[OpenAgony]

Umm I was about 6 or 7..
I played Civ 1 on my Uncles old nintendo.

Let's see....

Civ2 was the first version I played, and I didn't find it until It had been out for a couple years...

I was 42 when it came out ...

I must have been about 44 - 45.

I played Civ2 somewhere between 7-10.

I didn't REALLY play (as in, had an idea of what I was doing) until I played Civ3 when I was 13. C:

i think i was around the age of 10 when i played my first civ game. It was at my friends house and every time i went over to his house i would demand to play it! .

This is the first Civ Rev game I've played properly, not just throwing the controller at the wall or screaming when I lost. and I'm 18

Who ever posted this poll is youth centric....doesn't probably know any gamers older than 40 since his top age was 22 plus.

Try 68 sonny. Yes there are a lot of "seasoned" gamers out here. I should think you could have at least gone to 50 + instead of 22.

Hello All I am new here and this is my first post,

@bloom= I completly agree with you friend, that is exactly what I thought when I saw the post, no one over 22 ???!! Geuss these youngin dont remeber or know Ataris, Colleco Visions, or NES. I myself am a young 32, but you must have had the pleasure of being able to play the older consoles and remembering the expierence It is really good to see older folk playin. I dont plan on ever stoppin, and niether should any of you youngsters!

Back on topic this is my first Civ game ever.

Civ Rev is the only one I have played

First post here.

I was over 30 in 1991 when Civ 1 was released and that's when I started playing.
So, 22+. Having such a youth centric poll does make the math easier.
