Hey everyone, a new, wet behind the ears second-time poster here!
Look back and find the game that made you realize you truly wanted more of the medium. You may have played other games before, but this was the first one to draw you in and keep you there. I arrived fairly late to the party (mid-2000s). I'd played some Age of Mythology, Total War, Halo, and Battlefront 2, but only in passing. This changed when I was at a friends house and he was wandering the green forests of Cyrodill (Oblivion). He handed me the controller, when I asked what I had to do he said "Anything" for whatever reason, that was such a powerful moment for me and I was hooked. The rest, as they say, is personal history.
OT: The game that brought you into the madhouse...
