Of your journey in gaming, everyone has an origin story.

Whether you purchased the game or it was given to you as a gift, what was your first game?

My first game was Frogger on the Atari 400. I loved it. I still do, to be honest. It was a fantastic introduction to home gaming. In regards to the first game I ever bought with my own money, that was Excitebike for the NES. That was the fruit of a summer of lawn mowing money, right there. To totally date myself even further, I ordered it from the Sears catalog.

Super Mario Bros (NES). I got it when I bought the NES in 1987 while in college. Zelda and Shinobi followed, with others. Shinobi almost cost me my relationship with my girlfriend. All nighter playing and slept through taking her out to a nice dinner before taking her to the airport. She forgave me… eventually >.< and is now my wife (of almost 30 years). Whew!

Hello, gamers. If I remember it right, the first game I bought was the CS: GO game.

Hello, gamers. If I remember it right, the first game I bought was the CS: GO game. I don't count the games I had before, like Dota 2 beta access or the Dragon Age disk. I am still playing Counterstrike and watching all incoming esports tournaments. I'm glad that this game is still growing, and the prizes pools are rising year to year. It allows me to get some good money from my bets. With my game experience in CS:GO is not hard to predict the waggers. Usually, I bet my skins with the csgo trade bot, so I can always convert my skins in real cash.

That's a pretty tough question. It has to be Minecraft for me. There are many games that I've played when I was a kid, but I didn't have a computer until I've reached high school. I've started to notice that kids these days have computers while they are in kindergarten and it's a pretty weird thing to see. I'm starting to catch up with these games and now I've started to play some Counter-Strike with some friends of mine who sell csgo skins. This concept of selling different skins is something that I've never heard before, but I'm willing to see if I can actually make something out of this

It was dota 2 and you know, I'm still obsessed with that game, now I'm quite interested in dota 2 betting sites as I have found this website here on https://tips.gg/bеtting/dota2-sites/ and now I would like to try something like that, have you ever heard anything about it? Thanks in advance for any answers.

Also, there are a lot of problems regarding USB flash sticks. I have lost the data from it a lot of times. With Dropbox, this will never happen again because you can access all your files from any device with internet access. I like more about it because when I am writing a paper for my University course, I usually need to write it in LateX. So if you will have problems with the USB stick, you can use https://www.salvagedata.com/usb-flash-drive-recovery/. This is one of the best platforms nowadays.
