Watching my dad play Wallenstein 3D probably qualifies.
Blew my mind at the time.
New Comics for the Week of 10-03-12
I'd have to say Escape from the Mindmaster on the Atari 2600 with the Starpath Supercharger. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Yf430Ls7Ew I loved the crap out of that game.
Then when I got a Texas Instruments 99/4A Home Computer, I loved Tunnels of Doom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhfQ...WGXERMRtG2Nb-A I put a lot of hours into that one, and it introduced me to player mods (as limited as they were back then).
I'm actually not sure what mine is. I had plenty of Atari 2600 that probably qualify (Star Wars the Arcade Game, Star Raiders, etc) and then there's stuff like Rad Racer on the NES. Wolfenstein was one of the first PC games I owned.
I think one of the first games I recognized as 3D that I played was Faceball 2000 on the SNES, and later Vortex (which seems to be unpopular, but I recall it being actually kinda fun). Beyond that its hard to be sure.
rad racer if we are talking about fake 3d.
if real 3d than no idea considering the things I played on all the different systems, was probably something on pc though...
maybe it was Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffa (or how ever its spelled)
Star Raiders on 5200
Having an "aft" view blew my mind, i was litterally like "how'd they do that?!"
The overview map also took me a little while to wrap my head around. Such an awesome game.
Does the original Star Wars arcade game count?
