Earliest digital memory

My earliest digital memory would be sitting with my older brothers as we put some shareware floppy discs into our father’s Windows 98 PC to play Doom 2. From that day on I was an avid gamer and have made the study of the intersection between videogames and psychology my passion and field of interest.
