Going back to your beginnings in PC gaming: the first game you played and loved, but the frame rate and resolution weren't ideal. Your first "I need/want to upgrade my specs" basically.

Not sure if this really counts, but I was given a copy of 'The Movies' when I was younger. Turns out it needed a DVD player to read it, but at the time I only had a CD player, so had to go out and buy an external DVD player to use it. Besides a few very lightweight PC games, I played on console most of the time and never got a true understanding of 'specs' until later in life.
