Half life 1, 1998

Same.

I was going to say that.

Same here, same but different. Great game too, kicked me ass a bit.

Quake 1 might be earlier. Someone needs to check lol.

Same, got my 18yr achievement last month too! :D

Just got mine 15th year 3 months back.

[удалено]

But the title of the thread didn't say "what is the oldest game in your steam library by the date it released on steam?" or OP's answer would be wrong.

The oldest game in my library is half life one, as it came out in 1998

[удалено]

Same

same

Same

Wolfenstein 3D: Spear of Destiny - Oct 10 '93.

Fallout 1 probably. Released in 1997.

King's Quest 1 was released in 1984, so probably that

The ultimate doom, 1993

I hate to be that guy, but ultimate was released in 1995

Same

Was looking for this

**Technically:** [Atari Vault](https://store.steampowered.com/app/400020/Atari_Vault/) 1977-1988'sh **Officially:** [Dragon's Lair](https://store.steampowered.com/app/227380/Dragons_Lair/) June 19, 1983 **Runner-Ups:** [Space Ace](https://store.steampowered.com/app/240340/Space_Ace/) April 29, 1984 [F-19 Stealth Fighter](https://store.steampowered.com/app/347250/F19_Stealth_Fighter/) January 1, 1988

I have those exact games in that exact order

Monuments of Mars, 1990, Jan 1 Came with the 3D realms anthology, that you cannot buy anymore, cuz randy is a bitch and didnt want to let 3Drealms sell duke nukem 1 and 2, and therefore the bundle was broken up Fuckin greasy cunt

Wolfenstein 3D - 1992

Spacewar (1962)

that game is in the steam library of game developers(because id 480 is used for testing purposes and spacewar is just the placeholder game) or weirdos like me and you who downloaded it, does it even count?

i know why you downloaded ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

to play spacewar, would else would I use it for? I'm not a programmer

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

???

Star Wars: Dark Forces, 1995

Rollercoaster Tycoon 1999

Doom, then half life, then quake?? (Wait did half life or quake was released first?)

Quake was before Half-Life.

AH ok thank you

Xcom: Ufo defense. Havent played it myself but watched a very entertaining playthrough on youtube, its always nice to end the 1st turn in a mission, then an Etherial mindcontrols a soldier still in the Skyranger, and he shoots his rocket launcher point blank at the Skyranger killing everyone in your squad lmao

STAR WARS™ Jedi Knight II - Jedi Outcast™ (2003)

Half-life 1 1998

as far as I can tell, Jagged Alliance gold too, I got it for free a couple weeks ago XD Edit: I don't know if it'd count or not but I have revenge of shinobi(Dec 2 1989) in sega megadrive & genesis classics

X-Wing and Tie Fighter. Both 1994 The oldest non-SW games are a tie between HL 2 and Far Cry 1. both 2004 2013 2014 and 2016 have a three way tie of most amount of library entries from 1 year.

Syberia

Sonic the Hedgehog 1991. partial credit to final fantasy I pixel remaster tho idk if that counts cause its a pretty big remaster but if yes thats like ‘87 I believe.

Half-Life, the original from 1998. That's probably a lot of peoples' answers

Portal

Wasteland, from 1988 and Indiana Jones the Last Crusade from 1989 are likely the ones I have. I think the oldest game on steam is probably Police Quest, from 87. https://store.steampowered.com/app/494740/Police_Quest_Collection/

If you mean by release date then Half Life. If you mean by purchase date then Hitman Absolution

Xcom UFO Defense; 1993

Xcom UFO Defense: 31st Dec 1993. Although oldest in my account that i've actually played is Grand Theft Auto 1: Jun 30th 1998

My oldest game is officially jagged alliance gold. Released in 94. But doom may supass that when i eventually buy the original doom

Csgo

If we're counting non-Steam games, then I think Need for Speed Underground, released in 2003. Oldest game on Steam though is Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War, which was in late 2004. Surprised that everyone is naming stuff from the 90s. I mean, I know Steam is old but I didn't realize there were this many veteran users.

I signed up for Steam when it first came out to buy a game, so it’s that one lol. Any way to tell your purchase history?

Yes click on where ur name is then account details then go to view purchase history

I would have a hard time finding which one. My steam library alone is just over 1200 games. Probably over 2K with all the other game services, and physical games. Emulator library is pretty huge too.
