Man, I can't believe nobody else has mentioned the first online game I really got into. Starsiege Tribes. Prior to it I had played LAN games of Doom II and crap like that, but they just didn't have the teamplay and strategy that I loved about Tribes. Also the huge sets of weapons packs (Renegades is still my favorite) and the ability to play the game on pretty much any computer made it a favorite of mine.
Eventually I got really into Starcraft (hence my username) and into the Use Map Settings games; I remember downloading maps that had broken triggers in them, I'd fix the settings, and then people would quit games I'd create going "WTF, I don't want to download this map again!" And I'd be all. >=\
Eventually got into Diablo 1 and 2 with a bunch of my buddies from battle.net (if you went into Open Tech Support back before they split the domains you might have talked to me).
Then one day I bought Half Life for $10, downloaded TFC and CS (later mods included Front Line Force, Day of Defeat, Opera, FA, Action, Natural Selection, and a few others I'm probably not remembering) and haven't looked back.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
