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.

Plenty of games have made me say it, but I can't think of a single one that got me to actually do it.

I do know that Half-Life 1 was the first time I ever looked at the requirements and was floored that my computer didn't even meet the minimum. It was the first game I tried when my family got a new computer like 2 years after it came out.
