One of the first videogames I remember is Omega Race on the VIC-20. I guess it's a descendent of Spacewar or Asteroids. Seemed pretty exciting at the time and I did not mind the white-on-black graphics. Actually it's quite pleasing to look at. Today it would be a daring artistic decision to make a game look like that.
Omega Race was always a favorite of mine too. I had the ColecoVision version, which used the trackball, as well as a version for the C-64, which was pretty good. I may have had the Vic-20 version (I have it now), but don't remember. A hard, but fun game.
