Me playing Rome:Total War for the first time as a child in an internet cafe. I thought "wow this is so realistic! I feel like I am in the Roman era fighting epic battles!"

That game looked so good for its time they made a whole-ass TV show called Decisive Battles where they used it to recreate famous historical battles. Even my dad who hated video games loved that show. It was one of the only things we ever bonded over.
