I was 13 in 1996. Friends of my parents' asked me if & which computer game would I want as a birthday present.

I said yes, and that I wanted Command & Conquer. We went through a couple iterations where they brought some FMV point & click adventure game and asked if I would like that one or if they should go to the shop to replace it with another game.

After a few tries (every time I said "no, I want a game called Command & Conquer") I despaired and accepted their latest attempt.

That game was Ripper.
