I remember making fun of a guy that was 25 years old when I was playing Socom at the age of 14. I was throwing him things like your old, dont you have things to do, yada yada making him feel like he shouldnt be playing.

Well sheet hit the fan and Im 25 and writing this in a freaking video game forum, the grass needs to be cut, I have so many things to do, yada yada.

So props to all you older gamers out there!

Get a Job.:P

My first game system was an Atari 2600 for Xmas in 1977. You do the math. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go take my Geritol

I play with a good friend of mine on PSN who's 42, married with two kids. I really don't care how old they are as long as there good people to play with.

Whenever I ever saw an adult gamer I thought it was awesome. A friend I used to hang out with has a father who played games a lot. Made me wish my dad was like that, lol.

Now my parrents play Wii, all they play on it are games like Wii sports and stuff though.

yeah... im 21 and the thing about the maturer gamers are that they play with team work. like in BF 2142 they sqaud up and makes the game more fun and the chance of winning being more greater.

The average gamer is 35 and seeing as parents are the ones paying for kids' games anyway....

Persuading the Warden to get a broad band connection for the retirement home is the best thing I ever did.

Thought this was going to be something about old folks in nursing home playing Wii Sports and shaking the Wiimote at the TV all funny.

Yeah, I'm old now. 30, but still gaming. Not as good as I used to be, but I try.

This. The market and media have gone beyond jumping on turtles back's and shooting big pixels into little ones.

TC realizes what will hit everyone at some point or another.

Gaming is by definition an ageless hobby, as it started in the early 1980's with 8-bit computers.

If you really want to go back more, you should count pinball machines, as they were games as well.

I'm 22 and still gaming. I have been gaming since I was a kid. Honestly, I don't think age should matter when it comes to gaming seeing how you're never too old for anything. Those kids who do hassle older gamers will be visited by Sweet Lady Karma sometime down the road.

Anyways, just have fun and keep on gaming.

I used to think older gamers where a joke until a wonderfull thing at Blockbuster happened 2 years ago. I wnet to rent Saints Row 2 but my very uptight elderly no nonsense dad had to pay for it since I was too young while he was waiting in line a man about 40 came up to him and started discussing Saints Row 2 with him and how he found the respect system tedious after a while but he enjoyed the way Stilwater had been redeveloped since the earthquake. Ever since that day I've always cherished older gamers.

Sheesh 25 is old? I'm 25 and I didn't make fun of older gamers when I was little. I respected them because they were usually better than me at games.

I don't talk trash, I don't see the point. A good tea-bagging is as insulting as I'll get.

It went beep boop bop beep and it was sweet. No, it sucked. We didn't play games like people do today. We didn't have cable, Internet and net flicks nor many great gamesso when it rained or we couldn't find something better to do we play the **** games of the past until it stopped raining or a friend called.

I'm 21, I've been gaming since I was three years old... I don't see myself stopping anytime soon.
