Of course not.A video game is nothing more than an interactive 3D movie in which you can manipulate the images. If anything, you're helping prolong one of the most innovative forms of entertainment and mental stimulation.
I'm tired of society and age discrimination. If I want to enjoy a game at age 35, then I should be able to without people thinking that's weird! If I want to slide down the slide at the kids park, I should be able to without the cops questioning me! Slides are still fun damn it!
I think of gaming as the future of entertainment. It is something that would only get more popular, not less.
Plus it is the working adults that have the financial means to shell out the money for gaming, it would be wise for the developers to take this into consideration when deciding what types of game to put into market

Also, since gaming is about our age, it grows older too. More and more mature games come out on more and more expensive, complex systems that only an adult could afford.

[QUOTE="btaylor2404"] Gotcha, by a bit :P. But no TC, I'm 35, and play as much video games as I did at 25. And have no intention of never stopping.btaylor2404
So where is this union for us ppl close to death
place where we can discuss bowell movement (or lack of) :D
Dunno, I guess we could start a near AARP Gamers Union :P. I look forward to, in my coming decrepitude, waving a DualShock5 control at those pesky kids and yelling "Hey, you n00bs, get out of my yard!"
I'm with you Xaos. It's still fun for my son's 15 year old buddies to show up and play whatever and me generally thrash em' at whatever we play, their like "damn your dad's good!".

Lol, Picturing this is pretty funny because if you ever listen to some of the kids on Live, they freak out when stuff like that happens :P
Just this morning I heard a kid yelling "WHAT-EVER!11!!!!1" every time he died.
Not at all. I know a professor at college who's office is full of Halo, Guitar Hero, and many other merchandise. He looks to be in his late 30s to 40s.

Other day i beat my kids friends at Gran Tourismo and their excuse
'' not fair ,you've been playing this for long time '' :D
after that i raised my shaking hands in the air and danced (sort of) :o
Yes, quit now and never look back. Its time to start watching Gray's Anatomy and doing daily crossword puzzles. Just messing with you! I will game until it ceases to be fun anymore and that probably won't happen until I'm dead. I can see myself beating Ultimate Mario World 28 in 40 years.
you will never be too old... Just liek you never get too old for watching TV, or reading books ;) It is just another medium for storytelling (and mindless action :P)
The notion of being too old for gaming is one often used by our parrents, who Ironicly were told the same thing about TV series, back in the day, and they still stick to thier screens like flyies when some adventure series play out.
Just enjoy what you do, and itll be fine ^^ Heck I enjoy sleeping with my teddybear and im 27 ^^
