Not that I think there is anything wrong with people of any age playing video games but when I think of people in their 40s/50s, I dont immediately imagine them playing games. I remember trying to get my dad to play games with me when I was a kid (he was in his 40s when I was a kid) and he had no interest in them at all. I got him to play 1 round of street fighter on sega one time and when I blocked all his hits he told me it was a stupid waste of time. Since then I have just always imagined people older than me being not being interested in "playing nintendo". I guess it's what you grow up with. I got my first computer when I was 15, ZX Spectrum with 8K RAM so naturally I played games on it. Though back in those days other than a demo TAPE of program it took a while before you could buy games for it. We would spend hours typing programs in from magazine then spend hours more finding the typos

I guess my contribution to this thread will neither raise or lower the average as I'm pretty much where it is right now if I'm right. I look a lot younger though

Yeah in my 20s my dad commented on me playing games all the time and I was like "dude you spend like 4 hours a day sitting in front of the TV, so do I but I have a controller in my hand" Exactly. I honestly feel like video games have somewhat more legitimacy because at least you are actively engaged and working your brain (be it solving a puzzle or simply just hand/eye coordination and reaction time), whereas watching TV/movies is a completely passive experience. Reading is more active, too, since you're putting forth effort to read the words and imagine the characters/scenes in your mind. I stop reading, watching tv shows, watching animation almost entirely when I turned 20. I had to choose one hobby due to both time and resource restriction... and I chose video game without hesitation. lol Now I find other stuffs too boring and I can hardly watch a movie for 2 hours because they leave me boring as well.

...I'm just assuming based on BioWare stereotypes plus the fact that most of the people in <any> ME SP Forums are whiny crybabies when people don't like their most favoritest gameuuuu~~~ Fixd Edit: Also, some of the loudest whining comes from us old farts. And then, some of the even older farts think everything is beautiful. Senility may be in play, but there is no accounting for taste.

50. Will be 51 in December. You kids get off my lawn. If you stand on my lawn you can mow the grass. (There's not much, but its a "push it" lawn mower which seizes up frequently. You then have to dig out the obstruction and remove the long grass which gets caught around the axle. Hours of fun can be had! )
