How Old it to "Old" For Video Games?

[Turd Ferguson]

When you can't use the controller anymore then your too old.

I can't believe this "too old for video games" BULLSHIT still lingers, like video games, after close to 30 years, still have the stigma of being for kids only still attached to them.

people need to GET THE FUCK OVER IT.

"Too old for video games" can also be replaced with too old for riding horses, painting your nails, painting pictures, clay sculpting, playing guitar, fishing, etc etc you get my drift.

Like just because it's an activity that involves the controlling of moving pictures on screen makes it something you're supposed to grow out of? Holy fuck, this isn't 1980, people need a smack upside the head.

The average age for a video game player in the US is 28.

The reason's it's so high is because the people around 35 or so who have kids don't allow them to play games today because they know it will turn them into psychotic raving madmen with 0 intelligence as it did to them.

I kinda naturally stopped playing them when i hit like 18

gaming industry got too advanced for me

I still own a xbox but I play it like once a week maybe if I dont got nothing better to do

I'm just hella bad at those games for some reason

when I was 14 though me and my playstation were unseperable

If you really like video games then you are never too old although your taste in games may change. When I was younger I used to like those mario style games like sonic, crash bandicoot and such but as a 31 year old man I can't stand them now, but old school Mario is still good for nostalgia if nothing else.

The only games I can play are online computer games. Anything else is just boring as shit.

Have you played Castle Wolfenstein, GTA Vice City, MAx PAyne, or Hitman 2? If you think those are boring, you are indeed a very hard man to impress.

Yes, if it's not online, it's simply not interesting. The only game right now that I enjoy playing is counterstrike. Mainly because there's so much competition and it has such a high skill level.
