Average age of gamer




Topic started on 19-1-2005 @ 11:54 AM by potato boy


Hi gamers
What is your age?
I've heard that the average age of gamers is 29.
I'm 33 and plan to keep playing till I can't any more.
I've got an Xbox and plan to keep on getting the next generation consoles.
Not so acording to my wife

So is there such a thing as "to old to play video games" ?
Let me know your views....thanks

That's what brought the Pilgrims to the new land. Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happy gaming.

I'm 33 as well, and still enjoy playing games. Tell a guy he's too old to play games is like telling a woman she's too old go go shopping for clothes. It's what we like to do, and that doesn't change with age. The trick is playing enough to enjoy it, while not playing too much to annoy the wife. Your best ally in this war is your children. "But honey, the kids really need the lastest gaming console so they fit in with the other kids at school".

I'm 30 and have been heavily into video games since the Atari 2600 and Intelevision were released.

Well I'm 14 and I've loved video games for over half my life now. And believe it or not, my goal in life is to be a successful video game designer. You're never too old for video games, too young is a different story. I'll be playing video games till the day I die.

I'm 26. I've been gaming since about '86. The only new games I really want to play are the Final Fantasy games. Seems I don't have much time for today's games. I do play lots of snes roms
