    Age means jack shit to being a gamer, as this proves. One of the best gamers I knew (now deceased) was 60+ when we met.

    This kinda thing makes me wonder, Am i gonna be a 60-70 year old guy playing whatever kind of video games we have in 2050 (if we make it that far).

    I'd like to think so, but who knows what there's gonna be in 50 years.

    was that when halo 5 or halo 6 was coming out?

    man it'd be cool to be kickin' ass at like 90 though...just a matter of arthritis I guess at some point.

    My mom plays half-life 2, and she is fucking vicious in it.

    She was an assistant nurse for the public school system for many many years and now she works at a Hallmark Gold Crown store. You'd never think she goes home and unloads entire clips of ammo into some Combine face.

    I've read about a blind guy playing video games, this is nothing compared to that.

    One of my professors spent about thirty minutes talking about playing Half Life 2, and he's easily in his fifties I'd think.

    I would hope so. Do what you like. Unless you let social stigma get in your way. I would hate to have some grandma comboing my ass in street fighter though. Which brings up another point. Would you talk shit to someone in like halo or some other competitive game if you knew they were in their 60's?

    I don't talk shit on Live at all. If someone else starts talking shit, usually someone else is cunt enough to talk back, and in that case I'll just laugh and listen. Usually they are pre-pubescent voices too, I'd be surprised if I heard a typically older-sounding voice on Live.

    As long old people don't play mithra, it's fine with me. I want to be sure I'm hitting on a hot chick when I talk to a mithra, and the simple thought it could be a grandma is scary.
