I just turned 47 last month and I can remember how I started gaming which was hanging out at the local corner store waiting in line behind all my friends just to be able to dump a pocket full of quarters into the machine, and I'm still going strong today. I just can't get away from it.
I'm 48 and still enjoy it, when I was on world of tanks ,someone did a poll and it turned out the most common age range on that game was 45-50.i once met a guy on there who was 73 .told me he was retired still in good health and had nothing better to do. cheers to him . and to all of us long-toothers who still enjoy something that we enjoyed growing up. I may not be very good at this game ,but i'll kick your azz on pac-man.(the original)
I was really good at Defender and Missile Command
I miss Pac-Man *sad face*
I loved those games too,willams electronics made some of the best ,,, remember robotron ,,,, I used to actually win prize money at arcade tournaments on that game.
If you're still gaming after 12 years old you have a problems. Luckily for me my aging process has stopped at age of 11 for past forty something years but, downside is I have to lie about my age when purchasing Battlefield games.
41 here. 1.68 infantry kd. Highest I've ever had in a cod, halo, or bf title. Just play smarter. I stick with medic and scout. Play a little farther out from all the hecticness. I play agro scout and am usually top 10 in operations or top 3 in tdm. I also usually down half a fifth a whiskey when I play, so reaction time is a little overated. Just play smart.
61 and still having fun my reflexes are not as fast as they used to be but I do enjoy jumping into the thick of it as a assault player or support but really suck as medic for some reason.
I'm 53 and do quite all right even if I do say so myself. Weight for age champion. LMFGU at youth who send me hate and I reply with "I'm 53, you're just bad"
No intention of "retiring" ever. What I lost in twitch (and it's the first thing that goes - you're next) I gain in cunning. Will still be killing the dumb teenagers of Battlefield till the day I die.
Age limit? Why would there be an age limit? I'm mid 30's too and I never plan on not being a gamer. Plus Bf is so open, you can easily find a play style that lets you stay in the game.
The only thing that hurts my kd/spm right now is having to go afk to wipe a gremlin's butt or stop them from juggling butcher knifes while standing on top of the kitchen table. That or that dreaded work thing.
sure billy. Now im tired of the newbies camping and not going after objectives. I do not understand why most players will not talk on the mic. You hear coughing, and can you hear me once so often. Where are all these older players...... I want to have grown up talk. lol

Of course, I guess I could draw the line when Arthritis, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or any combination of the two starts setting in.

In any case, I'll be playing as long as I can grip a mouse in my hand
