At what age playing video games becomes an embarrassment?

[Khalil's_Black_Excellence]

damn bruh thats still alotta gaming. but med personally im NEVER gonna stop gaming. its something i grew up with and i still enjoy it. dont do it nearly as much tho. (maybe 3-4 games per year)

Actually, 3 hours a day isn't really all that much in the grand scheme of things. Most people watch tv, surf the web or chit-chat on their phones just as long or longer every day. True enough, the latter two can be done towards something "productive", but be real, for most folks it don't be and ya'll muthafukkas know this.

You know you don't want to be killing ice wolfs in Skyrim.

At 23 I am thinking past like 27 playing hardcore games can't be good for your life.

Video games came into prominence when my generation was young. I'm almost 30 now. It's not that it becomes embarrassing to play video games as you get older its that you look at older people who don't play them because they came into their own when these people were already old.

Many older people don't wanna use cell phones or computers either. When my generation gets older you'll see one of the first generations that grew up with games as seniors. We will probably still game.

To me saying when are you to old to game is like saying when are you too old to watch movies or listen to music. Games are just another form of media.

Video games is part of my generation......I'm playing till I die....but I'm not gonna lie the older I get the less time I have for games

The average gamer is over 30

..."stanning" a video game console/company/developer/publisher/series has, is and always will be

Good thoughts and answers in this thread..i was hittin fps hard past several years as well as some other games but after my daughter was born it did cut down big time. Im working more and i just dont have the time to invest in games. My interest has declined big time too..i play an hour a week if im lucky.

I still have a homie whos unemployed, playing video games literally all day. That i cannot respect but its his life.

I'm 24 and play my Xbox Daily,never seen it as a problem,I get on once u gotten off of work and dimming home from gym,but ill agree,it can consume you and get in the way of you doing shyt,if you let it

 

[Black Magisterialness]

playing games is never embarassing...if anything its just as much a hobby as shyt like fishing and guys who work on their cars. It's just acceptable now...


my pops plays video games regularly and he's like 56. And it was never odd to me.

"Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."

One of my tenants is 55 yr old and is avid videogamer. We chop it up all the time on subject of video games...and he's NEVER late with the rent.

This thread will be full of excuses


If your over 25 and still putting in hours a week on video games ur a phaggot. If ur 30 then ur pathetic.

Video gaming as an adult shows ur simple minded and boring.

If you're over 25 and try to convince posters on a message board that doing a little coke is fine but playing video games is a negative, then you're a fukking loser.

people should do what they want for entertainment, if you enjoy playing videogames, why would you stop doing you like doing, that would be kind of making yourself unhappy.

now if your just sitting in the basement playing games and nothing else, then that's a problem.

But I find it in today's society, people have to look down on things to make their own lives seem fulfilled, any people living a full life would careless who would played videogames and who didn't.

It's only the bitter motherfukkers who gotta rain somebody elses parade to make themselves fill better about what they got going on
