Don't feel bad about that, that just means that you got to play a game before it was squeezed of every drop of fun to the point of the companies just remaking the old games to try and get more money.e2density said:
The other day I went to see the toy story double feature (One and two, back to back in 3d. I almost shat myself when I heard about it) and there were so many young kids which reminded me of the reason I came to see it (Because I was a young kid with Toy Story).
I didn't feel old necessarily (I'm immune from that being 14) but I just realized how long ago all that is now.
Though just for the record I thoroughly enjoyed the feature and if you liked the toy story films or even if you've been yearning for a real day out at the movies since the grindhouse double feature then I heartily recommend it.

Yeah I was 6 (or five, I'm drunk) and I got a Nintendo for christmas
(christmas gets spell-checked?)
I've got a friend two months older than me and he's dating a girl almost 20, basically ANY time I mention anything from my childhood to her makes me feel old.

Happy birthday yourself!DMonkey said:
And yes, your father being right about a lot of things can be a bummer. Especially when the birthday card he sends you contains a picture of him posing in nothing but a pair of shorts and the comment 'You'll look like this in 30 years time.'
Could be worse. I turned 31 today.garbutt said:
And I found a grey pube. Who even knew that your pubes go grey? Oh sure it looks awesome when George Clooney has sexy silver bits in his hair. But pubes? WTF?
Oh and happy birthday.
I was born two weeks before the Atari 5200 was released.
I have played video games all of my life.
I was around before Metallica recorded their first album.
I remember talking to my brother and thinking how cool it would be if there were a second Final Fantasy game, or if Nintendo released a super system.
I remember playing Star Wars on my Uncle's Commodore 64.
I remember Michael Jackson's Bad on 38 LP.
I know what a 38 LP is.
I remember getting my first walkman and being totally stoked about how cool it was.
I remember getting my very first CD - Gowan's Strange Animal.
I remember getting my first portable CD player and having to make sure it was as dead-steady as possible so the CDs wouldn't skip.
I remember when games weren't the cause of all violence. Heavy Metal was.
I remember when Iron Maiden, Ronnie James Dio and Ozzy Osbourne were as metal as you could possibly hope to be.
That is how old I am.
Now you kids get off my damned lawn.

I feel old when I need to remind my 13-14 year old nephew and niece that the cool shit they find online is stuff I've seen when I was THEIR age...
That and I have to tell my niece (who's the biggest fan of zelda games ever..) That 2d zelda games weren't optional back in my era. LOL
Mouse Trap for Coleco Vision anyone? ((Probably spelled Coleco wrong, but I just can't remember how to spell it, and nothing came up on google for it, now I REALLY feel old!!!))

[HEADING=2]THE MILLENNIUM WAS 10 FECKING YEARS AGO![/HEADING]
I mean GOOD GOD! I was born in another Millennium, for cripe's sake! That's just WEIRD
Also, I remember when Gameboys with COLOUR were revolutionary. That and the fact I was born in the age of Sonic Being Good
brrr...
However, I have been perpetually 40 years old in my mind since I was wee, so I see aging as slowly attaining my destiny
