I recently had an argument with a friend where I completely disagreed with his opinion. He was convinced that after a certain point you have to give up video games, as he put it "When you get old a switch goes off in your head and you just change, you want to do gardening and lawn bowls and things like that. Trust me, you won't want it to happen but it will happen". Apart from thinking he was an idiot, my counter argument was as follows. There was no magic switch that went off in their heads, an 80 year old pottering in their garden grew up in a time, not only before video games, but before television. If they wanted electronic entertainment they had the radio. They don't have the history of the current generation who have grown up with technology as a part of their everyday lives.
I for one intend to game until my hands are too arthritic. By which time I hope we can control games with the power of our minds. Which may suck if I'm senile.
So what do you think, will you give up video games and take up lawn bowls and knitting when you start getting grey hair?
