No, but I won't prioritise gaming over real life. If I have a family and a job that keeps me busy a lot I probably won't be having much spare time anyways.
Much laughs were had at this : )Jason Rayes said: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.
I picked the hearing aid option, because I assume that one is the option that indicates "I am already old and still a gamer".Jason Rayes said:So what do you think, will you give up video games and take up lawn bowls and knitting when you start getting grey hair?
But I doubt all of that will be true when you are 70 or 80, which is what my friend was referring to.Carnagath said:once I start working as a lawyer full time I can definitely see myself playing less, since the hours are very long and it is an extremely stressful job.
This is much the same for me, its as much an interest in the technology as what it produces. The two are linked. I was in my early teens when PC's first started becoming available for the home rather than science labs somewhere, my first computer was a commodore 64 and my friends thought it was awesome that I had one. Now virtually every home has a computer. My first console was an Atari 2600, If I could go back in time and show me then what consoles today can do, I'd have given myself a heart attack (Not to mention causing a paradox that would destroy time and space). I remember gathering around at a friends on the weekend, he was the only person I knew with a modem, a 2400 baud device that was state of the art at the time. We would spend a good 20 minutes hooking up to a crappy BBS and think it was awesome, at this stage just getting this far didn't so much require a manual as a grimoire. Now the internet is so user-friendly my grandmother uses it.DrunkOnEstus said:Ever since I was little, and I mean very little, I've loved the progress of technology, particularly with video game consoles.
