Old(er) ppl playing Prey - Page 3

Gatinater · 07-21-2006, 07:41 PM

I'm 25 and just about lost all intrest. The original Command & conquer,Duke Nukem 3D, Deus Ex and Half-Life are the only PC games I have enjoyed. After those it all felt like the same shit over and over again.

I don't know how you guys keep doing is an still enjoy it but atleast someone is.

Phal · 07-21-2006, 07:50 PM

33 year young. Played Temple of Doom on a TI/99 4A.

doubleR · 07-21-2006, 08:01 PM

I feel the same way about sex. Tried it with 3 different women and found it was the same shit over and over again. (5 minutes of pleasure and hours of her yapping)...

I am 31 in october, started on a Spectrum 48k when I was 9, been playing games ever since, and will never stop (until my eyesight goes).

Ronstar · 07-22-2006, 09:00 AM

I'm 24 now and happy to see that game came to life at last..., I wanted to play it from the 1st time I heard about it (back in the 90s)

My 1st game was Wolfenstein3D back then when I was 12 *lol*

My first games were "Gridlock", "Fort Apocalype" and "Elite" for the C-64, back when I was... crap... when I was 9. 1985. Damn, I'm old.

39 here. The amount I play has been on a steady decline since my firstborn came along almost 6 years ago. I still keep one foot in the "community door" and while I play less, I enjoy it more...

hiob · 07-22-2006, 09:51 AM

As preexisting gamers grow older, the number of mid-aged gamers can only be going up.

Not exactly the same, because your video games have a volume and even an off button.

I guess the decline of middle aged gamers is because they played since they were young and just played too many. I have become tired of the same stuff again and again. It's like watching reruns or the same movie again and again. We want to see something new, not live in the past.

Telee · 07-22-2006, 06:52 PM

13. I've played the demo for Prey, but not the game.

skitzo · 07-22-2006, 07:54 PM

39 here ... and many more my age and older in team www.zs-clan.com .. all you old bas...rds... ..maybe we can hook up on team speak and share our stories of bad hips,,,,legs going numb....wife threatening to leave.... maybe even play a laggy ..game of prey.etc...

my x-fire = oztiks96

Motown5150 · 07-23-2006, 12:25 AM

38 here and still pretty much play something everyday/night over XBox Live. Enjoyed SP portion of Prey very much and really like the old school feel of the MP.

Jiminator · 07-24-2006, 02:40 AM

41, really enjoy the game.

Antosa · 07-24-2006, 02:53 AM

I am 35 years old and I finished Prey

but I do not have girlfriend

Malgon · 07-24-2006, 07:14 AM

23 for me

I'm surprised at D_A being 24 and Gatinater being 25, they both came across as being older to me for some reason. Plenty of actual older dudes in here though.

07-24-2006, 07:53 AM

31, married with children. my son is 5 and can now play fps pretty good..co.op rocks on the 360...

07-24-2006, 08:44 AM

yeah i know, sry bout that, i ment playing fps in general...

07-24-2006, 09:32 AM

Not trying to question your general arenting skills, but most First Person Shooters are hardly appropriate for a 5 year old!

You seem to underestimate or have forgotten how much of an impact something like that can have on a kid.

Joe Siegler · 07-24-2006, 01:11 PM

Guys, we're getting off topic with a lot of stuff here. Stick to the proper subject, PLEASE.

Nspecter · 07-24-2006, 02:15 PM

I'm 24 going on 42!!!! I own my own place in SoCal Baby!!! I have a wife and daughter along with a car and truck payment. I'm just saying, I'm pround of myself and fam thats all...

I thing the mid 20's is the perfect age for gamers. Cause we were all @ 5-9 years old when Nintendo came out and gaming stuck with us. Now the games are better and harder.... LOVE IT!!!!!

Zixinus · 07-24-2006, 03:25 PM

15 and been playing video games of whatever I can get my hands on since I was 6.

36, first game wa 10 pin bowling on the Sinclair ZX81, first online game was Q1.

Oh, and there's no redeeming features about being older - being 20 ruled ;-)

bummerman · 07-24-2006, 07:09 PM

bought comp 5 yrs ago cause daughter needed it for school. Got hooked on gaming when I played the 1st Harry Potter game to entise my daughter. !st serious online gaming was Doom 3 and I'm 57

we mainly play hide and seek in death match mode. the hand eye cordination will be far supier in this coming generation then ever before. doctors and fly by wire pilots will grow from the console gameing pad, like we are seeing. but your are right about having a young child playing shoot em ups over and over can and prolly does desensities violent behavior. this is taken into consideration and your concern is noted.

Don't worry.. girlfriends are overrated. Though without a woman one cannot pass on ones seed. Five visits a week to the jerk clinic will ensure that. You may never see the bastard but there's a plus there.. you will never be bothered with having to raise the kid.

I no longer have a woman and never had a woman that wanted a serious relationship with me. Largely because I'm not rich and I'm picky. I don't have money but I chase after the top shelf women and I treat the others like dogs. I'm an *******, I guess.

Plus I think I sexed myself all out.

Once you must put up with a four hour sessions of complaining which you can't fix because she just doesn't want to shut the **** up and won't go away.. you won't say.

"I have no girlfriend

" you wil say "I have no girlfriend.

07-25-2006, 01:55 AM

I'm 67+ and have been into shooters since Wolf3D came out on floppy. I like them all. right now besides Prey I'm into Q4.

hiob · 07-25-2006, 06:02 AM

now that is hardcore gaming o/\o
