Sorry pal!

I remember playing Halo in my early 20's, and chatting with a guy from LA who was 34. Wow, he's so old, why was he still playing video games.

Here I sit in my late 30's...still playing games when I have time, denying that I'm old, despite the noises I make getting up and random aches and pains.

OK. I am definitely old...

- I have mostly no joy playing video games anymore these days.

- I found myself refusing some contemporary stuff in favour of stuff "I am used to".

Damn! I was always looking at my dad, not understanding that very same things :) Now I am a dad myself...

Haha same. I think the problem is that it seems to hit you all at once. I was pretty open minded and go with the flow until at least my early 30s, now I hate any kind of change at all.

Re: video games, I had a similar experience but play for different reasons. I used to have fun blasting people and chatting on xbox live... don't enjoy any of that anymore. All single player for me, and no FPS. A cool physics game like Rocket League(admittedly, not single player), or a puzzle game like The Turing Test, or a mystery game like Kona are way more interesting to me than say, Call of Duty.
