Just wondering. If you're over 25, is playing xbox 360 starting to get a bit weird and juvenile? How about when you're in your 30's, is it starting to get into creepy pedo living with his mom territory?
I am tempted to buy a games machine but am wondering if there is an age where it just ain't right to be blowing up locusts and mowing down cops.

men remain kids, whether its computer games or throwing bombs on civilian targets and driving fast cars.
-
I"m not a gamer at all, but my friends and coworkers are and they're all in their 30s....nothin wrong with it at all. I know lots of couples that are buying game systems for themselves and parents that buy them and play with or without their kids.

Difficult question... ??? XBox-ing is much saver than squatting on a Swiss ball but also less cool than that.

Screw what everyone else thinks. I know people who have as many toys as the 40 year old virgin and pull more ass then Mystery. You can't give a shit what anyone else thinks. You think myself or anyone on this site would be bodybuilding if we were all afraid people would think we are gay? You just keep it private and if anyone asks just avoid the topic.

I still occasionally play the arcade games I grew up with. The Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator (MAME and MacMAME) allows you to recreate any of the old arcade games on your computer. The ones I play most often are Robotron 2084, Defender, Crazy Climber, Joust, Dig Dug, and Donkey Kong Jr. I have about 20 MAME ROMS installed but have more than 100 more on a disk some where.
I have no interest in X Box, PlayStation, or GameCube/Wii.

i like the "oldschool" idea of mame but face the truth: those games are shit
-
I dont see a problem if its not compromising your social/work life
You must be pretty insecure if u dont play games because ur scared of what others think of u

i read the average gamer is 28

Life... it's a big game... So what does it matter if you're playing with women, your dick or on your Xbox?

No more weirder than mothers dressing like their daughters, and going to the clubs with them. No more weirder than parents being their kids "friends"....
In fact men in their 40's still play and buy games...It's the online gaming shit that is weird for grown men to play...Imagine some 40 yr old dude play World of Warcraft (or what eva it's called) against some 19 yr old dude in Korea.
-
i haven't owned a PS2 or nintendo in years... i miss it.

The only people who may think "its weird or juvenile" would be married women and people who SUCK at video games. If it was an original Atari or something maybe I could see a point but games have come a loooooooong way since then and most a catered to adults now.
-
I still play and I'm getting up there. Unreal Tournament is probably my favorite first person shooter.
-
i love video games, fuck that.
-
i got a ps3 but i dont play it id rather have an xbox cuz the only game i like to play is halo
-
I think it depends on how much time you spend...for example if you are a coked up 8th grade teacher playing WoW, as Method told me that who plays it, you might need some help. If you just pop in Madden, or something to blow off some steam who cares....people need hobbies.
-
Nothing wrong with the odd video game in my book - I'm busy making my way through Far Cry 2 at the moment.

haha, that's definitely when it gets dodgy as hell.

I have an addictive personality when it comes to video games. I once lost like an entire two months to Age of Empires. I'd like to game again but I'm not sure I can trust myself.

This is like asking me, "at what age should one stop masturbating?" Why should you?
I'm in my 30's, and I still jerk off and play video games. I grew up doing both, so it only makes sense that I will continue to do so. For the generation before us, there were no video games, so to them its childish.
Sadly, I can't devote the time I once did to jerking off, or playing games....

WHAT? What happened? You used to play Grand Theft Auto just a couple of years back, right?

When you´re growing up, you think so many things are going to change when you are "grown up", but when you are, you realise that nothing has changed, you...are the same you, and it´s the same as it ever was. :-\

Yeah, I guess so, to some degree. Except for now you've got the weight of the world on your back/shoulders, and endless stream of bills, and hair in your nose and ears..... :-\

Anyone have an opinion on the xbox or ps3? From what I understand the ps3 has better hardware but it rarely actually makes better games.
I am not into the online gaming thing.
-
my uncle plays with his kids, is over 55. i stopped after 19-20 or so...just dont have the interest in gaming, have purchased computer games but throw them away after one day. i guess it is individual.
cant see myself purchasing a ps3 for $400 even w/the blu-ray, dont watch movies at home enough.

Don't know what's weird about it. The reason why there were hardly any adults playing video games up to date is that we are basically the first generation who grew up on video games. Adults don't start picking up habits from the youth, so who hasn't played video games as a child or teenager probably won't start with it in his 40s.
But when you grew up on them, I don't see any reason to stop playing them, as long as I enjoy it.
-
If you like playing them ..... Why stop?

Hypothetically, who would you assume is the more proficient World of Warcraft warrior, Ronnie Coleman or Dorian Yates?

Stopped playing video games when I was 12.

NO.

At age 3.

Revenues for video games surpassed revenue from movies several years back.
An equally relevant question is "at what age is it not cool for a guy watch movies?"
At age 19 you should no longer watch movies. ::)
-
12. if you dont stop by then you're a loser.
We all can't show our masculinity through our finger painting like you Jimmy ::)

A better question would be :" When can I find time to play games when you are over 25?" In my case not too much. Maximum 2 hours in a week. And when you spend 10 hours a day before a computer for your job the videogames lose much of its appeal.

A VP in my company who has over 100 people in his department told me Friday he couldn't wait to get home because his family was out and he was having friends over to drink beer and play video games.
It's a generational thing.
Games have come so far that even if you ignore gameplay, the stories, character development, humor, music and overall production rival, and even surpass, those of movies and television shows. It's just another personal form of entertainment.

Yep. Except I'm a couple of years older.
All my friends play, as well as our wives/girlfriends.

Regardless of what you do, it's best to be well balanced. Also, taking pride in yourself to make yourself a better person or the type of person you want to be is all that matters, not what others think. If someone has a problem with something that you do, it's their problem, not yours.
With all that said, for me personally, my three primary passions are my wife and kids, videogames and computers, and working out. I don't expect any of that to ever change no matter how old I get.

That is true. It's funny how defensive they got...nobody cares if they want to play video games, at least it keeps them out of the gym...

I think its fine to play video games no matter what age you are, there are plenty of games with mature storylines which require logical thinking to complete, somthing most people lack in this thread.
Mr.Olympia plays Madden Football btw. :D

Gaming is a great way to relax cause there is very little physical exertion. It also helps improve co-ordination. Consoles and games are designed and built for mainly grown ups (teenagers upwards) as opposed to toys for kids. Not everyone's cup of tea, but if you are into it, it's a great way to blow off some steam whether you play a single player campaign or against others online. Like someone said, it's no different than watching movies or playing golf or whatever.

Could be worse,Imagine using a screen name after a comic strip ::)
