Poll: I think I am OFICIALLY an OLD PERSON

[TheRealCJ]

Challenge Accepted.

Just give me your freind code and I'll sign in and find yo-OH GOD THIS THING DOESN'T HAVE AN ETHERNET PORT.

Okay... okay... calm down, I'm sure nintendo thought of this... I'll just try to find the wi-fi swti-OH GOD THERE'S NOT WI-FI SWITCH.

How the HELL am I supposed to scream at people over the net with no- OH DEAR CHRIST THERE'S NOT HEADSET JACK ON THE CONTROLLER... WHICH IS WIRED.

*breakdown*

Well, then I'm one of the old people who sits around on a hover-chair and has all his robots do the work. I was around for this stuff, but I look forward to the future more.

I'm glad that I am now part of the minority of gamers who know what to do when an N64 cartridge isn't working. Whenever I try that method on the DS games, I get weird looks.

Short of licking the contacts, I don't think that's going to work.

i came to this realization when i started talking about Slinky's to middle schoolers and they had no idea what i was talking about. my damn slinky would never go down the stairs completely it would go down one then roll the rest of the way

Mine got straightened out and I tried to re-bend it and when I tried to send it down some stairs it fell over and caught fire. Then I cried.

My little cousin was once AMAZED that there was such as thing as a 'Playstation 1'.

It took me several minutes and an improvised puppet show before he was consider the signifigance of the name 'Playstation TWO'

Me thinks the kids have it too easy these days. Particularly with the new fighting games. Mashing any 3 buttons will guarantee at least a 10 hit combo. for that maybe too many are being used, (just the two upper trigger buttons) Killer Instinct. Fantastic, MK3... Pain in the arse, and tell me that none of you have tried memorizing that combo to make Reptile disappear; But Dammit all if it wasn't worth pulling it off once while you're opponent isn't blasting, freezing, slicing you like deli ham.

btw. I'm 26.

 

[kuposenpai]

I'm old enough to still remember the Sailor Moon Series and games. Poor Pluto... She took it hard when the other sailor scouts gave her the talk.

Being old is when you open your window and yell "SHUT UP, YA DAMN KIDS N' YOUR MUSIC!" out the window on a Friday night.

Nah, you're not old. An older generation of gamer perhaps (I am as well). But not old in general. I'm only 21 and I swear my eye twitches whenever I encounter a gamer who doesn't appreciate some of the older games simply because they aren't as 'pretty' graphic-wise as some of today's games. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go play the Legend of Zelda and relive my childhood.

Nah dawg, it be all 'bout tha bling bling. I get all up in my GTA and then its all RATTATTAT and then its HOE time. Yea.

2legit.

btw. I'm 26.

Welcome to the escapist.

You are not an old man. There are three kinds of people.

The old people complaining that video games suck and that on their time they had to settle with playing soccer and such.

The brats who don't understand a thing about video games and thinks that quality is a matter of how young the product is.

Then there's us, the only people who actually understand the essence of gaming. We are the middle-men, and until we die, we shall call both old and young people ignorant for not seeing how awesome video games are!

Although just to be safe, check your mirror for gray hair.

i'm only 13 and i would say im the 3rd through and through
my first word was "f-zero"

Don't forget to blame GTA for giving you the idea!

 

[Caliostro]

These kids weren't dumb,

They couldn't figure out how to use a controller without analogues and with clearly marked directional arrows and buttons... I'm having some trouble accepting they were particularly bright.
