Ofcorse I will be!

I am NOT the knitting kind of person, and VR will be the new R by that point, so I can be in as youthful of a body as I please!

pretty much, once a gamer, your usually one for life

maybe that's just me, then again gaming can hopefully only get better when i'm 70

I'd say around 21 I'll start to slowly become a causal gamer, then I'll eventually give it up. Then hen my kids are born, I'll show them a few computer games to see if they like it, not force them, just see if they like it.

Oh yes definitely, it would be kind of hard to play video games with the whole zombie apocalypse thing though wouldn't it?

If George Romero and Stan Lee can still love zombie movies and comics as much as they did 50 years ago, any true gamer will still love games well into old age.

Kinda hoping I'll be dead by 64. I view it as a preferable alternative to my body failing me.

Seriously, I'm terrified of getting old for that reason.

The only reason why people who are 64 now don't play video games is because they didn't grow up with it. But we did, so we probably will.

I bloody well hope so, because I have more than enough games to last me till then (and beyond) even if I played all day everyday for the next 30 odd years.

I'd like to think so, mmm I can picture it now.

["Take that you little pecker head, I was fragging and teabagging before your parents were born"]

Course this is assuming I'd just do the right old guy and strive to make life miserable for the younger generation.

I think the time one dedicates to gaming will decrease with age, job, responsibility, family, etc..etc..

I don't know how long I'll be keeping my gaming gear up, probably for the next three years till I hit 25. Then stop or reduce dramatically. The appeal of games will only last for so long. I don't even know about gaming at 64.
It makes me sad to know that some day my passion may inevitably stop..
