    I know I will never stop playing games. I will likely play them less, but I love them too much to stop. After being this invovled in a community, it would be like leaving my 2nd family <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    my earliest childhood memory (4 or so) was PITFALL. And hopefully, I'll be gaming till the day I die.

    There is no "to old" for video games. I look forward to joining the senior gaming league when my time comes :P

    Stop playing video games...?

    I think I'll have to agree with Comprox, never stop, just play less.

    Ya know at one time I too thought that I would never stop playing vids, but Im beginning to have second thoughts on that. Ive been playing online for a long time and Im tired of dealing with idiots day in and day out. No matter what game, no matter what server, its always the same. Ive lost hope. =( Mebbe I wont ever stop playing games but Im seriously thinking about not playing online anymore. To much of a hassle. When I play some football, b-ball or whatever with friends in rl we never treat each other the way ppl over the net do. I just keep crashing my head into the wall that is "Never expect ppl on the net to treat you with the same courtesy, respect and kindness that ppl treat you with in real life." No matter how many times I crash into that wall I still think I can find a good game. Im tired of crashing into that wall. Looking for a good game is like looking for El Dorado.


    age -- 36
    time spent online playing -- 5-6 years

    two points:

    I have been beaten in games by kids, and I have been beaten by an over 60 once. Your age is not relevent

    Also, if you consider age important, remember, your only as old as the woman you feel <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You should visit our servers then Teufel . We are a bunch of older guys and we dont put up with most of the younger kids crap. I have found some very respectable 20 - 26 year olds to play with. That is what lured me into NS. Was the thought that maybe a more mature crowd might take intrest and the less desireable crowd would go back to CS. Bottom line is we are polite and curtious and we try to keep our server that way. Drop me a PM if your intrested. Glad Im not the only old guy out here.

    I'm 18, so what I'll say now possibly qualifies as my personal "We'll rock on and on and ... on", but right now, I doubt I'll ever stop playing games, just as I'll never stop reading or watching movies.

    Yes, the kinds of games I play may change, but that doesn't change my will to play.

    well I doubt I will ever stop playing games, but eventually I'll start making them.

    Hmm, I'm doing software design and 3D design at school. I also want to make, and not just play games <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    But hey, I don't think that may people from the latest generation of kids will ever give up on playing games, it is just about the only fun thing left to do that isn't illigal or likely to cause illigal happenings.
