I've never played a video game since 1990. I have a playstation in my home office that I won at a Christmas party that I've kinda used for Blu Ray but I tossed the games and controllers.

I don't feel like I'm missing out by not playing video games.

I dont have the time like I used to now that I've got a family, but I still like playing college football and the Call of Duty games.

I can see how making time to play at the expense of your family shouldnt happen, but if everyone's got something to do or in bed there is nothing wrong with killing terrorits for an hour or so.

I don't see why people think video games are a kids thing. They are just another form of entertainment. You wouldn't say after 30 you should stop watching tv, watching movies, playing golf...hell whatever you like to do in your free time. Video games may have originally been targeted at kids, but I believe that as the generation that grew up with them gets older video games will just become a thing people do and not have this idea of being a kids thing. And you people who say you don't have time for video games because you're too old, I'm sure you make time for other things you enjoy.

I played Atari and Intellivision nonstop when I was a kid. Didn't play any video games for 20 years. About a year ago I bought a PS3 and a few games but just couldn't get into any of them, ended up just watching bluray and streaming Netflix on it.

I totally agree. I've been saying the same thing.
Older people when we were kids didn't play video games because they didn't have them when they were little. We did. It's known as a "kid thing" because back in the day, it was only kids playing it. NOT ANYMORE.

If I have a great job, pay my bills, take care of my family, coach football, satisfy the wife and show her attention, why can't I play some video games after I put her *** to sleep? :D

Those things were banned at my junior high, subject to being confiscated until the end of the school year or a parent showed up to claim it. Then Mattel put a mute switch on it, as I recall. Seems dumb. They had to be selling more when the familiar beep-boop sound kept getting them confiscated.

Video games, wizard/space/superhero movies, and fantasy football all fall into categories of things I won't do, but I don't begrudge those who do. Just not my thing.

I won't buy my kids a video game system although my 14 year old begs for it. Hell, with texting and the internet, people already don't spend enough real time with each other. I make him have friends over just to hang, visit and...actually TALK!!!

I was unbeatable on the football game...I could eat up an entire period with one series before scoring...

Galaga was my favorite game...stay out of the corners...I couldn't walk by one without stuffing in a quarter...

Doom 2 was also one I played till I got blisters on my fingers...

Still play on x box...mostly racing games and 1st person shooters...

the jedi exiles used sith alchemy to interbreed with the sith which created the sith race. by the time sidious had killed his master, they were long dead, but the fact still remains that a red skinned zabrak looks more like a true sith than any human.
