:) I love it... every now and then I get a reminder just how darn old I'm getting. Rusted, creaky, sometimes cranky... but still, I play my video games. I found it interesting that the poll gave age 13 or older as the maximum for playing their first game, but limited it by adding, "I was a teenager before I played my first game." Well, I was certainly older than a teenager! I was 23, living in Southern California. I was married, with a baby boy. At work, a flat top "Pong" table was brought in, and it sure sucked up a lot of quarters. Over the years I was a regular at the arcades until 1986, when as punishment for theft, my wife called me (we were divorced) and had me take my son's Nintendo deck away. Of course I hooked it up at my place, and was so into Metroid that I didn't want to give it back. I eventually bought my own, then various other consoles. I still use my PS-3 and keep a PS-2 hooked up. No PS-4 yet because this old goat is on limited income. Maybe soon. Darn, when did I turn 65?? I will keep on playing until they pull that wireless controller out of my cold, dead hands!
