Im 15. Started playing a year ago. I like being younger than most people and kicking some ass. My dad is 40-something and I hella outranked him even though he used to play more than me. The oldest player 122 years old and his mind is hooked-up in the computer. Hes hella good.

30, turning 31 in a few weeks.

<soapbox>
I'll hate getting older though.  Apparently there is an arbitrary cut off date after which you shouldn't play video games, at least according to a few comments.

Seriously though, what is this magical point?  30,40, 50, 51?  Does it count if the wife and I don't plan to have kids?  I may not have 1000s of hours to throw away on a video game, but I'm still entitled to have fun damnit...no matter the age.  If you don't like it, tough.  Oh, and stay off my lawn! </soapbox>

Seeing some of the ages here actually explains a lot of the attitudes that can be seen in these forums....especially the political threads!  I'm not knocking anyone for an opinion, but there are some very much holier-than-thou type attitudes that are even funnier now that I know they come from children.

I'm 27.  And as far as I'm concerned...when it comes to a game as good as BF2, age ain't nothin' but another stat.

Play on playa'...you know, like the kids say.

21, but then anyone younger than 20 isn't a true gamer as they didnt live the FFVII era.

No doubt someones going to mention DOOM now...

I can kinda see what you're saying.  At 20, a person barely caught the Playstation at release (1994 IIRC, I was in college then, so my memory is a bit fuzzy).  At 8, you just don't look at games the way you do once you hit your teens.  They missed playing the early consoles with a mature enough mindset to take something away from it.  They missed the heyday of arcades (where true gamers got there start).  Hell, I almost missed it at 31 years.   Thankfully, I lived down the street from an arcade ran by friends of the family (free gaming!), so I got an early start.

About missing the PS thing... I'm not saying that's a bad thing, because Sony really killed off the entire 2D gaming style.  3D isn't better just because 3>2.  That's a rant for another day though.

I was playing Pong while some of you guys were only a glint in your Momma's eye!  BTW, Pong was perhaps the first commercial video game....  (crica 1975)  *Cough* 

I started playing BF2 on April 1 2006.  To date I have almost 26000 hours and am first sargeant...have plenty of pixel ribbons and shiney badges too.  hahahah  I miss Duke Nukem !!  "Come Get Some"

You think I am too old to play?  Bring it....  With my $10 keyboard and $12 mouse I can die as good as Firestorm and any 1337 player !  ROFL
