You're never too old for gaming, but I imagine I'll stop playing FPSs online when I'm 50yrs old or so.
The twitch reflexes just won't be there anymore :P

lol have you ever seen an old person. They shake like crazy, if anything that should make them better at fps games. I know ill still be gaming when I'm old.:P
My friend's Uncle tried to play Halo once. It was a disaster. While playing, his Uncle shouts "How do I hit with my gun?" My friend says "Press the B button!" 'Which one is the B button?' 'The red one!' Which one is the red one?" Yeah, it didn't go well. I guess you are too old for video games when you don't know your colors. But I think you are too old for anything at that point. No offense to the veterans on this site.tylergamereviewso its his fault the button placement and names on the xbox controller are not intuitive?
i'm 35, fortunately for me my 10 year old son can't beat me yet, but i know the day will come very soon, i don't think we are too old for gaming, i just think we should just forget about being competative and just enjoy games for ourselves, regardless of how many times w get pwnd by our own children.Just the other day my son snatched my m/kb from me when he sat and watched me die 4 times in the same place on Dead Space. With a little too much ease and just one try he past the point i kept failing on.
He is 11. This isn't the first time something like this has happened. A few years ago i had to lower my skill level on most games to give him a chance when we play vs. Now he shouts my 14 yr old daughter as she is more of a challenge than me. My wife finds it very funny, i on the other hand do not lol.
Just wondered if any other older gamers have had similar experiences? I'm 31 btw and my 5 yr old regularly beats me on wii games lol.
