Glad to see that someone still games in their 30s. I was thinking that I will have to give up gaming when I hit my 30s.

no one believed when I said I am 31 :razz:

BTW.. I didn't find it too difficult to spend time on games. I usually play 2-3 hrs max if I am in a good run (online) .. For SP, I usually make sure I pick it up only during weekends.

Actually I didn't mention you. I am so glad to hear that you game at 31. However I am sure I will continue as long as I live :p
What I meant is, there are some users here (nowadays a lot!), kids basically, who don't actually play the game but they like to spam the topic, and be proud of themselves. Really embarrassing :(

I am 28 and still gaming. Recently started buying games from Steam. :)lol:)

You don't have to give up gaming if you plan everything and manage things properly.

I started serious pc gaming at 19, got my first pc when I was 15, but it was only when I entered college that I started playing multiplayer games.It's been non stop since then.

Outside India there isn't an age at which people stop gaming.They continue gaming even in their fifties.

BTW.. my manager from my previous company was 40+ gamer and his son 10-11 yrs was also one :p . sad part is that he allowed his son to play GTA but under his supervision. When I said it does contain lot of profanity, he said yes, I know, "my son keeps asking what the meaning, I will say I would explain later". He assured me that he does supervise when he player games.

I am 33+ and married and expecting a kid...and still playing Video Games...it is all about how can you manage your time while taking responsibilities...such as
Work Life and meeting deadline; going to market for Grocery or going to movie; have some time to read or write etc; It's not that hard...only your 'GAMETIME' will reduce from 10-12 hours per day to 1 or 2 hours per day...and if you can manage to play few games on your sparetime in the office...that's great...

Legal drinking age in Orissa is 21.

there are 49 voters, maybe 100 ppl play games here, so at this rate unless tdf adds the steam gaming community... the discussion from now on will be off topic

No, you cannot legally consume alcohol at age of 18.

under 18s dont usually have jobs and nor a bank account.. so unless you are the son of an ethical nigerian drug runner in india, i dont understand why you would need to pay taxes.

Interesting to see i have my age group players and even above my age as well :p

BTW, I am 29 and a late entrant to mainstream gaming.. That doesnt mean i havent played Marios and Contras during its age. But the high end gaming started only with Max Payne. I was a pc gamer for all these years after first playing Maxpayne and a very late entrant to consoles with controllers (leave alone the early day consoles with catridges) and am trying to figure out controllers just yet :p (bought PS3 (my first mainstream console) few weeks back).

Having said that, I have no plans to leave out PC gaming or to retire from gaming any soon. The time on it might decrease with increased responsibilities (ofcourse I am married) going forward, but it may not stop so soon coz of my interest and the only hobby of gaming.
