The meet and greet sounds like fun.  I'm about two hours away from Columbus in Ky.

I've been playing ever since the NES was introduced.... I am 31

For the first time in my life I feel young posting on a forum. I'm 40 year old Dad, with two kids. I just love gaming. I'm totally useless but I think it's a great way to relax.

Hey there my wife and I, 38 and 37 respectively, share this gamer tag. Our son isn’t playing yet; he’s two years old.

 

I started my gaming career on a TSR-80 (read: in the late 70’s … the Nineteen Seventies); “Dungeons of Daggorath” was pretty Awesome! And I have passed on my long time lingering addiction to my family, and they (hopefully) love me for it.

 

Feel free to add us to your friends list.

Here's a 36-er!

I'm 45 and I knew I was getting old when Mrs cleaver was starting to look kinda hot.

I just wanted to know that there is more than just younger, immature, loud, and stoned kids online. Good to see that there is.

(Currently 17yrs old)

33 here, been gaming since the Atari 2600 and handheld football (you know the one that you have to move your dot 10 spots across the screen)!

I consider myself an old gamer so I'll post here. I'm 22 years old and would love to play with you guys at any game. I'm not a parent but send me a friend request if you need somebody to play online with.

I'll also like to join a fun and mature clan, so if any of you guys can recommend any active ones.

While we aren't exactly doing the meet and greet, there are several of us in my clan that are meeting up in Orlando, FL for the MLG tournament in July. While some of the girls are planning to compete several of us are going to just meet and hang out together.  I know I'll have a wonderful time.

You're never too old to rock 'n roll (especially after a few bicardi's).

MRS PJ54, welcome!!  I am an old[er] gamer.  I'm 42 and I plan on still gaming long past I'm 84. 

Kwynn, your mom is my new idol.   My mother just turned 80 and walks around singing with her little iPod, but I can't seem to get her to play games yet.  Perhaps I'l try her out on Zuma and see what happens.

Well. I am not so experienced in my life like most of the post here.

But still welcome the VR world, place for ne opportunities and possibilities. It’s for sure much more fun then watching TV & drinking beer every evening.

 

P.s. I am a father though 28 years old.  My wife (26) and our kids 8+8+5 we all enjoy the X machine.  

 

Well, i'm an old gamer at age 41. my son and i have covered the island of TDU hundreds of times. other kids get a kick out of my son saying dad so othen. they all say that they wished there dad would play with them. about a year and half ago i had to go get my own 360. since we began to argue over who plays first or next! LOL!!!
in the end you have to modify your world to spend time in their world....

I plan on getting my husband his own 360 as soon as I can.  I'm one of seven women who started an online gaming community called  DSO Clan (Delta Special Ops) and my whole family has joined it.  The hubby and all three kids.  Thankfully my oldest son (22) uses his brother's (18) 360 when he's in from college and I would share mine with my daughter (15).  Now that my husband (51) has started playing online with the rest of us I have to share with him too.  I don't mind, but it has seriously cut into my playing time.  lol

I love it that our whole family shares a love of video gaming even though we all have our own favorite games.

hehe - I was up visiting with my mom this weekend and when I walked in she was playing Zuma.  She's beaten the game so many times now I've lost track.  She's upset with herself though because she can't beat the game from start to finish two times in a row.  Apparently that's her new goal.  It's good to have goals.

That's cool about your mom and her iPod.

My 360's blog | TA

Well it sound like it is a good time to buy some more TVs in da house and X360 consoles and play some serious multiplayer system link sessions. I would really like to see ya all in action J

I'm on the cusp of 40. If anyone needs a casual group of older gamers to hang around with, ThirdLif3 could do it for you.

25+ and looking for online friends? Try ThirdLif3

40 and counting! My wife and I love battling with or against each other online in Lost Planet along with my son. A family that plays together, stays together;-)

Live Free and Play Hard ... and then some.

Its nice to meet this many grownup gamers.

I'm 38, married with no kids. I'm the only gamer in the house but my wife has been warming up to Brain Age 2 a lot lately. We did try a few songs on Rock Band but that's about the extent of her Xbox involvement. Its also nice to see a lot of community websites popping up for older gamers.

Of course there are a lot of games to choose from, but if you like 3rd person shooters, Lost Planet:Colonies is good game for online play with a decent crowd of players of all ages and nationalities. I regularly play with many gamers in our age range from all over the world and have made some wonderful friends. There a plenty of game modes and maps to explore that will fit your style of play. Speaking for some of the "old guys" on Lost Planet: Colonies, we enjoy a lot of the team oriented game modes that lets us employ a little strategy over our younger and faster counter parts;-) I regularly host games, so look me up if you'd like to play in the snow a bit.
