    40 here. I would love to add more people to my friends list who are mature, friendly, and articulate. It allows me to ignore /zone chat, which is good for my blood pressure. (We actually maintain a "guild" that serves exclusively as a chat channel for people who are a little too old for the general chat channels.)

    When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."

    42 and proud of it! My husband and I have been gaming together for 14 of the 18 years we've been married. King's Quest was the first computer game that really hooked me in the late 80's. I remember they had a 900 number to call when you were stuck in the game!

    Picasso had it right: it takes a long time to become young!

    Solidarity, fellow older gamers! Let's get together and own these noobs!

    I loved Kings Quest!! KQ4 was my first, Got into the old ones, and up stopped at KQ6.
    I also remember Space Quest, Quest for glory. Loved Glory, how you could have your character on a new QFG.

    Do you guys remember the game, Wasteland? If you do, they are making Wasteland 2. Currently in beta. Suppose to be huuuge, and centers on Arizona and LA.

    I think if there were games like this in the 20s, 30s, ect, our parents/grandparents would be gamers.

    That sounds great - 41 here and I need a place to talk about the affect that being stuck on a cliff in Cyrodiil for over an hour with 8 guildies is having on my blood pressure. I don't think the Hydrochlorothiazide is cutting it any more! (pm'd you)

    I'll be 55 in October and I'm looking forward to the $.50 discount at the local buffet. Been playing video games since pong and RPG's since paper D&D my first console game was a Coleco Vision.

    I've seen it all, done it all, heard it all...I just can't remember it all!

    Count me in for the Old Farts Guild!

    My first game was on a commodore amiga 1000, had expanded memory of 512KB (no one would ever need more than that). :-) No hard drives back then. Booted and played with floppies.
