It's actually ignorance thinking above 30 you shouldn't play. Average gamer age is 35 and it's shifting upwards every year.

People think only kids play games but according to the stats only 24% of gamers are actually below 18 years of age

A good chunk grew up gaming . It's nostalgic and good memories... How fucking out of touch are they.

Iā€™m 44 and achievement hunting through Far Cry. Finding out that my future VP is a gamer is fantastic news!
