Older Gamers
I've been playing video games since the Atari 2600. That might give you an idea of how old I am. Are there any other gamers over 30 playing this game?

In middle and high school computer classes we had Vic 20s, C64s and Apple 2Es. I played a few Apple games like NORAD and Robot War after school but never liked programming on the Apple that much.
The Vic 20 had so little RAM. 4k expandable to 16k although it looked much like the C64, it's bigger, badder brother that of course had 64k RAM, a powerhouse! 😃
I don't know if you guys have a 2nd and Charles store where you are, but they carry all of the classics. A lot of original unopened boxes, but mainly remade. As well as action figures, comics, etc. I will say this, some things better left in the past. I bought 'Monster Squad' and the one quote I remembered as a kid was the only cool thing in it. "Wolfmans got nards"
I'm 32 (turning 33 on Tuesday).
I have Atari, and I have played on the original XBOX. I use to play Socom 1 and 2 on PSP, and for PC I played the first Halo.
I'm not really much of a gamer.
I had a zx81 and zx spectrum (any older Brits out there will know what I'm talking about.) Still remember spending hours punching in coding from mags dedicated to those consoles. My zx81 had a massive 16k expansion pack. i was always jealous of my next door neighbor cos they had the c64.Skipped a few years of gaming before being reintroduced to it through the Sega genesis and have owned every mainstream console since.Well back in my day, you had to be pretty well off to have them there game systems. I always had to go out and play with rocks lol yes I am a little bit of the older grumpy man variety but I can get the job done 🙂 and not afraid to say it. I will be busting 50 in May and I play every day.
Lol yes I had a spectrum zx ,manic miner and jet set willy
Yes I am 45now and had socom first day it came online ,think I was 21 at the time
Good on you pal 50 and still playing ,I was 45 in May still play as much as I can ,wife calls me a sado lol
32 not that old
- The only two games I can remember playing on the spectrum were hungry Horace (which was a very poor clone of pacman) and frogger, although I'm sure I had a lot more games than that.
I had a pretty extensive library for the zx81, as I had a friend who worked in the Sinclair factory at the time and was able to bring me all the game cassettes available.
