When I went to best buy I saw like a 90 year old man in a wheelchair go to the games section and picked up Syberia and left.
I hope he paid for it.

welcome wings!
You have gotten the attention of the mysterious lady. She turns to face you. Her face is devoid of any flesh. You are frozen with horror as she begins ripping your body into a bloody mess.

Status : Online | You would be amazed at the number of gamers (especially adventurers) who are "40-something", "50-something" and beyond! While much of the industry focuses on young guys with itchy trigger fingers, there is a growing demographic of older gamers (including a lot of women) who are avid fans and spend a lot of money.
One of the most fun things about going to a few E3s was seeing all the other "older gamers" that were a part of the online press!!
I'm 45 and having a blast :-)

We're going to get fired up about the real things, the things that matter! Creativity, and the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit.

I guess that would include me?...I'll be 33 in two weeks and I have about 55 adventure games in my collection (we've previously established that I haven't played most of them yet....but I'm working on it!). I suppose I fall into this category of older women gamers who spend a lot of money.

I'll be 53 in June. I really enjoy the diversity of ages, opinions, locations, etc of the members of this forum.
And the friendliness and caring too!

Still adventuring after all these years!

I'm 56 and very young at heart. I enjoy this forum so much where age makes little difference. The young seem older and the older seem younger.
I think we'll all be gaming into the twilight of our lives.
