no thats not a very good answer because we get bored and tire of playing games all the time, but after a day or two the fire sparks again,

by the way, when i say quit gaming, i mean for decreasing the amount of time spent on games by at least 80%

I get what you are saying. I have about 4 more months left of good old gaming and filesharing, sittin infront of my cpu all day. Then it is career time, and that is gonna suck. So about 3-6 more months of gaming that it is all over. I guess I will give my 2 Cd binder full of games to my brother in law or something ;)

When I was younger I thought I was going to stop at like 18... Hahaha Now I'm playing Final Fantasy X-2 and I'm 25 years old. BTW when I get to old for them in my mind, or I just don't want nothing to do with them anymore, I'll sit here and let my son play them. He's only 4 years old right now and he loves to watch me play and someday I'll watch him. :P

u moron theirs not imediate way a game can harm you. i know some people in their 40's who live perfect lives have a good job and so on who have been gaming since it started. i'll prolly stop when im in my 50's. you sound like one of those stupid soccer moms who are always trying to get gaming banned or stuff.

Games are fine its a leasure activity, like reading or drawing. As long as people realise there are more important things to life its not harmful.

Games are just a hobby for me like it is for so many more. Nothing harmful in it unelss you over do big time. Anyway what´s the difference with spending a night playing games than to watch a movie, or spend 5 hours in fromt of the TV.

I'll never stop playing games. One can play games even when he's older. Like 15 years ago, I knew this guy who had an uncle. The uncle played everyday those submarine simulators on his Commodore 128. Hell, that guy was like 65 or something, so gaming has no age boundary for me. When I'm 65 I will still be playing those games, maybe not the fps or the kinds I play today, but I will definately be playing games.

Hell, I'm almost 30 and thinking about buying a beamer to play my games on.

Hmm I wonder why more old people don't play games, they are probably retired and collect cans from our trash. Just kidding!!! But seriously I'm 12 and I don't see myself stopping now.
