Stop gaming ?

absolutely

You are right! QUIT QUIT

i hope not. Maybe not competetively but i'll always play some games in my free time :)

Will quit in a few years probably

ima nerd, cant nothing to it

no i will quit or /kill long before then :D

I don't think I'll ever stop playing games, but I think I will stop playing competitively depending on if I have kids and stuff like that.. but yeah I can see my self playing games even at 70 tbh


i'd also like to say, my dad played RTCW competitively for ages when he was like.. 41 or w/e lol so I defo will!

Everybody's quiting when they find more important things to prioritize their time in

But playing funwars with good company, I can imagine myself doing that still after 10 years.

yes, don't see why not, most probably not as much though

no, ill quit in a few years when i move in together with my gf.. :P

Can you see urself 30-40 years old and still playing games in a competive level ?

YES

Not on competitive level, but to relax and have fun, why not? My dad is 42 and he still plays some PS2/3 games sometimes (maybe 3 times a week 1 hour a day)

When im at a retirement home im still going to play cybergames and drink energydrinks while nurses clean up my diapers. My cause of death would be overdose of caffeine, what a way to die!

ill stop competitive gaming in a few years, or earlier depending on what happens in my life (work kids univerisity). But i will never stop gaming

probably wont stop playing games

even if its only poker, i'll stay play a bit in my free time

i am 19 and i already realised that its totally nonsense.
you just miss too much in real life through online gaming, believe me. i am happy i am not "addicted" as i used to be.

edit: playing when youre bored is ok though. :D even for me there is a bit of spare time which i can use to play just for fun on public, i just dont play like 24/7 anymore.

I think i will allways play games from time to time. But not competative, i am allready not doing that anymore atm.

i play games in real life as well so no =)

I've started playing when I was 14 years old. Never thought of quiting. I play waterpolo for 15 years and I have same there.

Why I would quit something that I enjoy, like and love? Its different story if you dont enjoy it anymore. Like my School at the moment. I dont enjoy my departament or subject that I study. I will study for one year more because after that I will finnish it. Not thinking of doing work of Computer Sience Engineering after the school, because its boring.

When getting older well, no... I think I gonna continue playing. If get girlfriend.. did not bother me in past. I have girl now.. kinda and other girls so dont see any changes. Like vaGgi said "reallife". I want to know what is that you put in category of "reallife"?

I will be gaming as long fumble is gaming <3

I`ve done kids already (4 child) and divorsed 4 years ago, now i live with 2 kids.. and yea i`m over 30 years old..
And i still play games and stuff.

I have to admit that i always laugh to younger ppl, who say that i stop gaming because i found a girlfriend and after 1-2 months they are back and have broke up with GF lol

:D luv you

I dont need to quit gaming, wow is my rl.

im old as fuck. AND WHAT? im still pro, run a business, i fuck fat girls all the time. ladies want me and nerds want to be me. deal with it.








ill still never , EVER cheat at an online game though. thats for the ULTRANERDS.

IM STILL 16 HIHIHI SO ME STILL CAN GAME FOR LONG TIME :PP

24 years old atm, I'll prolly stop gaming in competition when I get out of college. Was set back a few years thanks to surgery.

Well i got work and girlfriend yet im still playing, can't see a change to that

Probably not a competitive level as I stopped with all that a few years ago more fun playing mixes/pub games (ET wise) with some friends, so providing I've got some good company/e-buddies I'll still continue playing.

Been playing computer games for 13 years now (consoles longer) :-(((

not on a competive level I guess, but Ill prolly wont stop playing games, since its relaxing, fun and a hobby :)

I'll get a wife who also plays !
schnee, punky? any1 interested :DD

ET is the only online game I have ever played and will ever play. I dont play half as much as I used to due to work and RL, but I will always love ET :PpPpPpPp

i quited gaming few weeks ago, feels good

married in wow, got small little gnome kids, we go to vacation in tanaris&strangelthornvale, teach the kids to drive at shimmering flats, kill big dragons like halion and still have time to own noobs @ 2.5 rating!

I already stopped playing ET on a competitive level for 8months or something, just some funwars now and then..
But gaming overall, i don't see myself quitting with it for the upcoming years, for example playing Football Manager helps me relax and i don't see any reason why anyone should stop playing games because of their age

probably wont stop playing

on that age im competing as professional mma fighter

this whole 'im alive' thing is one big game..

started with a snes when i was 3 years old so why should i stop playing video games when its still fun :D

i didnt play any game for 1 month now...and i dont miss it

Gamed all my life and will continue to do so. If you can't prioritise real life over games you shouldn't game. Have a perfect balance in my eyes.

gonna quit gaming after summer 2011 (plan)

tho i pretty much quit already

wise man (potentially someone from cf) once said: Time spent enjoying is never a waste of time.

who the hell 'quits' gaming anyways, I always laugh when I see these 'I quit' journals and shit..
more or less everyone plays games these days. Whether it's pc games or videogames or facebook games or poker/chess/whatever, it's the same. What you can do however is decide how you want to balance it between whatever else you might want to do. As long as it isn't a complete addiction it's all right imo.

but to answer the question I think I will play less and less as I get older, it just gets boring and eventually you find smth else you wanna do. Played videogames/ET hardcore when I was younger but now not so much.

i am 34 i have children and i still play -- but i play only at work or after my work at night when family is sleeping -- i think there is no age border for gaming

retired after AEF , playing mix every now and then.

but ill never stop spamming crossfire !

dunno, have to much studying atm to play ET regular :< playing only @ sundays and sometimes saturday when im bored with parties

that would be my dream,

hell no

14y old so got some years to play

probs wont be playing then, dont see no problems with people who would do tho.

Games to me are nothing but a way to relax and I usually have fun playing games. I think it's the same for pretty much everyone on here though, some of us more serious than the others though. I've played a lot of different games but really only a handful single players I'd give a 'replay' and only a few multiplayer games I will consistently (as in at least once every 2 weeks) play. But not in excess though, too much of the same stuff gets very boring.

That's why I think praccing to be 'competitive' for more than 2 hours (20-23 including downtime between pracs) is absurd. :D In SNB we pracced twice a day (20-22) usually, and a lot of days (every thursday at least) we wouldn't prac because people weren't there and the results were still there (lol worst EC ever). The initial chemistry was there right from the start and once you have the team charisma, there really is no point in practising more than is absolutely necessary. It will just make the game feel like a drag instead of a relief. :)

Ace, I don't play games.
