PecanFrost Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I won't give my age away directly, but will hint that I started my gaming life on a console. It had wood on the front, had a switch to change between B&W and colour, and allowed you to play Space Invaders! All hail the great Atari 2600...

Bandit77 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 31 here...I didn't realize there were so many thirty-somethings around. Cheers to all us older farts! I've been gamer since '83. Started out on the Atari 2600 and got a NES in '86. I didn't start gaming on a PC till '97, but I'm glad I made the switch and haven't looked back since.

You never played Oregon Trail or Number Munchers on the Apple IIe's at school? An Apple/Mac is a PC BTW. Everyone has it all wrong. It should be MAC vs IBM clone not MAC vs PC.

It should be MAC vs IBM clone not MAC vs PC.Oh, I defintely remember playing Oregon Trail at school. Problem is there was only a handful of PC's and 3 students per computer at a time. Some of us had to wait before we could even sit down to play. By then, it was almost time to go back to the classroom to make way for the next class. It was a bummer for sure. But I was talking about getting a PC at home to game on. Most of my early PC games were adventure games like Dig, Kings Quest...ect. Then once Half-Life came out and I discovered modding, it was over for the consoles with me. I put up the Deamcast & Playstation and started PC gaming exclusively.

It only feels like yesterday and not a quarter of a century like it really is... Hungry Horace had a way better soundtrack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonlitmagik Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Born in 1981 so that makes me 27 soon to be 28. I'm female, live in the USA so our rating is MA 17+ here in the states. I also enjoy walks in the park, dachshund puppies, ice cream and... Oh sorry. Wrong message board. LOL Been playing since the first GTA came out in my early teens. But I've been known to play some rather adult content PC games when I was still in junior high. Anybody remember "Voyeur"? I played that when I was 12. And it had scenes of adult content and language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[1337]=Jackhammer= Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I turned 18 6 days ago so I am "theoretically" entitled to play it. Theoretically cause in Poland nobody cares about age restrictions, I have been buying GTA's since I was about 12 or something, playing Postal 2 being 14 I think. Got them without problems. Btw in Poland piracy is a serious problem, almost noone buys the original stuff so they don't want to cut their profits even less. Btw those age restrictions are pointless and unnecessary. It stinks communism and citizen control. Over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I remember getting the first ever gta when i was about 7? I used to sit up playing all night, i struggled to do the simplest missions!

DHoff Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 (edited) I remember playing GTA on the PSX when It first came out. I was 9 at the time, I could play for hours.

IJM Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 My name is CharmingCharlie, I am 37 years of age *snip* Anyway glad to see I aint the only old git on here. Wow Rockstar C**ksucker Charmers, I never would have guessed you were an old fart too. I'm 31, and I'm surprised (pleasantly so) that there are more than a handful of old bastards hanging around here. And how. I first saw the light of day one sunny day in August 1967, making me 41 years young. My first machine was a Sinclair ZX Spectrum!!! I first started playing GTA back in 2003 and have been hooked on the series ever since. Strictly a PC gamer though. I don't hold with all this console nonsense.
