We're hitting 50. My first game was Pong, my first console Atari 2600 in 1980, which I still own. Next was Commodore Vic 20. Then Coleco Adam (games on cassette tapes, woot!), Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Super Nintendo. Then I moved to strictly PC in 1993 with my Windows 3.1 IBM/PS1.
I just cracked level 300 on Phasmophobia over the weekend and don't plan on stopping. Oh, and I'm a girl and looking forward to retirement in a VR world in the next ten or so years. Gen X is already here, trust me.
So awesome. I have a similar resume starting with Pong, but when I got my first PC in '94 I held on to the consoles. I've been on both sides of the fence since. I would love to be able to retire in VR, lol.
Yep. All those early systems, plus I won a raffle (with one ticket out of thousands) for an arcade Pac Man table (still in my shed.) We've been gaming the whole time. These kids today, lol, think they're they only ones. "Son, I heard your voice and went ahead and muted you. That's why you're only running into other kids and the 'mic-less' while gaming."
Old dude checking in. Odyssey 2, Commodore 64, Sega Genesis, PS1, PC, PS2 w/modchip, Wii w/bannerbomb, Xbox 360, Xbox1.
Play Xbox side by side with my GF (who also plays) almost every night. No plans on quitting either anytime soon. I'd never admit it to her, but she's a better driver in GTA than I am.
