Haha, yeah... after the Nemesis post I feel young now as well. I'm the big 25 in October.......... kinda sucks in a way. Enjoy your late Teens and early 20's while you can kiddies, coz it don't last forever

35 FTW!

The average ages of gamers in Australia according to a survey from a couple of years ago is 33.

The survey probably included a lot of casual console gamers too I think. Hell my dad still plays the old Day of Defeat on the PC and he is 61. He does pretty well... I just don't have the heart to tell him that he is actually playing against bots...hehe

29 here... struggling to deal with the fact that SC2 time is diminishing over time due to concerns over career and time with gf though. Once you reach the late 20's stage play time is nothing compared to my school / uni days but I guess I can still get like 20-25 hours per week.

ToRFutureBoy · Fri, 20th-Jan-2012, 8:23 AM

Yeah...apparently it is about the same here in NZ but with SC2 I find that hard to believe

Surveys use the term 'gamer' to include anyone who plays Farmville on Facebook once in awhile.

The average age of people who label themselves as gamers would be a lot lower, methinks.

24 here, same boat as Erasmus - world ends the day I turn 25. Good times.

They count anyone who plays a game as a gamer. So that includes The Sims, Angry Birds, and any other little flash/iphone game. If it was just competitive games I'm sure it would be lower.

26 makes me one of the older (and no doubt wiser) chaps around.

I got BW in 1998 and started playing it like crazy on line in 2001.

I'm a 27 year old kid. I have been gaming since my old man built a PC that took those giant 8" floppy disks and I played Frogger on it in the late 80's. I will probably still be gaming when I'm in my late 80's :P
