Average age of gamers in here?

I'm 17, and have been gaming since I was 3 years old.

I'm not reading those previous 7 pages of posts, but I am guessing most of us are in our 20's. I'm 25.

I'm 30. I've loved games since I was a little kid. Thankfully, I'm not married nor do I have any kids, so I have plenty of money to spend on gaming. Not an infinite amount, however- I DO have a girlfriend, and you know what a drain on the wallet they can be...! I think the first game I've played was Pac-man in the arcades, and my first system owned was an Atari 2600. I then had a Commodore 64. Then I stopped buying consoles for a while, and just wandered around, looking for new and interesting arcades. Ah, I miss those days...anyway, I went and bought a SNES, and got hooked on consoles again, and arcades started sucking, so now I own a PS1, PS2, Dreamcast, and a GBA. And soon probably a Gamecube. I'll game until my dying days.

Well I am 26 years old, the first game I played ever would have to be Donkey Kong while the first console I owned was the Atari 2600

27.

I can't remember what the first games I played were. But they were on the 2600. Most likely Combat, since that came with the system. Or Breakout.

Games that got me hooked were Galaga, Megamania, Pitfal, H.E.R.O.

H.E.R.O. was a great game.

Atari 2600.

I didn't really think games were a big part of my life until college... when I changed my major to computer science so that I could end up making video games.

Well, I started gaming relatively late, around 1986 or so, since we didnt have any game consoles or PC at that time in Russia My gaming experience started when my brother brought a pc from work, and I spent all summer enjoying great games like Montezuma Revenge, Moon Patrol, Aztec and others

I also found out MSX system at that time, thus meeting Metal Gear and Castlevanie series for the first time

Also Commodore 64 gaming was done before I moved to US.

My first US systems I played were little bit of NES and Genny
