Definitely will. They'll pry my soul from the cold hard hands of my virtual reality simulation on the very day I give up the ghost.

Just no playing "Better than Life"

Obscure Television Refrences FTW!

And to awnser your question: Yes, yes I will. I'll go out playing The Elder Scrolls XXVI or Final Fantasy LLXXVII.

CanadianWolverine:
Do people at the retirement home still play cards? That should answer your poll ;)

The games may have changed, but people young and old do game, always have, always will.

great way of putting it :D

Red Dwarf FTW! :D

That will be me.

Indigo_Dingo:
Whats your blood type?

I'm blood type O, The universal doner.

wilsonscrazybed:
I am old.

Yes.

I really hope so. I don't really see myself being able to do anything else if I carry on how I am now. Not like thats a bad thing.

Hopefully, if my senses don't start to crumble by then.
And if they do, I plan on having them replaced with cybernetics.

Actually, I think I'll probably be all robot before I die...
Or I'll have an army of clones that readily supply organs in case mine fail.

Forget getting old, I have the fountain of youth figured out already!!

I'm old, and i game. Is 41 old? My dad's still playing chessmaster on a first gen ps2 and he's 78. My kid beat all of the Zeldas before he turned six. And my wife can kick my butt on the Mario's. It helps to have a family that plays. I really look forward to crushing my boy on the sport games when he learns them.

I remember my dad telling me I'd grow out of "video games" and heavy metal. No end in sight for this old fart.

Baring my complete loss of interest in the hobby I hope to be gaming into my old age. But with the slow death of Traditional RPG's, the rise of MMO's and other stupidty I may give up on the hobby by then.

yep 95 and will still be shouting "GOD DANG CRIT ROCKETS!"
really not sure about that since im only 16 ;s so i got plenty of time

yep. I'll try and play the new games but will also insist that My ps2 xbox xbox 360 and such all still be hooked up and yammer on at my grand children about how back in the day we didn't have Virtual reality suits to use we had to make do with analog sticks and buttons!

also I will still complain about Madcatz crappy controllers even when they make VR ones.

Edit:I'll also talk about FF7 and Shadow of The Collossus and others even when 99% of everyone else forgets about them and make them feel awkward that they havn't played any of 'em.

i hope so, but most people from both sides of my family have got arthritis, so I don't know.

I really really want to, but I'll leave room for unexpected circumstances. I want grandkids to come over and see me blasting hard rock music and playing the latest FPS.

I've had to say 'I hope so' because I'm not so sure I will make it to 'old' as my dad died pretty young. How's that for pessimism?
EDIT: Sorry, it wasn't that long ago. I'm usually quite optimistic.

So long as the gaming industry keeps going, it will keep earning my hard...ish earned monies

I'll still be playing games even after death.

nothing can stop me from playing games

MU ha ha ha

Ahh, yes. I plan to play games until and after death.

I'll spend a few years writing an AI based on my brain, and execute it in a bunker safe from nuclear war and powered by large perpetual power generators, hidden in a place where no one could ever find it, unless they dug really deep in the right place. It can surf the web and post in forums and such, and it will act just as I would on the internet, so I can live on for eternity in the cyber-world. It can play games online, and do everything I could do, unless it requires a physical manifestation of itself. But that's step two: A robotic form which is constantly controlled by my computer system via wireless technology. It would have redundant circuits and would be programmed with a fail-safe so it cannot, under any circumstances, rebel against its owner. Although that would make for a hell of a game. My system would probably make a game like that.

Even after humanity has killed itself or left the planet, I will live on, playing games forever in solitary, until humans return or an alien race comes to the earth and restarts our global communications to study it. Wouldn't that freak them out.

"We're online! We can now study the communication network of this ancient and puzzling race! Yay! We've done it! What the hell? I just got a message saying 'Hello, world'!"

Hellz yeah I'll still be playing!

Even when I'm too old and in the hospital hooked up to an I.V. drip, I'll tell them to hook the PS9 or whatever the hell's on the market to my VEINS! Just jack that mofo into my brain stem and I'll live in the game. Besides, at that age what else will I have to do? See my grandchildren? Fuck them.

Yeah I probably will, but not nearly as much as I do now. I really enjoy reading and the older I get the more interested I am in books and graphic novels. So I see myself doing that as an old man, though I will still have my RPG collection and games no one has ever heard of.

Half my allotted life span gone and I'm still playing games. Will probably still be on GTA 13 when I finally leave.

Hells yeah. I can't think of a reason to stop.

I'm trying to cut on the games these days. I'm not quitting just slacking it..

Heh...

By the time I'm old my reflexes will be unbelievable from playing so many games.

And I don't plan on stopping until I can dodge bullets.

You bet I will!!! I plan on dieing with an X-box controller in my hands!!

I have a friend who recently told me, and he really meant this, that his only true goal in life, as sad is it may seem, was to live long enough to see and play the next several generations of videogames.

Seriously. The only reason he could give me for existing beyond tomorrow was so that he could play some dope virtual reality shit.

He used dream of becoming a dad someday, and maybe owning a bar.

Now he just wants to game.

God this sounds like an anti-drug commercial. And those things are fucking lame.

I mean, I can't wait to see what the future holds for gaming, but jesus, I wouldn't mind accomplishing a few other things along the way.

I'd play with my kids, if I have kids when I'm old. It would be a great way spending time with them. I once tried to teach my dad play Star Wars: Battlefront and despite the fact that he wasn't that into it, we had a good laugh and connected. I reckon if I show that there are hookers and strippers in GTA IV, maybe he'd ask me to teach him again. Ah well.

Most likely, even if the games of the future blow, all still be playing my Ps2 and SNES
