Im 14 now, and with the recent innovations, I cant see myself quitting being a gamer anytime soon, its just too much fun. maybe once I get a full time job that might change, but I really hope it doesnt

And omega, gimme your monees, I want to be able to afford those things :X

I was so into gaming at one time that I had no time to eat, no time to talk and no time to socialise, my life revolved around the computer. Never bought or played a game since other than visit those on Flash sites.

Yeah I think I'll be gameing for a long time

i was into gaming a lot in college. a lot. couldn't get enough of it. totally grew out of it for about 5 years. now that i have a real job i decided to build a decent computer since i had money and i would buy some games and give it another shot.

i'm having a hard time getting back into it.

There needs to be a 'depends' option because, quite possibly, there will be a time where I may not have the money nor the time to play and if my 'dry spell' is long enough, I might lose interest altogether.

Well, I won't be a gamer. I was gaming for 3 years, since I was 11, and couple of months ago, I started to prefer internet and computing more than gaming. Although, I like playing games, so ...really depends!

Same here, I have a high end rig, but I don't game a lot, but when I do feel like gaming, its nice to know its there. I mainly browse the web.

I've been playing games my whole life and expect to keep playing them forever....

Sounds good. I'm going to be 49 and I will still play Tropico, Max Payne, Bloodrayne2, and Serious Sam every so often to kill time and relax. I don't have the money to upgrade my dinosaur, but what I have works fine for me.
