There's absolutely no age where you're too old to play video games. I have been playing video games nearly all of my life (26), both my parents play (late 40s) and I know some people playing in their 60s. If you think that is crazy you should try playing a MMO. I've played World of Warcraft for a few years now and I've meant many people 40s, 50s, 60s and even some 70s. These people all have families, jobs and whole lives spent elsewhere from the game. Never let your age hold you back in anything you really want to do.

Whoever tells you your to old to play games is an idiot. I know people who are in their 50's playing video games. People tend to forget that video games are not just aimed at children anymore, and think of adults playing games like mario. Its pathetic really, that they think one waste of time is better than the other. So basically what retards like that are saying is you can go read a book, see a movie, yet as soon as you do the exact same thing, only this time interacting with the game, is for children? No, they should go screw themselves, play games until for as long you you want.

If You Are Older Than 50 And Still Playing Video Games You Are Amazing!!

The ratings of games does not determine your age but by the violence level. I have played games since I was 10 especially the gamecube and I'm 22 and still play video games. It sounds like the new world order is slowly trying to take peoples lives and that's how I feel about this question. Asking how old is too old to play video games is like asking how old should a woman be to wear makeup. You shouldn't have to answer to people why you play video games, watch cartoons, etc. If you looked at the rating laws you'd think before you ask a question we have laws for everything you know.

The age at which you think video games are boring and you find something else to do. I don't think there should be an age limit, video games are there for your enjoyment, and as long as you like them you should keep playing them. Don't stop just because someone say's your to old to be playing video games. But if your playing them none stop and it's taking up TO much of you time, then you might want to consider pulling back on the reins a bit.
Hope this helps
2015-04-06 12:52 am
you are never too old to stop playing video games however if you have to ask this question to yourself to decide most probably you already know that at some age there are more important things to worry about.Violent video games, missions, or just an app on your phone can be considered a game because they all serve the same purpose which is to entertain and can be compared to movies.But even with movies or shows there is better ways to spend your time doing something productive i know because i watch way to much netflix. But of course if you can keep a balanced life and play video games without keeping yourself cut off from the world then you should continue to do what you do no matter what the haters say!

To say,the old age is the best age for playing video games because in your childhood you are busy with studies (and you even should be for a experience for studying and not getting bored from it after 10+It is super boring for me because I never gave my study time in my childhood) and you don't have money to buy the costly ones. Same is with the teenage but most people busy with friends and obviously not in 20-40 because you are doing work about 8 hours in a day and only got some hours or a day to play.But when you are old,you got nothing to do and even got money to buy the superb games.
2015-04-05 8:39 pm
There is no age that is too old to be playing video games. People should always do what makes them happy and if playing video games makes them happy, then good on them. For older people, it keeps their minds alert too.
2015-04-04 8:36 pm
No age. However as you get older you need to consider and pay proper attention and care to things in your life that are important for you at that age, such as your future, dating, family and kids. As long as any of these things aren't being sacrificed so you can go on a video game binge, it's okay to play video games conservatively, just take care you're not spending too much time on them.

Hope this answer helps. ;)

I'm in my 40s and I've been playing video games since the 1970s. I know several people my age who play, and my father-in-law is in his 60s and plays Everquest, Minecraft, inFAMOUS, etc.

"There's a growing body of evidence that suggests playing video games actually can improve older adults' reflexes, processing speed, memory, attention skills and spatial abilities," said Jason Allaire, an associate professor of psychology at North Carolina State University and co-director of its Gains Through Gaming Lab.

There's no age for playing video games. It's for everyone
2015-04-03 10:59 pm
There's no age limit. I'm 35 and still play 2-3 hours every night, and have no plans to quit in the foreseeable future.
2015-04-06 10:07 pm
There is no age at which one is too old to play video games. It's a hobby, like so many others. My Grandfather golfed until he broke his hip and his doctor informed he was no longer physically capable.He's in his 80's and enjoyed his hobby until he was physically unable to do so. Video games are the same, they are a hobby to be enjoyed until the person is either no longer interested or rendered physically incapable.

I play MMO's primarily. In the guild in which I play, there are multiple members --both male and female -- that are well into their fiftes, and some who are into their 60's.

In conclusion, there is no age limit to playing video games, or enjoying any other hobby. There is just close-minded people that think gaming is only for children.

You don't see anyone telling a bunch of 12 year-olds they can't play shuffleboard or bingo, do you?
2015-04-06 4:43 pm
You're never too old to play video games. My boyfriend and I are both 21 and we both still play video games. My brother is almost 32 and he still plays video games. I don't plan on stopping ever, even when I have kids because then I can play with them and show them games that I played when I was their age.

No age is too old to play video games
2015-04-05 3:58 am
Really there is no age to stop. Some people may stop at a certain age because they will think im a adult now adults don't play video games so im going to stop. Really its your choice when to stop. There was a elder which is a grandma that still plays video games. Also you dont have to stop playing games entirely.. there are some people who play games that arent video games like playing with a yoyo or a cup and all agme. Again its your choice
2015-04-08 9:24 pm
You are never too old. I know someone who is in their 40's and play every time they get a chance. I would think it's good for the brain and stimulates the brain and keeps one thinking
Never stop,playing what you enjoy. We all have different pleasure, so, this is yours. Do it!!
I know someone who lovesssss Resident Evil games. I mean they are a big time collector.
2015-04-08 9:21 pm
I think there's no limit. Perhaps if it is preventing you from doing anything else or living life, then limiting games is a solution. But working games into your schedule is a great way to unwind, hang with friends, build up an online community, or even be your social interaction of the day. Just remember: if you find that your life has been taken over by video games and other aspects of your life are suffering (job, school, family, friends), then gaming needs to take a back burner - at least temporarily - so that your life is balanced.
2015-04-08 8:29 pm
Well, the real question is, "when do you start getting worse?" because you can play games until you die, but you peak in ages 18-24, after that, your reflexes slow, however, just because your slow, doesnt mean you cant outsmart people, I would say for first person shooters about age 28, for strategy games, never.
2015-04-08 6:15 pm
The time you should retire your controller is when you die.I have a neighbour grandpa who spend most of his time playing games he is 75 years old.
2015-04-08 2:15 pm
I believe that it is time to put it away when you start to become obsessed. However, playing games for a while can give you some real life experience. For example, i was a bad noob a few years back in minecaft, but then i learned the game and can now build awesome red stone factories!

My grandfather is 97 years old. He is stuck in his chair strapped to oxygen tanks. Still plays games. Although he has forsaken the more intense games... don't wanna get shot in the back while playing COD, and have a heart attack. =/
2015-04-04 6:55 pm
I believe there is no age to stop gaming, or anything you enjoy/love. However, it should remain a hobby not a full on lifestyle. Although if you're in the field of video game testing, then of course that's most likely your lively hood. But I do believe you shouldn't let your hobbies overtake your life, as where is your harmony and quiet place? Furthermore, you do need to remember gaming can cause anti-social behaviors and may lead to a difficult family life style. As a result, gaming should be as moderate as you like, just enjoy your life. YOLO :)

You can play video games when you want! Video games are entertainment, like TV! Noone is too old for TV!

My grandfather asked me when it was too old to stop having fun. Stop asking things like that, and enjoy your life. It could end at any moment. Live to the fullest.

Dear Anonymous,
The Answer is whenever you want to. Your never too old. But I suggest getting a job. Unless you work as a programmer or a Game tester then you may be working on Video games about every day. Just don't get too addicted, getting addicted to video games can get bad in many ways.

It depends on the game and the player's age. I mean, if you're nearly fifty and love Pacman or Asteroids or those cool old games from the 80s because now you can get them unlimited for free on the internet instead of having to spend tons of dollars in quarters, why not have fun reliving their youth?
2015-04-04 9:03 pm
I'm 39, 40 in July, my want/passion/willingness to sit and game is just waning. I cant' even sit for an hour without getting fed up with most of todays games. Xbox One, played the exclusives, tired of them, I use it for the DLNA content, my movies, music that sort of thing. Just doesn't interest me. Tried to play Xbox 360 and PS3 a few times, couldn't even enjoy the old titles. Graphics also have spoiled me, since I use to game on PC. Which I don't even touch anymore. I would say my age is, but that's just my feelings. If you're fed up you can be 15, 25, 35, 45, all up to you. Societies view, and the view of women are people in their late 20's should be pretty much past that stage. I have a gf now who despises video games. And says real men work and make livings, and spend time with people/socially. Have to admit she has a point. We don't suck our thumbs forever, or play with dolls in our 30's right?

well now for you because your already thinking about it.
2015-04-17 1:56 am
I don't think you're ever too old, as long as you still enjoy playing video games and you do want to still, it's not like at old age you're not allowed to so, as long as you want to play video games there is not retiring age for it.
2015-04-13 11:18 pm
When they pry it out of my cold dead hands. Never to old to play games. Your priorities just change more as you get older and have more responsibility.
2015-04-12 6:54 pm

As long as you are balanced and responsible in other areas of your life (relationships, fitness, school/career), no age is too old. I'm a 27 year old wife and mom, and I love video games!

I used to think that 20-30 was to old to play video games but they are the biggest contributors to purchasing video games. my next door friends dad was like 60 and he was playing the god father and gta 5. so i guess there real isn't an age limit
2015-04-10 11:37 pm
1000. In other words it never to late to play.
2015-04-10 7:14 pm
I think you should stop playing video games when you can get a job and earn some money. It is OK to sometimes play it when you're older but don't get addicted.
2015-04-10 4:17 am
There is no age to stop playing games for good, but imo there is a age to stop playing it 3+ hours every day. I say once you get a job or a gf/bf that's when you should play less and spend more time with other things in life.
2015-04-10 3:52 am
There's absolutely no age where you're too old to play video games my dad is 41 and he still plays video games I don't think there should be an age limit, video games are there for your enjoyment, and as long as you like them you should keep playing them

There is no age limits in playing games. People of many ages from kids to the youngers can play games. Games are played for entertaining ourself. we are never too old to play games. Can a 10 years old boy create an action game, simply no. People think different and Act different.
2015-04-09 4:44 pm
Like all the above answers, you're never too old. Wanna play? Just grab a controller and enjoy :D
2015-04-09 4:35 pm
When you are dead is when you're too old. No matter what age you currently are in the land of the living, there is no way you can that controller down unless you want to change systems or change games.
2015-04-09 2:02 pm
this is no age anyone can play games.

2015-04-08 5:00 am
You know your too old to play video games if any of these statements are true.

You are dead.

You don't even know your own name anymore.

You have no idea how to use these new fangled gaming contraptions.

You are actually intangible for some unexplained reason (Likely, you are a ghost).

That's it. If any of those apply to you then yes, you are too old to play video games.
2015-04-08 4:31 am
Any age is okay as long as the video games do not interfere with more important things.
2015-04-08 4:27 am
maybe 30? you can keep playing after that but maybe ppl will be like a old person playing with no life? idk play until waterer age you want.

At whatever age you get bored of them as long as there not causing problems in your life but personally I don't see people much older than 50 on any games. But really just ask yourself its your choice of when you feel that you've had enough. I'm 16 and I've been playing for 9 years and don't plan on stopping anytime soon just make sure you have your priorities straight. :)
2015-04-08 12:32 am
A good age to stop is infinity days after you die because Video Games are awesome :D
Playin' Games in my coffin is what I will do for eternity! I will prezerve my body until they have the technology to put me in a robot, and then I will just play games forever :3
2015-04-08 12:26 am

2015-04-08 12:09 am

2015-04-07 6:42 pm
There is no age, however, if you are say 25 and still spend over half your time playing you might take a look at your behavior, There is more to life than video games.
2015-04-07 6:41 pm
There isn't any age to stop playing. As long as you don't play it too much
2015-04-07 6:31 pm
Never I am almost 30 and I play them all the time. Not only do I enjoy them but they are a good stress reliever after a long day!
2015-04-07 6:19 pm
You are never ever too old to stop playing video games.(Maybe when you die, however)
2015-04-07 5:49 pm
Even if your 45 60 or 70 there is still a spot for youth in you no matter what who cares if people look at you weird they just don't understand the true potential of life so enjoy with what you have man you have a lot to live for
2015-04-07 5:22 pm
The video game industry has changed its target, and games are no longer designed only to entertain teenagers and kids. I was just 5 years old when my parents bought me an Atari in 1987, now I am 33 yrs old and I still play video games and can t see myself without that. The advantage is that now I can afford my high end computer and buy many games titles on Steam.

2015-04-07 4:58 pm
No age is too old to be playing video games, unless you have some age-related problems (such as a weak heart) that can be triggered by video game activity, like flashing lights or sudden reflexes. Otherwise, no matter how old you are, GAME ON!
2015-04-07 4:33 pm
I gave up on video games last year at 52. I got tired of them, and, wanted to be more constructive with my time. My wife, 51, still encourages me to play some.
2015-04-07 4:31 pm

2015-04-07 2:30 pm
I don't see anything wrong playing games no matter what age...I don't understand why some people consider it as a "child" thing where it obviously created as an entertainment to fight boredom, while having FUN...thus called GAMES in modern era. What's wrong having fun to counter stress? I called it >>"MODERN"<< hobby.

The only thing I think you should stop is when it affects your life due to addiction. In some sort you can call it as a bad addiction if it affects your life like losing your job, being unproductive etc. which swallows your life. If that's the case you should stop. We became addicted to it because it stimulates our brains. So moderate gaming is fine.

It is not bad to play games no matter what age , it is bad when it affects your life. So awareness & discipline is a key also
2015-04-07 2:29 pm
boys think a video game is the same as watchin tv but it aint. basically when u r killing people u are controllin the character so u get too involved with the killing. when u r watchin it its just someone else doin it so u dont get influenced by the game. but basicly a game is for children like mario or pikachu and grownups play it because they think its the same as watchin tv. tell me is there any education game like the history channel...didnt think so :/ ppl play games where they kill and rape for a high score cos they think it makes them cool but would u do that in real life? no...didnt think so
2015-04-07 2:13 pm
no age limit for the video game. I have seen a grandmother playing with her grand children and even teaching them even how to play. I think, she is 75 years old.
2015-04-07 11:49 am
Any age because video games target all group of age from 6 to i guess 80. 6 is basic because before that a human being hardly has the basic knowledge about his surrounding and things, a complicated console or a PC is too much for him (this also includes mobile games). Now the best way is to check the age rating on the game if you want to know which game is targeted to which age.
2015-04-07 10:40 am
No old is too old for anything. One can play video games at the last stage of his or her life. One can enjoy his or her life every time, every moment of his life. As the video game is very enjoyable so you can play it any time. But playing it for too long is not good for his health.
2015-04-07 10:37 am
There is just no age for this matter whatsoever.
2015-04-07 8:43 am
no prob do as u feel

2015-04-07 4:59 am
Video games are amazing. Age cannot put a limit on them - however age can put a time restriction on them. If it does not pertain to your career, once you're out of you're parents' house and have a job to concern yourself with, your gaming should not interfere with your life goals.
2015-04-07 4:49 am
Depends on what you want. Girls or video games?!?! Junior and high school girls probably think they're okay, but not older girls. Can't stay an adolescent forever and girls worth dating don't think they're cool. Let the booing and thumbs down begin!!!
2015-04-07 4:43 am
when you can't get any interst from the game
2015-04-07 3:58 am
There is no age limit when it comes to video games. I even think that older people should play more as a therapy for their brain.
2015-04-07 2:57 am
My grand father of 70 played runescape with me for 4 years until we both became tired of it. No limit id say.
2015-04-07 2:52 am
It all depends on your health- my dad stopped playing in his 70's due to a stroke.
Other than that he'd be playing them. Pong came out when he was 30.
2015-04-07 2:31 am
It is never to old in this modern day. the average gamer in Australia is 32! the only reason people say its childish is because they where born before the video game world expanded and became part of everyday life.
2015-04-07 2:07 am
You're never too old to play video games.
2015-04-07 2:07 am
I know someone who is about to turn 70 who will still pick up a controller. So there is no limit.
2015-04-07 1:25 am
You're never too old! Video games are used for lots of things, including education and therapy. Don't let people tell you that you're too old to play video games, they're too stupid to be giving you advice.
2015-04-07 1:20 am
If you're a die hard gamer, there's no such thing as retiring the controller. Scientist has proven old people can benefit from video games because it will keep the brain functional so therefore smarter.
2015-04-07 1:11 am
MY GRANDPA IS 70 AND HE PLAYS GTAV WHEN HE COMES AT MY HOUSE !!!OMG!!!

when ur too old to move ur thumbs and u have been blinded and deafened by age.when u are on ur death-bed unable to move the joystick cuz u are just too weak, then you are too old to play games. until then you're cleared to button mash until the cows come home, you don't need to drop that controller for anyone except ur boss when ur on schedule! So have more fun and GAME ON!

It's different for everyone. Whenever you die, after that your too old to play video games.
2015-04-06 9:52 pm
No such thing anymore. Games are an adult medium. You're only too old to play video-games when you can no longer understand how they work.
2015-04-06 9:23 pm
In my thoughts, it doesn't matter. Its your life and you can do whatever you want(accept get out of consequences) and you have a complete right to play a game, weather an child, teenager, adult, I even know of a few eighty year olds who play them. Why else would there be an 18+ rating? the + means going on forever.
2015-04-06 9:18 pm
I think 32 is the top age for playing games...... kidding! You just keep right on playing for as long as you like and your fingers are still working! ;)

You are to old to be playing video games when you stop getting enjoyment from them. Other then that, GAME ON!
2015-04-06 8:33 am
actually, there is no age limit to play video games. though it does not demand physical labor, so any one at any age can play it. but i think 70+ is too old to play it.

2015-04-06 6:03 am
You're never too old, but you may not have the time. As long as video games come after more important things like work and family, you are fine to play them.
2015-04-06 5:46 am
Never to old,
2015-04-06 4:47 am
Never!
2015-04-06 4:38 am
The age at which you think video games are boring and you find something else to do. I don't think there should be an age limit, video games are there for your enjoyment, and as long as you like them you should keep playing them.
2015-04-06 4:37 am
You are never too old,me and my husband both play video games and will play it with our little girl when she gets older!

A person is never too old to play video games if he/she has the heart for it and is physically capable of playing.
2015-04-06 2:59 am
Never too old, but be sure to continue playing your life. Keep working on finishing the quest your career has for you. Eat your healthy foods to restore HP and Mana. Go to the weight room or go jogging to build strength, stamina, etc. But always remember, there is always a time to take a break and play on the box!!!
2015-04-06 2:58 am

You should stop playing video games on your 18th birthday.
2015-04-06 1:58 am
There is no age to play video games. People should always do what makes them happy and if playing video games makes them happy, then good on them. For older people, it keeps their minds alert too.
2015-04-06 1:20 am
I've been playing video games since they came out. I do need to update my stuff but I don't see age as a factor. It's a matter of time and videos take a lot of time. You shouldn't short the rest of your life to play butif you have that valuable time, then why not.
2015-04-06 1:17 am
This is a preference only to be decided by the person. Pressure in any form can affect this preference such as peer pressure. It is really just the person, they might find it amusing and video game interest span will last longer than if a person who isn't very interested or into video games.
2015-04-06 12:06 am
No such thing as too old as long as you are mature enough to know when to stop for the day. Now that I'm retired I play more at 65 then IT ever did before

Age has nothing to with it most guys stop or at least slow down when their wives make them. Otherwise they can pry my controller out of my cold old dead hands, and give it to one who once made me quit.
2015-04-05 9:21 pm
You're never to old to play video games. Just don't play them too much!

2015-04-05 8:27 pm
Never, some games say 18+, the plus indicates up to 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 years old. That's if you live that long. highly plausible.
2015-04-05 8:22 pm
Your never too old and young to become a gamer, and stop being a gamer!!!
2015-04-05 8:08 pm
Like any other passtime. video grames need only to be laid aside when one no longer finds amusement in them. To argue otherwise is only to reveal oneself as an intolerant bigot unable to ackowlege the legitimacy of any pleasure they themselves do not enjoy.

There is no age to stop playing, because playing entertains and you have to have fun in life, you know what they say YOLO!

2015-04-05 5:22 pm
It just depends on the person. Any person who would consider gaming a major hobby of theirs probably would say there is no limit to how old you are. I agree with this.

Some people however view games as toys or distractions. These people don't usually consider gaming an art form, thus they would tell you that gaming is for kids or something among those lines.

64 and retired. I'll play a strategy game for a couple of hours each day as a way to keep the mind sharp and focused. Used to play "World of Warcraft" until they made it pay to play. (Yes, when it first came out, you had the option of single or multiple players)
2015-04-05 1:16 pm
Its never too old to play games. But as you get older you have less time to play games because of life and stuff.

I think it depends more on your economic standing, not how old you are. If you are broke, don't have financial support, and can't pay off your rent, you probably shouldn't be playing games. But if you are earning satisfactory income and have a lot of free time to spend, then you can play as much as you enjoy it regardless of how old you are. It also depend on other factors, such as health, but if you really enjoy it why not?
2015-04-05 6:30 am
Well it depends on your interest, if you don't have much interest in video games, than that is the exact time to think of other amusement stuff.

You don't ever have to stop playing video games if you don't want to. I'm 26 and still play, as do many of my friends. My mom even likes to play Animal Crossing. As long as there's a video game you like to play, you don't have to stop. Don't ever let anyone tell you you're "too old" to do something you truly enjoy.

There is not an age. I am 16 and my dad has been telling me to quite since I was 13. I started when I was like 6 or 7 so there is NO way I am giving up my hobby! Lol

yes

The average age of a gamer is 35

The day you die is the day you should stop playing games. If you enjoy something (as long as it isn't harmful like drugs) there is no reason to stop.

it probably more depends on how much time you are spending playing video games. If you have a family and 3 kids you probably don't want to have video games get in the way. But that doesn't mean you have to stop. It just have balance in all things.

Well, games like Super Mario 64 say "Ages 10-100", so no limit essentially.
2015-04-03 11:00 pm
That's the thing about hobbies; you're never too old for them. Gaming knows no age limit. Game away for however long you enjoy it!

You're never too old, but you can be too young.

you should stop when you get married.

Your age is too old .
2015-04-04 5:43 pm
I am 22 and I play like a maniac. Ask me after 20 more years...I'll give you the same answer.
2015-04-04 4:45 pm
You are never too old, but you might be not competent to play and have fun either.
2015-04-04 3:31 pm
IF it is not taking time away from the wife and kids or your job and you're NOT obsessing.....have fun.....
2015-04-04 2:26 pm
You can quit at 47 or 42 if you are having mentality problem
but i continue until (if i dont die then) UNTIL 70
2015-04-04 12:34 pm
no age,
2015-04-04 11:43 am
Retire when your eyes can no longer see the screen.
2015-04-04 11:18 am
No age. Why would there be rated m games if video games were only for children?
參考: Common sense
2015-04-04 7:22 am
No age limit,
when parents play, they are actually trying to get closer with their children
When adults play they use it as a nostalgic memento
When adults play it without the nostalgia they are just having fun
2015-04-04 6:56 am
Dunno. I'm not there yet. (Nearer 70 than 60).

Young, play to train your sensitive and plastic mind.
Middle-aged, play to sharpen up and learn things once in a while.
Old, play to keep the trusty razor's edge and keep up with the young ones.
Dead,

There, that's when you stop!
2015-04-04 4:49 am
So by that rational you should stop reading books, riding bikes, listening to music or watching movies from that time because you're too old for that stuff now. Right?
2015-04-04 12:11 am
69 years old.

When you have so many responsibilities that playing games would really mess it up. Or if you have goals in mind where video games would be an interference. Some people can't play games cause they work a demanding job and might also have a family. There are people who grew up never playing games. Some discover it and find it pleasureable, while others don't think much of it.

I say it's now about how old you are, but about what your life's ambitions are. Games can stimulate the mind, but too much of it ca really suck up your time. Then you might find no quality woman wants to marry you cause you lack success, and thus have to settle for something less.

Never. Even when you're dead you can still play video games.
