This funny article gives a checklist of signs that mean you might not be a hard-core gamer anymore!
For those of you who used to play videogames all night and “have a gaming history that stretches back beyond the PlayStation generation to the SNES, Megadrive, Amiga and ZX Spectrum” – time has passed and “you’ve quietly come to realise that you’re not the hard-core gamer you used to be. Even your Xbox 360 Gamertag seems far too ’sensible’. How do you know that a mid-life gaming crisis is setting in? Watch out for these warning signs…”
Signs include: preferring to play against the computer to save face; only playing while your girlfriend is out because she doesn’t like you playing; going days instead of hours without playing; and fondling remembering a ‘golden age’ of gaming.
You should read the full article though and see how you compare.
