Unless you've got a synthetic arm or an optical controller wired to the motions of your eye muscles, let me be depressing...
..your body will age. Your reflexes will slow. It may not take a year. It may not take ten years. It may not even take a hundred years. But at some point, you'll be reduced to solitaire between the time it takes for your dentures to soak to when you have to change your underwear. And that's if your arm is under warranty and your eyes aren't sagging.

...that said, I managed to go through four whole worlds of FFL2 by ear. Which was a bit freaky to me. I was sure my memory was going... although it still might and FFL2 just happens to be stronger than say "eat, poop, sleep, breathe".

...

Crap. I just realized what I wrote. When your life turns into the funny pages... it's not really that funny.

I didn't say I'd play them well. However, I know I've picked up my father's (and grandfather's) stubbornness and I'm sure I'll still play them and convince myself that I'm still good. :lol:

Well that's quite useful to know. If we don't have the money to buy viagra, at least us gamers will have one way to please our old lady wives :lol:

Congradulations, you're deppressing.

I think I'll have no trouble playing Civilization games, or Phoenix Wright.

You wan depressing? I know a friend who used to play Civ 1. She's almost hit 70 and she can barely take a Prince down. And that last time RB had a Monkey Island retro-run, it took me all weekend to get through that game; I can only imagine what happens when I hit 70.

When Capcom vs SNK 3 comes out in 50 years, I'll be the old dude rocking a team of Gen/Chin/Tung.

I plan to play all the games I want to. I don't see getting old as an excuse to stop doing things, at least try to do all you can until the end I always say.
