You ever play a game and think that there's no way you'll be able to still play it when you're in your sixties, seventies or eighties? For example, whenever you play a game that asks you to mash a button really fast. You ever wonder if you'll still be able to mash the X button or Y button or whatever on your controller when you're older and maybe your fingers are slower? Ever play a tough action game and wonder if you'll still have the reflexes for it when you're older
Are there certain games you love that you can still see yourself being able to play in your old age?

If I can still rock the Bloody Palace in DMC when I'm seventy, I'll be able to die happy.

Wii Sports? since i did see some ad of old people playing it.
but i'll probably still play the timeless Pac-Man, Super Mario Bros, Zelda and puzzle games. doesn't require much buttons smashing to play those games.

I'd probably play turn-based strategy games like X-COM in my old age.

Actually, I know a guy in his sixties that plays games all the time. He can't move hardly, but his fingers are lighning quick. I think that is something that you just don't lose...

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
