Oh man,in about 3hrs I will turn 32,where have the years gone =(
After like 21 birthdays don't seem to matter as much,but after 30 you're like yeah whatever. But even at this age I still get nice suprises,so here's to hoping for one. My brother gave me an early bday present a few days ago. He bought me dead space,because he knows i like survival horror games. At first I was like this seems like resident evil in space. But after a few chapters it reminded me more of aliens and event horizon,especially since your on a derelict ship with the exceptions of the monsters that are on the ship and a few survivors. I'm kinda close to the end,and like what I've played so far. Don't know about the replay value though. I think this will be a one and done for me,unless it has like a new plus game.
But what makes videogames great is,that it makes me feel young. I maybe be getting up there in age,but I'm still young at heart. Playing mega man 9 brought me back to simpler times with my nes,and brought a smile to my face. Don't get me wrong,I love the next gen games that come out too,but they feel different. Mega Man 9 with it's 8bit graphics,brought back memories of a simpler time,when you didn't have to worry about money work...you know adult stuff. =) It always peeves me when coworkers say,u still play videogames? That stuff is for kids. Sometimes I wish I could go back and relive my childhood for a week. Ok enough talk..gotta go play some more LBP,I'm kinda addicted to playing other people's levels. I have no interest in making my own,but there are some incredible user created levels out there.
Later,
Paul
Dear Paul, age doesn't exist. Age is a bad concept for keeping people registered in different systems. You are exactly as old as you feel that you are. Not younger, not older.
SpawN-
Strange, isn't it? When you turn 18, you can take responsibility on your own, but when you are 1 second from turning 18, you still can't take responsibility. A magical trigger? I don't know. I really doubt the age matters at all. What should be counted instead is, just that, RESPONSIBILITY. Why use age as a responsibility factor? In my opinion, it is a f*cking stupid idea. MANY 20+ can't separate right from wrong. Look at.. clergymen, or Hitler, which is almost the same thing.. They lack the intellect to respect people for being the ones they are. Now how mature is that?

Thing is, just because your ID card says 32 doesn't make you 32, it doesn't, and it makes no sense.
-
Time is good for some things, but for measuring ones age (responsibility)? No, not at all.

With that being said, I would like to congratulate you on... becoming the age that you feel like you are. ^^
- Spawnie!
