I am officially old

It doesn't matter that I am 25 years old, I have officially lived to see the day that nobody cares about the games I love anymore, namely the neogeo, and old adventure games. *Sigh* They were so good while they lasted. <i>I</i> will always treasure them, even if nobody else does.

My current list of working games:

Neogeo AES

Fatal Fury Special
Samurai Shodown 2
Magician Lord

PC

Kings Quest 1-7
Gabriel Knight CD version (Acting by Tim Curry!)
Discworld CD version
Prince of Persia
Simcity 2000
Lemmings 3 SVGA
Hero's Quest Remake
Hero's Quest 3
 
You're not alone. :)

<-- I is old tew! They call me SIMPSON! GRANDPA SIMPSON IS THE NAME! I flew over kitty hawk on a thimble full of corn meal! *falls asleep*

MATLOCK!!
 
well i am in my 20s and you are in your 20s so we are not old. not until we break a new age record like in our 200s will we be old because back then old meant like 12 years old, then people would get married. but with the invention of medicine now everyone gets older so old is not old, unless you are well into your 100s.
 
Ill join in on your party here as I am 24. Imagine how old you will feel when you are 60  :lol
Prince of Persia and the King's Quest games are still fun IMO. Lemmings 3? I guess I never tried that one but I really liked Lemmings.
 
<~~~~ Old.

I must be!! I do things that old people do!! I am married. I have two kids. I have a fulltime career. I have (GASP!) my own house!!

Old is a state of mind. I will be 28 in about three weeks. And I too am still an avid player of games that were on the NES, Atari 2800 and 7800, the Sega Master System, etc. I love the 8-bit era games, 16-bit too. But I also have newer games, and am planning on buying a Wii and 360. What else?? I always wanted an SNES. I am also going to make due on my attempt to buy a Neo Geo CDZ from BV.

What else makes me "old" in the eyes of these kids?? I can rebuild a Rochester carbureter blindfolded. I don't have to pay some shop to fix my truck. The list goes on.

So, to the young I say "Youth and talent are no match for age and trechery." To the old I say "growing old is mandatory, but growing up is purely an option."
