Because some people like to see what's going on in the gaming world, it's quite a popular channel too.

Yeah, I have quite a few mates who watch it, to which I simply ask them....

"Aren't you a bit old to be playing with toys?" ;)

And the answer would definitely be not too old, if we're talking about computer/console games. :)

Video game consoles aren't toys! Besides, it's adults of a certain age with a disposable income who are the majority of consumers. Also, you don't stop what you enjoy just because you hit a certain age - I've been playing computer games since the early 80s - I'm not going to stop cause I've got kids and in my 40s! So there! :)

Maybe someday I'll be playing video games with my grandkids!

Quite right, you don't necessarily stop thinking young as you get older. I watch Lady Gaga with my grandkids! They think it's all about the music! :erm::o:

My Dad is 63 but yet he loves playing different games on the computer.

I've been enjoying computer games since I started with an Amiga in the 80's. I'm 68 now and still playing PC games, it keeps the mind active and you're never too old to enjoy yourself. :)

Must admit I stopped playing them seriously years ago. The last console I bought was a GameCube. I am currently housing my brothers wii and still enjoy a good whirl on Mario Kart now and again though. Am always on the lookout for the wii version of Golden Eye first released on the N64. I love that game, it simply rocks!!!
