I can still whoop anyone on this board in Galaga, though.

POLL: At what age did you stop playing video games? I stopped playing with my kids at the age of 32. Just not interested

If I use this to learn to play a guitar, does that mean I play video games?

Played until I was about 23. And about 15 years later, I've picked it up a bit again to play with my kids

I have stopped but only because being a father of 2 toddlers takes all my time.
