Who is OCUk's Oldest Gamer?

30 here and been gaming since 1984 - brother was a few years older so already had an Electron, BBC Master, and a ZX81. We both still fought over who was going to use the TV.

I'm 23.

I've always had massive respect for oldies who game.

(And that's... All of you! *runs*)

This doesn't quite count, but my grandmother is 76 and is a keen player of Skyrim, and pretty much any RPG (dragon's age etc)

That counts, good on grandma.
I'm a grandad and have been playing pc or console games sinse 1975-ish, well from whenever that ping pong tennis thing came out, probably before that, you see thats the problem, memory, not playing the games but remembering what I have completed in the games.. :confused:
