It's changing over time. The average age of a gamer is something like 33 or 34.

Now, we have people separating games into nerdy vs. non-nerdy. Casual games are acceptable (Halo, Call of Duty, Madden, FIFA, Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Mario, etc.) and then you see more hardcore or niche games immediately deemed as weird.

Sad.

What I see is console vs. PC gaming. I didn't buy any of the Xbox360/PS3 whatever, so I got back into PC gaming. Everyone's reaction is like WTF and think its super nerdy even though they are playing Skyrim on a PS3. Weird right?

Plus, all these tards bought Macs while in law school because apparently, that was the thing to do. I don't know anybody with a damn PC laptop who is also into games besides my own brother and that a-hole has a 2 year old daughter so I rarely get to play multiplayer since he's all responsible and stuff.

Ya, I'm mad. Let's roll back to 2000. Good year. I was in highschool, people still had PCs, brother was only 20 years old.
