I know games have a steeper learning curve for me these days. Even FPS games, I spend a lot of time finding the right mouse DPI/sensitivity balance and getting used to the mechanics. So I tend to focus on one game at a time until I burn out. After so many hours and days in a row of playing the same game, age is just a number.

Although, PC gamers (especially FPS players) are mostly older adults anyway.

Sounds like death waiting to happen I couldn't imagine taking more than 1 70mg. I also have a prescription for a 30mg in the afternoon, but I don't always take that one.

I'm much better at strategy games and games that require patience than I used to be. I've gotten so much worse at FPS, that I've basically given up on them. I want to say this study is bullshite but I just turned 29 and I know they are right.

I can understand it. I know gaming has definitely taken a back seat to my career and CPA studies. I hardly ever play anything but campaigns and RPGs anymore. I probably pumped more hours into Halo 3 and Black Ops then my total video gaming since then.

Probably because you have responsibilities and can't game for hours and hours anymore.

I've noticed it.

I used to be damn good at competitive games, fps, what have you.

I have steadily become slightly above average.

I was just kidding.. I'd NEVER take that many at once.

I wouldn't even feel a 30mg if I took it. I normally take 2 70's a day if I work a 12 hour day but I don't take them on days I'm off at home normally.... It makes my peepee shrivel up.

You have two coins that equal $0.30, but one of them isn't a nickel....

I use those coins to hire a math tutor. The answer will come easily then.
