33. Veteran OFP player, didn't really care for ARMA (I) because I didn't have the rig to run it plus it was broken as hell at the time.

Happy B'Day!

35 here, in few months 36 :eek:

[Darkhorse 1-6 16]

17 here, 18 next June. Not looking forward to getting older seeing as my hopes of following in my family's footsteps and enlisting in the Army ain't gonna happen.

Oh and it might be a day late but Happy Birthday Placebo. You've got many more years of getting the psychotic waves of players to follow the rules ahead. ;)

[pathetic_berserker 4]

37

But I believe I stopped aging when I started gaming @12.

Isn't it hilarious how all the 20 somethings say they feel old

well I'm "starting" to feel old, not feeling old just yet.

But since I started university I have had less time to "play" and that gives me the idea how it would feels to be older.

Thou on the other hand, I would certainly not call myself young anymore either... and 21 is coming up faster than I'm comfortable with...

Don't worry, after you finish university you'll have some time to play again. Unless you get married and have children, there you'll be screwed until retirement :p.

i am in a small clan and am 64, one other member is 65, another in his 50s and 2 in their 40s. constantly teaching the whippersnappers new in-game tricks:)

Nice idea, this poll. Fair representation of what I expected. Using a quick (and dirty) calculation, the average age of ArmA2 players on this forum would be around 30.

I wonder if this is a representation of the age of ArmA2 players or really more of forum visitors' age. Anyway, its fun to see these figures.

:bounce3:

Edit1:

Compared to OFP: DR's average between 24 and 25. (depends on how you compare things).

The average age of ArmA 2 is just five to six years higher. Less of a difference than I expected. It would be interesting to know (or fun to speculate about) what causes this fairly small difference.

Edit2:

Aha... the average age of gamers seems fairly high anyway.

23+ in the UK (2005) and 33 in the US (2006). Source: http://www.theaveragegamer.com/averagegamers/

According to ESA it's currently 35 (alhough no source is mentioned) and more importantly, frequent game purchasers are on average 39. Source: http://www.theesa.com/facts/index.asp

Maybe OFP: DR players mostly live in the UK? ;)

Wow - thats quite an ol' clan ;-) - I wouldn't have thought of this but I like it.

Hope you're doing well, especially your backs.

OK, someone rewrote the Matrix ;). I see your sources but I can't believe those numbers... Where are all those kiddies fragging each other ad nauseum? What's with the common association between video games and children? And 39 the AVERAGE video game purchaser? Maybe it's because their buy for their children! :D
