That's alright, you can simply stick to your old consoles. Who knows, you might get new consoles and still enjoy gaming at the later stages of your life.

Once you're in good health both physically and mentally, and you are a good gaming fan, there is nothing that should stop you from playing unless death.

It does make me wonder realistically whether I'll be able to continue playing certain types of games beyond a certain age. Most people have the same challenge as they are getting old but for it to start happening to you in your late 30's is really sad. It will definitely impede your gaming for too long.

I believe it will be readily available come next year. At this time the gamers ordering it are simply bigger than the PS5 console numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why I haven't taken on the challenge of games such as Super Meat Boy. I doubt I'd be able to keep pace with the manoeuvres required, particularly in the later levels.

Justin11 Posted October 25, 2021 Author Share Posted October 25, 2021 I wouldn't know how the future will be for me in the latter stages of my career playing games. Maybe, I can wake up overnight and hate some games which I am.enjoying at present, that's nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why you need to relax your mind and watch when the console will be released much, and not just low release which it is going through now.

D.C. hasn't achieved statehood yet and for certain political reasons I'm hoping it doesn't. Supposedly, D.C. has gained a metal scene in the last couple of years, so there is that. I just hope that it trickles into Virginia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, my main issue is that I'm afraid of identity theft if I get a PS5 and you have to join the PlayStation Network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifelonggamer022 Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 I think so. At the least I'll be able to work through that big JRPG backlog. I think of all the genres that's the one where old age would matter the least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
