Glad to see you...

If the gaming industry is an automobile, and the game designers are the drivers, then that makes us, the players, backseat drivers, and we'll be damned if we're gonna let the industry keep on heading the way it's going (good or bad) without letting them know what we think. So buckle up, feel free to complain about there being no air in the back, and bring your most critical and analytical mind to the open air discussion of the current age, Backseat Gamers!

  1. Wow. That's older than I would have thought. At the oldes I would have guessed maybe 31. Kids that grew up playing games are still playing games and they're older now. That's true for everyone in this blog.

    I like what they say about games being accepted one day as not just for kids, but until then we'll still just be nerds. I don't think there's any hope for WoW players though....

  2. Haha, yes, no hope for WoW players, unless they beat their addiction, like I did... :P

    But yeah, I thought there were some awesome comments about video games being for adults just like R-rated movies. And that age was way higher than I thought. But there are more and more people being drawn into gaming at an older age...
