..this may seem a weird thread but older generations(60+,on the whole) only tend to do boring things like knitting, card games and ballroom dancing in their spare time to attempt to stimulate the mind (which slowly but surely degrades over time due to lack of activity and new stimuli). just imagine our new digital gaming generation in many years time, now if games don't stimulate your brain than i am a monkeys uncle. our brains would last longer!! proven fact!
now the only reason i'd play cards or crappy board games when i'm ancient is if they were on Mars alongside a newly discovered supermodel species who can only survive on sex.
so if we're all lucky enough to be able to retire or grow really old we can certainly look forward to a minimum of 30 years gaming heaven. what do u think of that....<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
This thought has passed through my skull a couple of times, I will be retiring around 2043 and im drooling at the thought of what technology is going to be around then. Due to the fact that my body will be going to shit, i'll have the pleasure of escaping to the gaming world with my 900 terahtz PC, fully 3D VR goggles and a force feedback body suit.
