I feel like this is a stupid question to ask, but does anyone in this forum play video games? If you do, you can tell me what game system you play on and a few of the games you play. If you don't, I'll understand why.

Hello there, I play video games from time to time, on the following platforms: Playstation 4/5 , Xbox Series X and Switch, PC and mobile iOS and Android. List the games would now take a little longer

The average age of a Gamer is 35 dude, nothing stupid about it! I'm 41 and just bought Dead Island Vegas and I'm speccing out a new gaming PC for when I get my next bonus at work.

56 y.o. here. Been gaming since my single digits. No intention of stopping anytime soon.
Playstations 1 - 4, PC, Sega Genesis, NEC TurboGrafx 16, Mattel Intellivision, Atari 2600, Atari 600XL computer, Telestar (Pong sports), numerous hand-helds from the '70's & '80's - And I'm sure I'm forgetting some.
Usually I play survival horror, sci-fi, adventure, etc. Not much of an online gamer though.

For me it's mostly just PC gaming. But I actually spend less and less time playing. My Steam library has turned into the quite the pile of shame over the years.

I do not, personally. However, I would be interested in suggestions that might be used by guests. To be specific, I would like suggestions for any form of casino game that can be played entirely off line with no money actually at risk and with the software downloadable at no cost.

I played Pong when it first came out. Have they improved since then?

I did a research project using pong, way back when. I was able to get into the code enough to introduce a variable (at the whim of the researcher) delay between movement of the control device and the response of the goalie. When delays reached about a quart of a second the game became unplayable. Simulated drunk driving cars work about the same way.

Maybe just a little.

Well, Intellivision used to come stock with "Las Vegas Poker & Blackjack". I'm sure you could find an emulator for it online somewhere. Likely lots of others too. Most, if not all, should have an offline play option. "L.V.P.&B." was offline only 'cause there was no internet then. lol

lol I've lost count of how many games I've bought but never quite gotten around to playing. Games from every system. I keep telling myself 'I will get around to them eventually'. Yeah, right...

Youtube Search "Dead Island 2 Gameplay". The graphics, the Physics, the damage effects.....holy hell. And the burnt plastic smell of your GPU cooking adds apocalyptic realism too.
