By comparison, I can't think of any of my friends who don't play video games today (early 40s).

 

I suspect it had something to do with whether you grew up playing video games from birth (which made it a part of your continuing life) or whether you began playing later (which places it as a childhood pursuit to be abandoned in adulthood).

 

Just an observation I've noticed over the years.

Enjoy it while it lasts!! ;)

 

 

Absolutely.
