Your gaming age is 25. Real life has started to get in the way, but you’ve still got a PS4 or Xbox One under the TV and can build your own custom gaming PC quicker than it takes most people to assemble an Ikea book shelf - but after it’s done, you’ll get to play on it only once a week.


Sounds about right, if not the age. Loving Catwoman there BTW... and the quiz is quite funny if you know about games.

Mostly C. My gaming age is 45 which I guess it's closer to my actual age than 25 is. This makes me sad. Mind you there were a couple that I was just making a vague stab at.

45 too. which I'm perfectly happy with - I play games and that's the age I am, if you think there's anything wrong with that you can piss off.

Mostly A
Your gaming age is 15. You know exactly what’s going, whether it’s the latest Call of Duty or the most obscure new smartphone puzzler. Your finger would be on the pulse of digital entertainment - if it wasn’t already on the screen of your Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge.

I wouldnt necessarily agree with that. Up until i moved house, I would game on my PS3, my iphone and on my PC. Since the move, i'm mostly on my iphone now. I've missed the last two iterations of CoD, having been someone who played CoD daily for a few years.

Your gaming age is 45. It seems like only yesterday that all your mates were piling around after last orders to play Wipeout and Tekken on that giant widescreen TV that used to take up most of your living room. But that wasn’t yesterday, it was 20 years ago, and although you could still comfortably pick out Lara Croft in a police line-up, you’re now mature enough to look her directly in the eye.

The bit about Lara Croft is accurate, unless it's the new version, then it's just another computer generated, generic female character, which I guess is progress.

Mostly D, I'm apparently 20 years older than I thought I was! :lol:

Your gaming age is 65. You dimly recall the original video game boom of the early 1980s - wasn’t there a yellow chap who got chased everywhere by ghosts? Anyway, you lost touch with games after your school got rid of its BBC Microcomputer and have only just rediscovered them thanks to accidentally installing Candy Crush Saga on to your flashy new phone, which otherwise remains a constant source of mystery and frustration.

That's actually reasonably accurate, except that I've never had a giant TV. I am 45 though, and my last gaming session was a little over 12 hours ago.

I would say reasonable

Mostly A - 15 - which is bizarre. The first question was a problem for me as, really, they were either too modern, OR just not precise enough. First gaming experience was a friend’s Atari 2600, and I wanted one.

Most of those answers don't apply to me
