I don't think I'd stop gaming until I can no longer push the buttons on my consoles.Truly though, it depends on the person, and what they feel is right. Some people give up gaming as soon as they exit their teens even.

I enjoy playing games because it is a form of entertainment imo, and will play on forever.

I think if your still in school playing games can be distracting because, it may bring down your grades as your not concentrating on school. But then again, sometimes it can be good as you do learn from games, and sometimes if you are lucky then you might become a game designer.

Things such as disablities that would make playing practically impossible aside, I'd say never. As long as you enjoy it, then go ahead. There are still some thirty-year-old gamers out there.

47Just kidding. Unless you lose interest, there is no age where you're too old to play. Videogames should be enjoyable for anyone just like movies and books. Granted, as they are now, they're not really made at a level sophisticated enough for everyone to enjoy, I think. But there's no reason it should be a medium dedicated only to teenage boys. I like that Wii is expanding the market, and I think in the future that there will be more kinds of games that older people can play and get into.

Why should one have to stop? If one still enjoys I see no reason to stop gaming at any age...

it is not good for ur health it causes stupidity.

It is not good for your health, it causes stupidity.To answer the question, I'd say never, but I also say don't play too much, it can get in the way of more important matters. But in one play-through I say you should definitely stop playing after 3-4 hours straight.

NEVER. There is no age where one should stop playing games. They're fun not only for yourself but can be fun for others too. Heck I just saw a report where Doctors are actually recommending the Nintendo Wii for the elderly. It keeps them active and helps them maintain range of motion and they too can have fun with it. So, I say as long as one lives never stop gaming.

Keep playing until you lose the ability to move all parts of your body. Legs can be trained for playing, and spectacles are your best friend...

Nowadays they make games for every age group from Children to seniors (special thanks to the wii). So the answer is : as long as they interest you.
