Hey VGC aka Dave,
I luv reading your reviews for old Atari 2600 games and the current consoles. Almost all of your reviews for the 2600 and the lost art of the arcade resemble mine almost to a T. Playing Defender at the convenience store, etc. I am 42. Do you mind revealing your age?

Well said.....

I too feel many of Dave's comments and reviews capture the essence of gaming at home, the arcade or the local 7-11 in the 1980's (I'm 40).  This site has also been a great point of reference in helping me see what I missed out on the first time around.  Thanks to Ebay & Atari2600.com I was able to catch up.

I am 43.  It's a great age because I've been able to enjoy every generation of games and watch the technology evolve.

I didn't realize you were a full 3 years older than me!  For some reason I thought we were the same age almost exactly.

I was wondering your age too. Im 41, and just like with Star Wars, I guess we all think we were the perfect age to experience ol school games. Ya, VGC, Ill admit, Im a big fan of yours, just like that other guy said how he identifies with your experience with arcade games, Im feeling your humor and writing style too. That said, DONT WORRY, I LIKE CHICKS!

I'm 18, born in 1993, and about to go to college next month. I'm fortunate to have grown up in the N64 days, as well as the generation after that. My fondest moment was Christmas of 2010 where I got Kirby's Epic Yarn, DKC Returns, Sonic Colors, Geometry Wars Galaxies, and Wii Fit Plus. So awesome.

I may be older than I think, since I have JURY DUTY THIS AUGUST!!! WTF is going on?
