This is a fallacy and too broad a statement.

While in some cases a younger player might have quicker response times, age and treachery will overcome youth and enthusiasm every time. Also, not every "younger player" has skilz - most are drones

I think you'd be perfect for giving pep talks to kids with low self-esteem.

I was one of those kids, troll, in the 60s. Most of my peers are drones (they were all Hippies full of Love and "aren't we just the best"). And I can prove the adage that I quoted.

As for your comment, I was in the service and led several young men and women who had low self esteem. Always to their success - many went on to eclipse my own career as officers (I was a Warrant Officer). So, I think I know what I am talking about while you engaged your mouth without making sure your brain was in gear first.

Kids over the past 20 years have NOT been told that there are winners and losers - everybody wins? That is total BS - nobody wins all the time.

I think you might be overreacting a bit here.

That's a little preumptuous there; you're not the only gamer here. From the sounds of it, especially how you say "b4-2000" like that was a long time ago (lol...),

i know its not. but everybody now adays think that if a game was made before like 2 years ago that it instantly has bad graphics and completely sucks hard, people even say that halo: combat evolved has terrible graphics, im just trying to make a point that im into older games

[guardian wolf]

It's not the graphics that kills gaming for me, it's the gameplay. I could care less about graphics, as long as they are reasonable. When I heard Cry Engine three, I thought that was over the top, but hell, I would have been fine with something a small step above MW4.
