36 here, which puts me pretty much in the middle of the age group here.

I am almost 350 in dog years and some days I feel every one of those years.

My first sub sim was an antisub sim (and the term sim is used very liberally) called Code Name Sector

http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/2...de-name-sector

Anyone else remember that one? I thought this was the greatest game ever. And it had a "computer" ohhhhh

I have fond memories of Gato, Sub battle and Silent Service. Boy these games were the bestest when they first came out huh?

I missed out on a lot of the early ones as I never had any of the "game machines".

Ahh the memories

I think he was referring to my gaming prediliction, not my age. Rebel already pointed out that he has several years on me.

54. This would be very interesting if we had a poll to compare the different age group sizes on SubSim.

He says that even hardcore flight sims and wargames appeal more to teens.
So please tell me your age, I want to know if this is true
I'm 15 by the way
I think you need to define 'old'.
