Hi. We meet again in here.
Same question from me. How are you guys? How is it going? Is it a hard day or a good day for you? Haha :-) I would like to show you that games is not limited to certain age. You can play until your last breath. LoL.
Ok, let's start the show now. This is a copied from Dailymail UK. Credit to them for this article.
THE OLDEST GAMER IN THE WORLD?
A 78-year-old grandmother who queued past midnight to get her hands on the latest Call of Duty game this week is staking her claim to being Britain’s oldest gamer. It might be a pastime that keeps most teenage boys glued to their computer screens - but pensioner Doreen Fox says she can’t get enough of ultra violent video games. Ms Fox spends hours on end playing on her XBox in her one-bedroom flat in Dudley in the West Midlands.
Widowed Ms Fox says she loves the thrill of the bloodthirsty violence of the controversial Call of Duty games - but admits sometimes she often 'shoots the wrong man.'
She first started playing computer games on her grandson Gareth’s Nintendo in the 80’s where she mastered the likes of Super Mario Brothers.
And Ms Fox and Gareth, 32, are still gaming together almost three decades later.
On Monday night the pair queued for three hours to get their hands on the latest ‘Call of Duty: Ghosts’ game at Merry Hill Shopping Centre, Brierley Hill, West Midlands.

The retired cleaner, whose husband Dennis died 11 years ago, said: 'I just love the violence of it - it keeps me focused, I don’t like to sit still. 'I suffered two strokes in 2008 and things like this keeps me on my toes.'When you’re playing the games you’re on the edge of your seat. 'They are really realistic - its amazing how they make them.'It’s like playing a Hollywood movie. 'Whenever I play, I play my grandson, but I don’t think I have ever beat him. 'I’m not as quick as I used to be. 'I always shoot the wrong man or point the gun at a tree instead - but I don’t mind, I enjoy it anyway. 'My neighbours and other relatives look at me gone out - they say what are you playing that for? 'God knows what the neighbours think when they can hear bombs and gun noises coming from my little flat. Ms Fox, who also enjoys knitting and gardening, says she is also partial to playing Grand Theft Auto - widely regarded as the most violent games of all time. She added: 'I don’t understand the controversy behind all these games - they are not half fun.
'Don’t get me wrong, I’d never go around battering people with my handbag - I’m not a criminal. 'But you really lose yourself in them. 'I can’t imagine there’s many people my age playing computer games as much as me. 'The Call of Duty series has already made more than £5 billion worldwide. Sales of the game’s predecessor Call of Duty: Black Ops II sold 2.6 million copies in the UK in 2012, making it the country’s best selling entertainment release of the year. But bosses at developer Infinity Ward warned initial sales could be slower this time around as gamers waited for new consoles to be released later this month.
Hundreds of stores across the UK opened On Monday for the release of the tenth version in the franchise called Call of Duty: Ghosts. The latest Call of Duty video game made more than $1bn (£621m) from its first day on sale, its publisher has confirmed.

We do think that no matter who we are, whether we old or young but we deserve to have our own hobby. Age is not a restriction but habit have it limitation. Understand? keep on supporting this lady. It's a very rare case and what is your feeling if your grandmother happen to be some sort like her? :-)
