This is incredibly impressive for her age. I think we as a society are guilty of assuming that the older generation is not engaged in gaming culture as they did not grow up with it, or at least in the same way as we did with increased opportunities.

When I read the title of this article I expect the message to be twisted and rearranged, but it seems as though she plays for hours every day. It is really incredible and age is just a number.

I think it is a good sign that people of all ages can experience the life. This way many people who have regrets in old age are going to have a better time. We have to ecourage more old people on doing things which they can't or think they cant and if they do it and feel good that's life worth living.

There will be more and more coming. I mean, can you ever see not gaming?

In past it was not. People used to judge each other on the basis of what they watch. Imagine people used to think animation is for only kids before hentai and anime ccame into their nations. Now a days people know there is an animation for all age grounds. Time takes the healing.
