Been listening to the podcast for as long as i can remember but never really enter the forum jungles, So hi guys 

Im Matt Pinyoun (Pronounced Pinyun) Age: 16

I love all things gaming and my first game i owned was GTA at the perfect age of five and its basically what i did. I used to love big games of timesplitters (which needed me to whip out the multitap) and playing Fahrenheit over and over.

As i grew up i shelled out over £400 for my PS3 on launch spent most of my time playing games of Rainbow Six.

 

However lately ive fallen out with gaming.  My PS3 gathers dust. My xbox is mainly for talking to mates. I used to be so up-to-date with the industry but lately ive lost my interest. Which saddens me cry

 

And if im not watching tv/film im listening to music smile

 

Biscuit of Choice = Oreo or Classic Digestive (Its hard to choose)

 

Keep up the great podcast/site now im off to look about the forum

 

Thanks

And a massive welcome to you PnyounPad!

 

Glad to see that you made it from out of those pesky shadows and in to the bright, brilliant light that is the Midlife Forums. Its a nice and extermly friendly place so please, make yourself at home. Put your feet up even.

 

Tis a shame that your gaming mofo has gone soft my man.. Do you think that because there aren't any games that your enjoying or simply because you growing up and other things (*cough..boobies..cough*) might be coming into play?

 

You should join in some community nights.. We'll cheer you up and get your gaming-greed back.

 

If you have any questions, give me or any other Community Manager a shout.

Thanks guys. i would love to play Borderlands but sold it a while back. It was one of the last games i got every achievement on i think so if i see it dirt cheap i may pick it up again. 

As for losing my 'mojo' it may be the long games drought we've had or its….. oooooo boobies

 

See you about the forums!

Welcome!
I too had fallen out with gaming BIG TIME over the past 8-9 months, maybe more. During that time I tried to play crysis 2 when it was released and I just couldn't get into it. I think I played it for 1 hour and afterwards I just thought I was finished with it completely.
But 2 weeks ago I somehow managed to get back into it and started playing deus ex, and now I'm hooked again!

HO HO!

 

Welcome along buddy, I think you may have just took the mantle of the youngest MidlifeMember……and for that i salute you.

 

You got plenty of time though buddy zo fret not will falling out with gaming. I had the same thing when i was about your age and trust me when i say, when it comes back, its all gravy.

 

If your a social kind of chap then make sure to check out the multiplayer forums as theres always plenty going on. Theres been a great resurgence of Gears of War 2 on a friday night and BF:BC2 seems to be getting some love as of late.

 

Hope you enjoy your stay and if its not already been said, should you need anything give me or one of the other communiy managers a shout. We're here to help.

 

thumbs-up

 

You're so wise… Like a minature Buddha covered in hair!

Brownie I'm shocked that was a bit risqué for you you're usually the well mannered stoical one amongst us all, the one who bites his tongue and never gets involved in any controversy.  Lol.  I like the new bad boy image.  Ha ha.  rofl

 

Welcome young Matt I can see we're gonna have to watch you closely in case you lead Brownie astray.  Lmao.  There is a cure for your gaming lull you know, it involves an evening with your mic on having a laugh whilst dicking about in a multiplayer game with some of us so called grown ups….go on you know want to.  Preferably without any references to doing my mam. Seriously though have a look at the Multiplayer thread and see if anything takes your fancy and get online and hook up with a few.  Its well good fun.  smile

Welcome aboard the good ship Midlife Gamer Matt!

Very sorry for not posting up an hello earlier than this…trying to catch up now all this Eurogamer stuff is out of the way.

 

Nice to see some young blood on here…can you be our reference for all things ‘youth’ related?

Do you speak all urban and shit, innit, y’get me?

 

Joking aside, have you got back into gaming now? You say you lost interest in the industry…I find it comes in peaks and troughs…currently heading for a peak I think!

 

You also mention that you watch movies and listen to music….given that, whats your favorite music video – never mind what the song is…whats the accompanying video that hits the spot?

 

Laters (is that what you kids say these days?) wink
