    As long as you think it's fun why should you worry about small things like this? Most of the people that I look up to here aren't really kids. They are people with their own families and jobs and shit.

    If you're wondering, I'm 20. About to turn 21 next week.

    But okay, I've been playing the Skate-series ever since the demo of Skate 1 came out. Ever since then I've been hooked. I've been doing this filming/editing-thing for about 2,5 years. None of my RL-friends really gets it, but this fakeskating-thing has given me so much.

    So keep riding, keep filming as long as you have that little free space in your life. But remember, real life comes first

    I am 38. Love to play Skate with a passion. Film/Edit a little bit. I still skate in real life as well.
    However, I think you are too old to be doing these things, so you should quit and concentrate on school.

    ^ pretty much summed it all up.
    I'm 25 and I quit skateboarding in 05 after 11 years of skating.. so like m7419 said, fakeskating is the next best thing for me.

    I don't think playing videos games is childs play. For me, it's like having something to do when killing time when i'm bored or something. I might even play games just to relax after a rough day, where others might read a book.

    I enjoy reading as well. I can't imagine coming home to a wife and having to deal with her everyday (no disrespect to all the married men out there).

    I'm old and I've grown up with an interest in computer games and skateboarding, and I deffo don't have any plans to stop at the moment.

    I've always been in to video editing and graphic design, and skate allows me to indulge both of those interests, plus i've met a ton of nice people online from playing skate.

    I missed this comment. It's the same for me, none of my friends understand my fascination I have with the skate series. Whenever any of them have attempted to get into it, they try to play it like a tony hawks game, and generally complain its too hard. lol.
