19, i think.
I turn 20 in Feb, i think.
Anyways what i do know is that i play computer games (games if you dont referre the Amiga as computer) since about 13 years. I still have my Amiga 500 (too bad its screen is broken ) and know still all games i have played back then. Games like Speedball (still best sport game ) Mad TV, Turrican, or Pirates! and i could go on, if i count the amiga games i would say i have now around 250 computer games, i lost count back at the day from my first PC games.
It was funny when the PC of my sister a P1 70 Mhz was too good for Wing Commander 1, i could not play it, it always feeled like you would be in Warp speed . Thought games have been simpler that days, hardly any game from this days has made such much fun like the games from that game. If someone hasnt lifed throught that time, he doesnt know what quality means by computer games. Still after years of playing they dont get boring. Wish a game of these days would have again this effect on me.
Despide that fact that i played computer games already that early on, i was always more mature then the people in my age. Thats why i hardly found friends in my age. I always got better along with the friends of my older brother and sister. Which is kinda funny, you would think such a computer game nerd like me would be absolute childish.
Fact is i learned from computer games english (no way the school here had could teach me it that well) i am better in it now than in german.
Like from Pirates i learned that the guys from Holland are called dutch in english . That game playing was funny, i absolute had no idea (i couldnt english that days) what you must do in that game, yet i played it for months.

Approx 7,389,836,580 earth seconds.
If anyone can figure out the day I was born I'll be highly impressed.
EDIT: sorry, 735,826,260
I aged myself about 200 and odd years then. O_o
