I'm not as good gaming on average because there's always some interruption, but 
I'm better at the Street Fighter series than I've ever been. My grown kid is 
trying to get me to join some of the local competitions for a $5K prize.

I'd say my twitch reflexes are as good as ever.

I think you're right, it comes down to grown ups have things to do other than 
play 15 hours out of the day.

  I've noticed I get wrecked in FPS games a lot more than I did when I was 
younger, but I attributed that more to having a job, wife and kids and not 
spending 16 hours a day on the weekend playing Counter Strike..

    That doesn't mean someone is going to be become bad at a game at 24, though.
