My vote is my generation (early to mid 20's) we got to see the evolution of gaming going from primarily 2D, and now to full spectrum 3D. That and gaming actually MEANT something to us growing up, unlike now where 10 year olds are spamming games like CoD, and trolls and flamers are rampant everywhere arguing about what games are the best because they have no social life or real-life convictions... (the same can be said about music, and/or culture in general).
PS. I have more respect for the person the older they are as a gamer, 1. they created gaming as we know it 2. We will eventually get older, and I definitely see myself playing well into my 100's!
