This short clip on BBC News introduces 86-year-old Hilda Knott, who's been playing games for 40 years to keep her mentally active. The giant 65" screen helps with her eyesight.

But the fact that she's playing Grand Theft Auto IV, and more surprisingly Disgaea 4—a niche Japanese tactical-RPG on a Super Slim PS3—makes everything really confusing. Too bad we cannot really see her collection next to the TV.
