You actually can become too old for games. Though that has to do with sensory loss more than being old in and of itself.
Most video games today are akin to farmville and random action/puzzle games of light difficulty: casual experiences aimed at young people, people who don't seek immersion in their entertainment, and people who are just bored and looking for something random to do. Games aimed at a 'mature audience' that have a story worth playing through could even die out given the much higher cost of production and the reletively 'niche' group of people who would buy them (when compared with the "games" like farmville that can be produced a dime a dozen with less effort, more net revenue, and fewer/cheaper investors). I'm not saying that this will happen anytime soon, but things seem to be trending in that direction as gaming becomes more mainstream (which I suppose is to be expected).
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
