An article in my newspaper reported the results of a study on gamers.
Of 7000 players involved in the study 6.6% were teens, 37 were in their 30s. Gamers aceraging 23 hours of play a week were 10% leaner than the average American who said they exercised vigorously, and 22% of gamers are obese.
Gamers in general are 20% more likely to become addicted to something, and 50% more likely to become depressed.
An female gamers are far more "intense". A female gamer will log more hours than a male and become more strongly tied with the gamer community.
"They're more satisfied, dedicated, and get more out of gaming." -My newspaper.
Just something interesting I thought.
The stereotype of gamers is dead. Gaming is no loner a "young man's game".*es a young man* We're on average healthier than the rest of America and girls involved in gaming are are 1337 warriors that kick mucho ass.
