Women Over 40 Biggest Online Gamers

Posted by simoniker on Wednesday February 11, 2004 @04:29AM from the lies-and-damned-statistics dept.

Ooby writes "MSNBC and Reuters are reporting that women over 40 are the biggest online gamers, according to a study conducted by AOL. What's even more interesting than being outnumbered by middle aged and older women is this: 'More than a quarter of those women, the survey found, play their favorite games between midnight and 5 a.m. Women in the poll tended to favor word and puzzle games.' I thought that was prime time for FPS kids."
