This is definately an age thing. The average age of a gamer (according to the most recent poll) is 34 years. I'm 37, married with an 11 year old daughter. I'm a teacher and my students love that I'm a gamer. Problem is they want to play online with me I dont; I hear them all day as it is! Your priorities change and you want more down time/me time as you get older. Gaming is an escape for me. I control the parameters. It seems that the average gaming age supports the findings of the online poll. As the average gamer age is sure to rise over time I wonder if online gaming will ever get much more popular than it is now....
