Speculation - In college or a younger professional under 40


Bioware, can you chime in? You probably have the statistics for demographics


Edit - im 24.  Getting laid off from my engineering job a few months ago, has, ironically been an absolute boon for my gaming life

I am 43 and have been gaming since Atarii 2600 consoles, i was the Bi-plane champion in my house. I had this move where i could hug the edges of the screen, if you hugged the left edge you popped out on the right side of the screen it was good for quick get aways and confusing my opponents. Ahh simplicity at its best.

25, which to my surprise is actually quite young for a video game forum. So for that I have to thank all you old geezers out there for making me feel good. :P

We've had a couple of grandparents posting here, though I don't know their actual ages.

I am 34.



The general consensus is that the average age for gamers is 35 and for certain games like Civilization is about 40. This should come as no surprise because it was in the late 80's that gaming started to become popular.

I'm 17.

I've been gaming since I was 6. Initially it was RTS games like Age of Empires and such. I moved to first person games when I was about ten. I used to love Thief and Unreal Tournament, as well as Jedi: Outcast (although that can also be 3rd person), and even Fire Warrior. It wasn't until I was about 14 that I switched to console gaming. I like the feel of a controller better than a mouse and keyboard, and it certainly fits my extremely tight gaming budget a little better than PC gaming. I stuck to FPS games though (Halo is still one of the most awesome games ever in my book; it's the reason I got an Xbox 360 in the first place). Anyway, I didn't like RPGs until I discovered a little game called KotOR last year, and that's when I fell in love with BioWare. Mass Effect and Dragon Age are now two of my favorite games!

I think most RPG gamers, including Dragon Age players, tend to be a little older than myself, in the range on 25-35 and beyond. Gamers nowadays seem to have shorter attention spans than older generations, and RPGs are too long for them. They're perfect for me though; I only have to buy a game every 6 months or so. :)

And too bad us 360 players got the short straw when it comes to Dragon Age's graphic quality, though PS3 users aren't too far off.

A typical gamer should be anywhere between the age you learn to use a keyboard to the day you leave this place.

I should be about right in the middle of the scale.
