Not surprising if accurate. Right age range for when they exploded, and can freely spend money on them. Hell, my mom is in her 60s and kills the **** out of Tetris.

I'm not sure if it's 35, but that is certainly closer than what a lot of people think.  I know the average is definitely well within the adult range.  It's just that people that don't know better assume it's still just kids playing.  

It's similar to comic books.  A lot of people think it's kids reading them, but the average is somewhere in the 30s[/quote]

I'm 29. 
I started gaming on the NES and never stopped.
You have to rember that we're at the point where at least one generation has grown up since gaming became  popular.

Unbelievable how the gaming press first started to bash us, and yet the respectable news sites are all on our side. Says quite a bit about how much gaming journalists care more about the free games and advertising than honesty and integrity.

And it's wonderful to see. Absolutely liberating to know that holding the line and not letting illogical and unreasonable endings stay as they are is the right thing to do. Keep it up, men and women.

dumb...all of you people don't even know whats coming up (DLC wise)...so this movement is stupid...all it is...is a bunch of people who are completely immature (I mean who the heck would make a FTC or whatever complaint...over react much?) and seriously impatient..so stupid...

If you live in Canada, Marc Saltzman does a lot of little reviews on gadgets and tech, especially during movie previews lol. Also, they have him review gadgets and whatnot on prominent Canadian news channels, like CTV, for example. Reading his public Linkedin profile, I am quite surprised that he writes for 50 prominent publications, like USA Today and the Toronto Star. http://ca.linkedin.com/in/marcsaltzman

To bad I dont have the upgraded Linkeid, I wouldve email him lol. SO maybe he's our Catalyst!!!!

That's actually correct, i've seen many statistics on it. The vast majority are in their 30's, second i think is late 20's, and then i think 40's is in third. I've seen some with 40's in second place. Most female gamers are older too. Kids are actually a minority in gaming, it's a fallacy to state "games are for kids" in our era. Infact i'd say most kids these days lack the patience to stay in one spot long enough to game for any prolonged period. Kids are really hyper afterall, and gaming is more of a "cooling down" activity.

Why does it matter what is coming up DLC wise?  Unless it is the ending that we are demanding, we could give a rat's ass.  You mean we could get some more multiplayer stuff?  Or maybe a new squad member that we can pick up before we go to talk to the star child?  Maybe some new armor, guns, and appearance packs so we can look different talking to star brat?  How would ANY of that alleviate the problem at hand?  You call us dumb?  Our movement stupid?

If we get the ending we want in DLC, our movement has succeeded.  A common military phrase, "if it's stupid, but it works, then it is not stupid"

HOLD THE LINE!

Um, FTC is a valid consumer tool. You put those complaints into the FTC if your refrigerator from SEARS is not what they sold to you. It is not a class action lawsuit, learn your consumer rights. 

Also, thanks for being an immature troll. 


*edit* Also... I'm sad you don't even know what the FTC is. The state of education today *cries*

Not with this on CNN... matter of fact I bet some phone calls went out as soon as the  piece aired. Its is not going to be a very happy  Monday morning at the  Bioware Office.

It's on the huffingtonpost also.

The man is incorrect, it would not be the first time this is done for a video game- Fallout 3 Broken Steel.

The guy is wrong at the part where he says "The first time in gaming history in gaming history" where DLC changes the ending. He forgot about Prince of Persia (Next Gen).

I think most of the "movemet" only cares for Bioware's reponse in telling us they are working on something about the ending. Yeah, the FTC complaint was bad, I think most of us agree about that. For impatience, maybe. But in my opinion, if they do start development on the DLC/patch ending, it might take some time, so we will need 
patience. I've been reading on other forums that Bioware can't fully respond anyway until the Q1 fiscal is up, so March 31st. Until then, we have to be patient if we wont this to work, but that doesnt mean we forget. Hold the line!
