As I suspected PS3 appeals to the older gamer 360 and Wii to younger (link)

"Xbox 360 ranked best with 35-44 year olds, with the PS3 showing a marked jump with the next-older group. "

"PlayStation 3 owners skew the oldest of all three consoles - with appeal at its highest levels to those 44 and older" -- You know what this tells me? Blu Ray only. How many 44+ you think are playing video games? Probably 10-20% if that. Thanks for the proof.

I agree when watch Wall-E last night, I happen to notice during the adds when they did the add for Blue Ray movies. They kept saying you can play it on the PS3.

Either way if you go to the stats page that has a lot of interesting stats on it, http://www.smrb.com/uploads/XboxPlayStationDownload_06.23.08.pdf my age group 25-34 PS3 does the best. I also like the internet/computer a lot and PS3 people said they like it more than Xbox360 people. PS3 people also said they care a lot more about Nature and Recycling (I share those opinions), And PS3 owners are more likely to read newspapers and watch TV in the morning (morning news)
