The (Mobile) Games Women Play
"A new study shows that women are mobile gamers more than men. Is it really all that surprising? The Yankee Group came out today with their "gender stereotype bending" study saying that women are bigger mobile gamers than men. Apparently, 58% of mobile gamers are women. While that seems surprising to some, it really doesn't go against most other findings either."
The truth is out. Men may like to talk about games and brag about their gaming skills. But in the real world, Women can influence the mobile games market more than men. Are you surprised? I am not. I rarely play any games on my phone. Hey! I have internet access. Why play when I can be better informed. But my friend likes to borrow my Smartphone (or Pocket PC) every now and then, so that she can play Jawbreaker and Tetris. And it gets better. At home I have an XBox and XBox Live subscription, but what do I play on it in the dual player mode - Tetris! And you can guess the reason why. What are your experiences and thoughts on this subject?
