People from all walks of life play, though younger adults are far more likely to play than seniors, proof that video games are mainstream entertainment for the generations that grew up with them. In all, 81 per cent of respondents between 18 and 29 said they play games, compared with 23 per cent of people 65 and older.
Another Pew survey this fall found that nearly every teenager — 97 per cent — is a gamer.

A surprising finding in Pew's report was the discrepancy between the education levels of gamers and non-gamers. While video games may not make you smarter, a college education means you're more likely to play them. Some 57 per cent of respondents who went to at least some college said they play games, compared with 51 per cent of high school graduates and just 40 per cent of people who have less than a high-school education. Lenhart said there is no obvious reason for the difference.
