videogame wars Video Game Stats: Who Wins in Console Wars and Other Neat Jargon!

So there you have it folks it is Wii or Die! I am truly shocked that the average age of gamers is between 18-49, and that the best selling game of all time is Wii Sports. Well, maybe not as surprised because even the old folks in Century Village in Florida are  wii bowling to their hearts content, they must have finally been tired from all the love making. Oh yes, I did not forget that lil’ tid bit of news, though I wish I had.  Also 2 out of 5 gamers are females, Yahoo! I thank Wii fit for that one, a lot  of Cougars are loving getting fit in the comfort of their own home as they get ready before a night out on the prowl. Either way pretty informative, yet disturbing.

Thinking of where gaming started and where we are today…I don’t know… I’ll give you their list and let you decide.

1. Pong (1975)

Obviously I have to agree with this, I mean come on you pretty much can compare this to Ford’s 1908 Model T!

2. Pac-Man (1980)

Ok while I’ll agree  this should be on the list I personally liked Ms. Pac-Man way better.  Notice the Ms.  salutation, I guess we’ll really never know if she and Pac-Man got married.
