I think that you strongly underestimate the number of gamers over the age of eighteen . There are a vast number of gamers that grew up with nintendo,ps one, n 64or whatever, so chances are if you bought a nintendo when they were first available then you are over eighteen. Online gaming seems only to be a natural progression of gaming. While I do realize younger gamers are huge part of the market, you also have to notice all the effort gone into games targeted towards the older crowd. A great example is nintendo (present day ). They have recieved immense criticism for "childish games" .(ZELDA LUIGI'S MANSION, ) While quality games they may be , time and the market have passed them by. On the other hand there is the huge success of titles such as resident evil, duke nukem,dino crisis, silent hill,and max payne -none of these i am sure were geared toward the younger crowd .One of the ps2's strong points is the diversity of their titles. So i am still unclear as to your point about SOCOM being M ?
