There's an interesting article on Tom's Hardware about the online gaming business and how it's going to explode. Check this out:

"The average age of a gamer is now 28. The video gaming industry (both PC and console-related - hardware and software), at well over US$15 billion, is larger than the movie box office business. Super Mario, the Wall Street Journal reports, has sold more software on the basis of his mustachioed mug than Mel Gibson or Schwarzenneger have sold tickets at the box office."
Even more astounding is that MS intends to spend 2 BILLION dollars promoting online gaming. Far out!
