My experience with PSN is that nobody has a mic. I can't really tell what the douche level is. On the 360, I'm sure it's much higher, but the only games I played online were TF2, which didn't have that many people, and Battlefield 1943, in which for some reason nobody ever talked.
I think this is bad news as it indicates that the minority knows how to yell REALLY LOUDLY!!!
Honestly though, isn't everyone only two steps away from being a psychopathic teenager?

I fit all those criteria including the age, I find that kind of creepy. Either that or Im the only person who uses the PSP for PSN.
but i'm 27! oh well, got a few more months till 28 so, fuck the pii, fuck the 3fixme, fuck the bsi, fuck the engage and fuck you. ps3 rules and always have, umm yeah, you can feel it. now i must go jack the nut and smoke my purple berry diesel.
Interesting.
Isn't the average game in his mid to late 20s? That part isn't surprising. I guess the educated part comes from it being the, until recently, most expensive system choice.

"PS3 fanboys generally come across as emotionally retarded 14-year-olds with severe learning disabilities and a crippling dependency on the validity of a hunk of plastic as a means of proving their own worth."
And Xbox fanboys don't fit this criteria either? lol

Thanks for the love man, funny thing is I am a a PSN user and also born in the year of the rat, go figure.
I don't find this too suprising really... considering the price of the PS3 up until now has been nothing short of outrageous! And who else could afford a PS3 other than people who are gainfully employed?? But that's about to change I suspect with the latest price drop about to go into effect... so I hope you Sony fanboys enjoyed your respite from the mainstream - because they are a comin and they will blow this demographic to peices!
annndd how did Eric come across this data? voluntary polls? any 15 year old boy is going to state they're mature, self reliant, and have lots GFs - they have to have an alibi to straight-face click "i am over 18" to get into pR0n sites.
In two more years I'll be old enough to be average, but I don't think I'll ever be smart enough to smart.
Good thing I'm pretty.

Maybe they have older users because it makes a whole lot of sense in terms of age. Most PS3 users I would gather were once PS1 users, which would mean they were pretty young when they began using the console. However, it doesn't in the least mean that they are more mature. I think anybody is prone to acting like a douchebag, no matter the console you're using. Even then, it also depends what game you're playing, but that's a whole different topic.
I'm 20 years old female in college and trying to become a teacher. Don't have much money, but I always thought most gamers would be from ages 15 to early 20s.
And xbox user act better? ya Right! I find my online jots seem to be with more educated and polite players on the PS3 as with Live i find it the total apposite. But I don't headline blogs about it. I am sure many will disagree with me on this fact, but it is the truth.
Jim, are you implying that not all console war fanboys are emotionally retarded 14-year-olds with severe learning disabilities and a crippling dependency on the validity of a hunk of plastic as a means of proving their own worth?
I remember my one experience with Xbox live. It ruined any chance of me enjoying voice chat in online gaming. EVER. How do they calculate how smart they are? Do they watch them or something?
In non-news today, director of PSN operations Eric Lempel says that statistically PSN owners are model hot and smart as a whip, and their piss cures leprosy.
In other non-news, The Pope says statistically Catholics are the best people ever, and make Mary Poppins look like Hitler.
Stay tuned at 11 to find out fat kids' statistics about cake.

which proves also that the ps3 collective are probably a LOT stronger and would easily beat the 360 gang in a fist fight.
How did you turn that article into that? I just can't seem to trust you anymore... There was nothing about having a girlfriend and being educated does NOT mean that his smart.
As an editor sir, you should work to keep it less biased... I don't get how your still holding on to that job.

I fit this stat almost exactly. So does this mean when Sony does something shitty on their consoles, they are basically telling me and my brethren that they hate us?
Sadly enough, my personal vote would be for the latter. I work in a game store, and I see quite a few young men come in with attractive girlfriends/wives, well dressed, who then revert into crazy fanboy mode and spout whatever Sony Defense Force-esque mantra happens to be popular at that point. They'll randomly proselytize at people in the store (including to stadd) with misinformation or just plain wrong information, and its really quite annoying. It's just such a bizarre scene and its very common. It's just a whole otherwise very respectable group which just turns into crazy mode when they get on a specific topic.
It's really bad when you're trying to sell someone a PS3 and one of these closet fanboys come in and start talking to the customer and crazy up the place. The actual customer gets creeped out and loses interest. Funny how that works in REAL life as opposed to the internet.

Sony: The average PSN user is male, 28, smart and has a girlfriend!
MS: The average xbox live user is male, 26, smarter and has 2 girlfriends!
Nintendo: The average Wii Online user is your grandmother, 99, smart enough to buy a second controller and no boyfriend... but has 4 kids so they can play Brawl to pieces so it's all good!
PC: The average internet user is an asshole!

My experience with the psn for about a year now throw this right out the window, if its not high pitched retarded ape kids then it's 'hard' chav men putting on deep voices and just saying fuck off to everyone that doesnt talk like them. Thank god xbox live is free of th.......wait...no
It's okay, now that the price of the PS3 has gone down the Americans will start buying it & the average IQ will start to drop.
Isn't that why the 360 average is so low. It's the customers that highlight the average, & most 360 customers are from the U.S.
Guess they were wrong about the maturity (I never claimed to be average or even normal), after all I own a PS3 & just made the above comments...whoops a donkey!

Why can't this be true? The only people I know who own the console besides myself are all older people with money.
Ya know, the kind of money that makes buying a 600 dollar console an easy decision.
And I'm sure most parents would choose a 360 or Wii for their teenage or younger children based on cost alone, at least before the price cut.
I could believe this.

I have a degree, but I'm not what I would call smart all the time... I am over 28... and I am in a high income bracket thanks to my urber smart wife. I think I fail, in a sort of Win kinda way.
The average Xbox Live user, on the other hand, is 12 and thinks that you're a faggot.
Hahahah, I lol'd.
Hahahah, I lol'd.
That is my exact description. But I'm with Gamadaya, not having a mic by default made it hard to find other people with mics.
I have a PSN account, I'm male, 31, and have my associate,s and bachelor's degree in computer science! I iz ejemecated!
From the people I meet online, I'd say that those demographics are generally about right... though I know a lot of women who game, but they game on their spouse's PS3 unit. The unit might be primarily owned by men in that demographic, but it seems that often their wives, sisters, girlfriends and even sons/daughters also game on the PS3 unit.
I'm 26, educated with a decent salary. So are most of the folk on my friends list I guess.
I loved Kaden101's comment. I wonder what the averages are for the wii. I'm guessing 35-year old women with 3 games (Wii Sports, Wii Fit and Mario Kart).

I wouldn't doubt that for a minute, and this just might be my fanboy talking.
28 Years of Age: Makes sense since most kids wouldn't have the proper allowance let-alone approval to purchase a, then, $599 home entertainment system. Although, this number might start to drop since the price cut will give my age-range users an opportunity to finally purchase it.
Decent Income: Makes sense that someone who has a decent job and makes a decent amount would have absolutely no problem paying whatever it takes to have a full HD gaming entertainment experience. Although, this number might drop as well since less expensive, more accessible, PS3 Slims were announced recently.
Well Educated: Well... I might be going on a limb here, but anyone who pays a little extra cash for something that's MORE than worthwhile, and that's fully equipped to keep you entertained for years to come without the fear of crashing and breaking down on you... that sounds like the purchase of a well educated man to me.
Just saying...
