The Women's Game Conference shines a light on the question of why 88.5 percent of video gamers are male. Possible answer: only 11.5 percent of that demographic has girlfriends.

Actually, according to the article, the 88.5% number referred to programmers, not players.

Still, absolutely freakin' hilarious zinger!

Quit with the doggerel, will you?

I knew Jam Master Jay, and you, Mr. Sanchez, are no JMJ.

By contrast, I'll still be rhymin when I'm in your hymen.

RE: 88.5%

That was an interesting article... The market is definitely glutted with testosterone titles. Yet titles with wider appeal (Sims, Myst) are top sellers. I wonder why there's such a disconnect there.

Beware the "If a few are really profitable, a lot will still be really profitable" fallacy....
