    I don't think there have been any studies into it. I think the figures would be more balanced than one might expect, but it just seems that the male gamers seem to be much, much more active on a public stage.

    I would guess 6/1, but that guys are more serious about their video game playing.

    Actually, the ratio is about 50/50. Females tend to not be quite as obsessive about it though.

    About balanced.

    Girls play games. They're just not insane enough to bother getting obsessed with them (in the main).

    But seriously, alot of my friends are gamers but they're not as obsessive as me. I'm guessing the ratio would be 50/50 or maybe 40/60 at the least.

    not to mention you'd have to define: "gamer"

    Does that include every muppet who's ever played tetris? Or do they have to own a console of sorts? Or what about the people who only play stuff like brain age?

    If you never played tetris, then you are not a gamer.

    Hey, you must be my good twin xD.


    Anyway, I actually read somewhere that the ratio is about 50/50. The female to male ratio on a game forum doesn't quite match up to that of the real world.

    Well maybe the ratio of number of people who have played games is 50:50 but if you mean amount of time spent on games I still think about 70:30.

    They weren't ratios, but this was in my paper not too long ago.
    64% Male
    36% Female

    (Those are from memory, but I know they're within one or two percent :).)
    Note: I'm a girl gamer ;).
    you've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?
