After a massive research, NPD Group have come to the result that 44% of the console gamers in the US are female. The research was done with over 20 893 participants. The research shows that 24% are aged between 2 – 12, 20% – 25 to 34 and 17% percent – between 35 and 44 years old. Of course, the preferred console is the Xbox 360. This love for the X360 can only be explained by one thing – the PS3 controller does not include a vibration feature.
This fact leads to a very interesting discussion about girls and gaming, which, unfortunately we’ll have to discuss another time.
btw: The chances of you meeting a hot girl that’s a solid gamer are 1:5000(the chances of a human being getting hit by a lightning). Who knows.. one day..

“the PS3 controller does not include a vibration feature.”
Not true, you can buy PS3 controllers with vibration.
haha.. Harry I think that was a joke
I already get it, I just didn’t know you would tell such a joke.
But it’s still not true.
Game Journalism without humor is like the Prince Of Persia without swords.
But it’s more sexist than a joke.
It’s a joke, deal with it. It was never meant to be sexist or anything like that.
all I know is that I wouldn’t mind that chick to be playing with my joystick with her xbox (is that sexist or a bad joke?
)
Having read this article, I am glad to say I have yet to be struck by lighting, and I HAVE met a cute gamer girl. I beat the odds! Woot! Sure, I may only have had one very short conversation with her as I preordered a game (she was the cashier at GameStop), but it was an actual conversation (not the average consumer-to-clerk small talk). Anyways, the point is I met her, so again, I beat the odds! =P
I know a girl in Texas who is a damn good gamer who plays Brawl, Devil May Cry, also liked Persona, is a roleplayer, and is all kinds of awesome. She played Devil May Cry 4 on Hell or Hell, that’s badass.
Being a role-players isn’t awesome. It’s a sickness. Anyway, you only get the points if you actually succeed in hitting on her.
Haha! I’m dating a cute solid gamer girl! So happy! Games she is playing now:
Gears of War 2, Rainbow Six: Vegas 2, Left 4 Dead and Batman: Arkham Asylum.
