What I'm meaning is that I have both a PS3 & Wii, & have some knowledge of the gaming systems.

On my PS3 I have Dante's Inferno, GTA IV, GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, God of War Collection, & Ninja Gaiden Sigma. All have an ESRB-Rating of M.

Depending on the training the store associates have, they should automatically ask for ID when picking up M-rated games. The 2 stores I normally pick up my games from always ask for my ID when I have picked up an M-Rated game.

I have found on occasion an AO-Rated game at Walmart & GameStop.

Rockstar Games had to re-release the game without the mod and get re-rated an M before retailers would sell the game again). Some will even go so far as to restrict sales of M rated games to minors.

Xbox 360 guy here...a majority of the games I have besides sports games are rated M games. I'm actually shocked that you found a game rated AO at Walmart. That's selling the equivalent of an X-rated movie!

Okay, that's enough off-topic for me.

Either way what I said stands. The majority of the people that use have an account are older. Maybe I should do an SPSS Crosstab.

Older? You consider over 26 older?

I need to get out my walker. Get off my lawn! It hurts when I pee!

There is a difference between older and being old. Older than the age group he originally gave for sure.

Since you said that "older" people are 34+ (late 30s), you would be wrong. 63% are 34 and under, while the other 37% are 35+.

If you do not use Facebook I doubt you know what SPSS is.
