Social Gaming Brings Families Together
29Apr08
The Nintendo Wii seems to have put the fears of parents to rest. A new study suggests that consoles like the Wii and other causual games are actually bringing families together. There is clearly a market for casual games, yet it’s games like Grand Theft Auto 4 that hog all the headlines. Maybe game developers would be better off creating fun family games instead of chasing the almighty teenage dollar.
The figures suggest that 60 per cent of all parents who have played games in the past six months say that their family now likes to play social games together, rising to 68 per cent for parents with 10 to 15 year-old children.
