I'm hearing this since the early 90s when I started playing games but probably happened before too

So how is it now? Do they still play games or has it reduced? (Genuinely don't know the year on year market).

edit: I looked up some figures and the numbers had a brief dip in 2022 but are continually increasing since. So I would say, games are being played and rising still.

		>Do they still play games or has it reduced Of course and perfect example of that is the existential crisis of Hollywood. Video games aggressively outpace traditional cinema in revenue, cultural relevance, and audience time and Hollywood can't really do anything with that. GTA V hit $1B in 3 days. GTA VI will be even bigger than that, probably the biggest entertainmant product launch ever.

Yeah, I’m old, it was a thing in the 80’s too.
