Gamers are actually social!
i think its the opposite...
the hardcore games who spent most of their time playing games all day are actually less social.. by social i mean going out with actual friends,relatives and not Facebook or online "pseudo social"
the sample size was also 1000 only and that too online people..
totally misleading title and survey of course to make headlines..

at the time of interview i don't think she had played modern warfare 2 hence the reaction...
saying this because the way they showed in cod 4 i also felt that captain price was dead..
as i haven't played warfare 2 yet

IDK about consoles but League of Legends, Dota 2, Counter Strike and Starcraft 2 pay a tonnnnnnnnn of money to pro gamers..
India is still in the nascent stage, no big international tournaments organized here..

Don't know whether gamers are social are not, but this idiocy is not at all needed.
It is an old interview and she might not have played MW2 at that point of time. :/
I'm fully satisfied with just "female". "Female gamer" ? who cares?
Just pointing out that the news is actually Gamers being more social, also I'd be happier with a more specific title, just sayin'
Set aside, Gamers are terrible socially unless the other person is also a gamer of sort. For any person to be deemed "social" it seems he/she has to be a great con artist in this country with smug smiles and fake salutations.
Girl gamers are just people of feminine gender. Stereotypes like "lel angrybirdsGurl" and massive circlejerks around forums and communities alike are the reasons why they aren't seen much online. I have a few friends who play "games", and one among them plays FPSes like Crysis and Farcry. Most of the others play strategy and RPGs, and no one plays multiplayer because you know how it goes.
