New research shows a massive generational divide in game genre preferences. A study by MIDiA Research surveyed 9,000 gamers across several countries including the US, UK, Germany, and South Korea. It found that online player-vs-player games are more popular than single-player ones among audiences aged 16-24. Only 30% of this bracket wants to play alone, while a whopping 68% of them would rather play online or couch co-op.

Precisely how I feel. I love playing something cooperative and I dislike when it’s some PVP fps game. Baldurs gate with some friends or divinity, the borderlands series is great coop fun too
