[PIGMI] Survey

[Wesley Lamont]

Thanks for sharing Paul. 

I also am unsure of the respondents. Could you put up a break down of the people who replied? Age, platform reply was made, gender? If you collected that data that is. From most other sources Consoles beat a PC for games share by a rather whopping margin so I'm curious as to the reasons (apart from those you have already mentioned in the article).
