So I've been searching for a little while, but does anyone know where I can find some hard data on gamers? I'm talking about large sample survey responses that include multiple qualitative and quantitative variables (age, gender, time/money spent, preferred platform, etc.). I'm sure you can assume that I'm doing this for statistical research, but all I've managed to find so far were info-graphics which don't contain the source of the data. This is also just for my own curiosity too.

I would assume that if that info is available to the public, you could find it on Steam, PSN, and Xbox live websites. I wouldn't trust statistics from an online survey, because not nearly everyone would participate.

I'm referring mostly to links to real statistical studies, the type that would outline methods of data collection and have the raw numbers there instead of just a final analysis. If I could use convenience sampling I'd be golden lol.
