Do not believe? Try right-left wondering, how many friends who have regularly visited rental consoles like PlayStation or in college?
Without citing any actual survey data that sentence could be recognized as something that is at least close to reality, especially in urban areas, by those who are fond of solid game play. Indonesia even be called 'country of Million Gamers'.
Such a perfunctory look at the fact that, even the term 'country a million gamers' not only suitable for Indonesia, even a million numbers that look too small.
See also how many friends, especially in times of glory, like playing games via Facebook. Initial generation of Facebook users at least have never tried a game-themed Vampire 'bite each other "between friends.
More interesting if you pay attention to those who use smartphones. Starting from iPhone to Android, which many application categories targeted by the game.
