We had spotted some interesting social gaming statistics before. We spotted this today:

"The digital games market will grow at 17% a year for the next five years, making it worth $53bn (£33bn) in 2016, according to consultants Ovum.

They count digital games as those played online on PCs and consoles, as well as on tablets and smartphones."
