I have two brothers that game, one on this very forum, and all my friends game, we tend to lan as much as we can when ever we are all on holiday. I tend do find that i am better friends with people who game, since that really is my only interest in life and i tend not to be able to really speak about anything else.
I have an even split of gamer and non gamer friends. In the family, my new brother-in-law is a big gamer as well, and my sister dabbles in them from time to time.
Just my brother! Rest of the people around me see it as a waste of time!
i have like 4 friends that play games but in the family it's just my one cousin.. and all he plays is starcraft (Which i'm not really into) When my GF comes to visit for the weekend all my gaming time drops to nearly zero![]()

At work, what [MENTION=297]FarligOpptreden[/MENTION] said. At home, my younger brother and pretty much all my male cousins game (mainly fifa, tekken, nfs, etc). My younger sister couldn't be fussed. A good ratio of my friends are gamers, ranging from light to hardcore. Then my girlfriend games lightly and there's an odd dichotomy between us where I'll be a fan of a franchise and she'll be into the competitor or she'll like a franchise that's in the same genre that I couldn't be fussed with (her Call of Duty to my battlefield, her nba to my fifa, etc)...
My wife is into gaming as well. She loves FPS games (only single player though, still have to get her to play multi player) and platformers (Trine, Abe). She is the best Super Mario player I have ever seen and she always kicks my ass in Worms!
We both have gaming PC's, no consoles.
My brother also plays and we also got my dad into gaming, but my dad only plays the odd RTS game and he finished several of the Commandos games.
I have a lot of gaming and non gaming friends, probably about 50/50. When BF3 came out we were 4 or 5 friends that played together all the time, was amazing.
