1) The most OVERRATED AND OVERUSED playstyle / genre of video games that are made. Few of them have any originality. Most of them are used for boring repetitive and often broken war games. Others consist of zombie / horror / or secret agent themes. Though some FPS games are actually good, people tend to eat up the shit-hole fps games.

Any other stereotypical definition is useless: I play online games a lot. I am over 40, have a girlfriend, am in good physical shape and I hold down a fairly high-pressure job. I am college educated.
Some of the younger gamers that I meet online fit the nerdy stereotype but no more than the average cross-section of high-school students. There is a higher than average number of creative professionals in the game servers I go to (probably because I go to the Mac servers).
I also have LAN parties at my house - my friends come round, we drink a few beers, get a take-away, link our computers together and fight to the death. The other three are married and two have kids. Three of us have college degrees and we are all fairly high earners.
Your stereotype is way off.
