Feels like Destiny.

    Especially if “older” means two years or older.

      According to the article, they mean 6 years old or older.

        No, they said 67% at 6y or older, but 92% at more than 2 years old

          Oh, okay. Seems odd to call a 2 year old game an “older” game.

            Well, at 2 years it is probably older than at least one other game.

              True, but literally any game can be an “older” game by that definition.
