60 per cent of UK phone gamers spend up to 30 minutes a day playing

A hardcore 11 per cent play for more than two hours a day.
New stats from Lightspeed Research confirm the ongoing rise of the mobile as a games platform.
It reports that 36 per cent of 25-34 year olds, 29 per cent of 35-44 year olds, 18 per cent of 45-54 year olds and 14 per cent of 55-64 year olds say their smartphone is the device they game on most often.
Mind you, for all the mainstream popularity of mobile gaming, it's still the fixed console that's the most popular way to play, with 60 per cent playing these in the past six months.
The figure for smartphones is 47 per cent.
Meanwhile the data showed 52 per cent of respondents have tried social gaming and Facebook remains the dominant platform, particularly for women (49 per cent compared to men at 37 per cent ).
