According to this Xbox 360 users definitely spend a lot more time playing games than PS3-users but I will keep the rest of the data (and the comments regarding that the survey is wrong, etc.) up to you ;)

Nope, according to this Xbox 360 users spend a bigger fraction of the total time of usage of the console playing games. That's not necessarily more time.

For example: notice how the watching Blu-ray/DVD section is all skewed to the PS3 (obviosuly)? That extra 8-9% time of usage of the console might be what makes the very same absolute value of gaming time take a lesser percentage on PS3 than 360.

Or maybe not: you need absolute times to draw any conclusion.

It's not that the survey or the sampling is wrong. It's that you read it wrong.

Not necessarily wrong unless there are the total hours of usage. Respectively would also make my point clearer.
