I'm 25, and it seems to me like more people than ever in my age group are gaming and/or getting into gaming because other people they know are so they feel compelled to. One of my buddies at work just got himself a PS3 and Black Ops II, his first game system ever, because he wanted to play with his other frat house buddies and he was feeling left out.
I think CoD, and the video streaming functions of Wii/360/PS3 in general are bringing in a lot of people to the industry that previously thought it was only for geeks/nerds/ sports-haters. Not so anymore.
My older brother is 29, he hasn't played games since we both lived at home with our parents, and he just bought a Wii and Mario Galaxy and has been playing it with his six-year old son.
I think gaming in general is bigger than ever, and the average age of a gamer is only increasing.
