I dont think its going to grow by 3x the amount. I think that a good majoraty of the people who want to play online games already do them. I can only think of tennagers just getting into online gameing, many adults I know have already made up their mind on wether they can afford to play online games (monthly fees is the thing that I think keeps most people away from those games, myself included.) And of the people that I know that are absolutely addicted by online games, amoung most of them, they are only willing to pay for one game at a time before they move onto a nother one. So I do think its going to grow, but I think by 3x in a single year is a bit unlikely. There might be that many new online games that have been released, but I doubt there will be that many more people playing the games. As many of them will probably pick one game and stick with that one for awhile.
