There's no such thing as casual/hardcore games. Casual or hardcore is in the way you play games, not the games themselves. If you have seen some Wii Play youtube videos you probably know what I mean.

The same for chess, you can play it casually or hardcore.

 

 

 Why do game sites call it casual?

Because most game journalists are clinging to the casual/hardcore distinction in order to prop the 360/PS3 up and the Wii down?

 

Stop with all the bullshit theories. You know how pathetic it makes you (and Nintendo fans as a whole) look?

I don't care if I look pathetic or not, I care whether I'm right or not.

Is is not true that the casual/hardcore distinction is being much more talked about this gen than the last? Is it not true that most of the gaming media acts as if 360/PS3 is where you want to be for "hardcore" experiences and Wii for "casual"?
