Yeah I remeber when me, Sony and Microsoft went to the ol swimming hole. We swim all day and use to catch and cook big ol catfish and seranade under the stars.
Oh course Microsoft or Sony sure don't care about profits, or marketshare or expanding there audiance. Nope there old fashion and enjoy the simple things in life with the old core gamers like myself.

A lot of people don't realize that the main reason why Sony and Microsoft are catering so heavily towards the "Hardcore" gamer is because they believed that they were the most profitable demographic. They assumed that since "Hardcore" gamers were willing to buy more expensive hardware, buy more games on average, pay for game-related services, and buy downloadable content that they could easily cover all the costs associated with catering to them ... Unfortunately (for Sony and Microsoft) the approach they took to cater to the "Hardcore" gamers drove development costs and hardware losses to a level where the "Hardcore" gamer is the least profitable demographic on the market at the moment.
