Anyone that can name me a 'hardcore' game that does not include these I will personally send them a Mars bar :P |
I think of Tetris Attack as a hardcore game. I also think of Trauma Center and Phoenix Wright as hardcore games. Other than racing and puzzle games, I can't think of any game that doesn't have you killing anything. But Psychonauts and Beyond good and evil doesn't match your description, which I consider hard core games.
But that is all a matter of opinion. I don't consider spastic shooting a hardcore genre, but I consider some FPS games hardcore. It is kinda hard to describe.
