Hardcore games

[Zkuq]

I think we should speak of 'core' games instead of 'hardcore' games unless we mean those really hardcore games. War simulators and such, you know. That's hardcore. Call of Duty definitely isn't casual, though it has some casual approach. But it's also far from hardcore, it's too simple for that. And then there's games that are neither casual nor core but somewhere between. I consider Mario games to be in this category, they're meant for both groups of players.

@O-D-C: You don't know what Commander Keen is or you don't know which category it fits in? If it's the former, shame on you, if it's the latter, I don't care.
