Are you kidding me?  There will always be hardcore games and hardcore gamers.

Hopefully you are right, but things like this will convince developers that their is more money in the casual market. That means that there will be less emphasis on hardcore games and less hardware for the core gamer.

you feel my pain...

Thats just stupid.

Casual games fail just as much as hardcore games, switching over to making casual friendly games is not a magical solution to financial problems. Also while casual games don't cost as much to produce the audience is fickle, nothing guarantees that the sequel to a casual game will be a success. Hardcore games will have dedicated audiences that will shell out money for DLC, expansion packs and will dedicate themselves to a series, buying everything related to it.

Basically the existence of one medium does not nullify the other. Although going by your post history your not really worried about casual games overtaking the market as much as your just looking to spite the 360 any way you can. 

Stupid?  Due to casual party games and motion controls, the Wii blew the Gamecube away sales wise. So I dont see anything stupid at all.  MS is changing its customer base a bit.  

And yes I love to "spite the 360".  All 3 of them that we have in our home. I totally SPITE the f^^k out of em.
