| Smidlee said: A hardcore gamer is simply those who have gaming as a serious hobby. For example those who if they have the cash would pay $300-$500 on a graphic card just for gaming. So I would say PS3 and Xbox260 appeals more toward the hardcore gamers and the Wii more toward the casual player. Graphics (HD) and sound (DD5.1) is more important to a hardcore gamer than the casual gamer. Of course there is a lot of gray area between the two and not as black&white as some hear seem to suggest. |
Nah, those are graphics/AV nuts, not gamers.
If a gamer has $500 bucks, he goes out and buys $500 bucks worth of games. Gaming infrastructure only needs to be expanded if there aren't enough interesting games to be had on on the gamer's current infrastructure.
