i have a feeling that this CES is gona be pretty lame for gaming.

"gaming is cool...gaming is here to stay...gaming is for everyone..."

I agree. I want gamers to game, not everyone. Having millions of dastardly morons to play games, who have no conception of quality or content, will severely damage the industry and lead to products that are inferior to what they'd be if the audience were critical. This is a fact, look at mainstream popmusic, not a whole lot going on there to tell the truth.

I'm not saying that casuals shouldn't be allowed to play games, but I strongly oppose having them decide the tone and direction the industry and it's contenders will take. Make one console for those who know nothing of games and care little about it, and leave us gamers to what we've been doing for 20 years++!

And how did you become "hardcore"? That's right, you played some "casual" or "party" games first, then looked for other games. No one is born playing Halo.

You surely cannot be opposed to a larger gaming population?

 If they conform the games and halt development for easy access; then yes.

If the quality of games remains the same, and the only thing that happens is increased earnings for the dev's: no!
