As opposed to casual? I would say anything that gets extensive play, has a hardcore base of players. Why would one put Call of Duty in the same category as Peggle or cell phone stuff or board and cardgames?

A casual game is a video game targeted at or used by a mass audience of casual gamers. Casual games can have any type of gameplay, and fit in any genre. They are typically distinguished by their simple rules and lack of commitment required in contrast to more complex hardcore games.[1] They require no long-term time commitment or special skills to play, and there are comparatively low production and distribution costs for the producer.
Casual games are typically played on a personal computer online in web browsers, although they now are starting to become popular on game consoles and mobile phones as well. Casual gamers are typically older than traditional computer gamers,[2] and more oftentimes female,[3] with over 74% of casual gamers female.[4]
The ONLY part really you can argue that Call of Duty is "Casual" is that it has a large number of less than skilled players who play it.
