I've owned almost every console and have played almost every genre in depth. If I hear one more person say I'm not a "hardcore" gamer because I own a Wii, I'm going to shit a basket full of cats.

On a side note, "hardcore" is probably the dumbest and most annoying gaming term I have ever heard. The only people who ever use it are elitists. What makes someone "hardcore" anyways? Playing a game in depth? Then I guess you could be "hardcore" about any game out there if you play it enough. Or maybe it's playing online multiplayer with stat tracking? I guess there were no "hardcore" players before this generation then.


I agree with you. And also, nice basket full of cats reference.

This entire notion of "hardcore gamers" is simply a bunch of nerds who are too "hardcore" to socialize. And the notion of "hardcore games" never really made sense to me.

I guess saying Nintendo was "kiddy" stopped working, so they had to think of something more obscure to bash Nintendo with.
