I once asked a man what a "core gamer" was, and he gave me this definition.

"One who has a genuine interest in video games and who buys video games on a relatively constant basis." 

Hole in the theory:

Does it make me a hardcore player if I only play CoD games or only FF games or only Halo games or religiously follow every single title and spin off of any other steeply milked franchise ?

So no, a good customer is not necessarily a hardcore gamer. A loyal WoW subscriber for example, he puts in more game hours than most of us. I wouldn't call him a hardcore gamer if WoW accounts for most of the stuff he plays.
