Yea... I don't know how many there are, but a lot of those who claim to be "hardcore" gamers have a rather big ego. I don't understand why they have to assume something as casual or non-hardcore just because it's different from their taste or different from what they usually encounter. Furthermore, since when just because they do not see it as "hardcore" that they do not play it?

To be honest, I really don't understand what the word hardcore means. I have always assumed that those are people who have genuine + a lot of interest in gaming. Their very actions really contradicted what I have previously believed. Or maybe it's just that what I thought hardcore meant was wrong afterall.

In all this bashing and console war, maybe ego was what it was all about.

On the final note, my apology for the generalization from this post...

My definition of hardcore is a game that targets games by having depth, and achevements. A hardcore gamer is somebody who games for a hobby, while a casual gamer is somebody who occasionally games for recreation. There isn't much of a difference between the two except the hardcore gamer uses gaming more of a hobby, than simple entertainment. 

 

 If your definition is true, their behaviors still contradict what those "hardcore" gamers claim to be.
