What is a hardcore gamer?

sieanr said: Do you play shmups, especially bullet hell? Do you play "cult" games? Do you import, especially hardware? Do you own a Sega Saturn? Do you play old games on a regular basis? If you answered "no" to any of the above then you're assuredly not hardcore.

Then less than .5% of gamers are hardcore. And hardcore gamers have ZERO impact on the gameing industry. I import PC games often enough. And I import some japanese games. There is a good chance I will start importing games for my PS3/PSP. how old? because I play breakout all the time. Oh yeah, and for Cult games. http://egosoft.com I play X.
