People are missing the point:
The number of hardcore games has NOT changed - there are just as many as there used to be (if not more), and they are a lot better than they used to be.
The change is that there are a LOT more games out in general (like 10x as many as before). And the only way this will work in the market, is if these other games are *different*.
...
Give it a few years, and I think you'll see the quality of casual games rise significantly. Its only been a few years - give it another 5, and I think you'll be surprised what happens.
