I still find it difficult to put people in a category .

If you are posting on this forum about games doesn't that make you hardcore?

I can't imagine that people who only play Wii sports/Eye toy kind of games spend time on forums to talk about games =/.

both

a hybrid of both

I play casual games like Ratchet, Jak and Sly in a hardcore way (100% completion, multiple run-throughs)
I play hardcore games like COD in a casual way.
I also like quirky games.

I game about 2 hours per day, sometimes 3.

I'm hardcore PC gamer.

I', so hardcore that I have to program the games myself. Otherwise they won't reach my level of hardcoreness.

How is that? It's like saying I'm a Satanist and Christian. You can't be Polar Opposites unless said person has a mental condition.

OT: Hardcore. Im a RPG lover.

Hardcore doesnt mean the time you spent, cause I can be a hardcore gamer that plays 2 hours/day but I try to finish my games 100%.

What if a guy plays 8 hours / day but he isnt even able to beat a game, and he just starts playing another?

I'm harcore when it comes to RPGs (not JRPGs though) and Brawl, otherwise I'm casual only playing maybe 5 hours a month.

Both and neither.
