because i feel like the majority of you guys have more or less the same amount of games as casuals but don't even play as much as them according to yourselves. What's up? 15 games? That's it?


Where are the people like me who have over 100 full retail games from this generation alone and complete most all of them? (hopefully you're smart and get them at a low price like me!)

like from steam holiday sales ;)

Exactly, man! I must've bought a boatload of titles without breaking $100 :P ( I already own GTA IV on consoles, but that price was too good to pass up. Probably won't play it, but like I said, I couldn't pass it up). Anyway, look up my profile, and you'll see I got the collector's emblem (which is legit...I do own those games ;)), so yes, I own literally hundreds of games from the PSone era and beyond (never actually *owned* a Nintendo system, although I did play 'em before :D).

I only own 4 PS3 and 360 games, and 16 PC games. I tend to stick with one game for a long time.

And I have 120 sega genesis games and an embarrassing amount of atari 2600 games. So what? That doesn't make me anymore hardcore than the next guy.

Okay, so let's assume that "harcore" means the exact opposite of casual, or rather the massive extreme in dedication. Webster Dicitionary says casual, as far as dedication goes, means "Showing little interest; nonchalant". Casual gamers are ones that play games, but don't really care about them too much. Hardcore is the opposite, so it must mean "Showing a lot of interest; dedicated". There you go. That's what hardcore means.

i must admit. i am 55% hardcore talker and 45% hardcore gamer, may be that's becoz i got my PS3 4-5 months ago, or may becoz i can;t buy games where i live, it's just that GS forum is the only place where i can talk abt games anytime anywhere.

I'm not a hardcore gamer, but I don't think I'm a hardcore talker either. I don't have a lot of money and I like comic books more than I like games, and I love spending time with my girlfriend more than anything, so although I spend more time than the average person gaming, I probably play a lot less than most of the people here. I don't buy a lot of games, but typically whenever I buy a game, I beat it on medium difficulty before moving on to another game. I've beaten almost all of the games I own. I only replay games on harder difficulties if I become extremely addicted to a game (which is pretty rare). I don't have a lot of money, so most of the games that I've bought this gen have been cheap used gamecube games that I can now play on my wii. I play Battlefield BC and COD4 online, and I'm only decent at COD4 and bad/mediocre at Battlefield BC. I mostly post here when I'm eating lunch, while I'm watching TV, or when I can't sleep and am bored. Anyways, I don't think you need to be a hardcore gamer to be really interested in gaming. Even though I don't own a lot or am not particularly good, I am still very interested in video gaming, which is why I read reviews/previews and post here.
