Why have hardcores been acting like casuals?

Why is it that lately it seems like hardcores have been showing the most casual characteristics?

-Of kids at my school, the ones who play VGs the most are getting wiis, while the ones who like some occasional FPS have gotten xboxes.

-hardcores are the ones complaining about xbox live fees,not casuals.

-casuals have been buying the triple a titles like SSBB and GTAIV while hardcores have been buying games based on box art that catches their eye.

I'll post more when I think of them, just wondering about this interesting roll reversal.

Well I haven't been there so I wouldn't know.

What does it matter? If you see a game that interests you, then try it. No one's feelings are getting hurt.mo0ksi

Yeah this is basically what I'm saying.
