No

The only true hardcore gamers are the ones who devote tons and tons of hours to video games.

I'd say I'd be considered a casual gamer these days. On average I may spend 2-5hrs/week playing the 360.

I don't consider myself a hardcore gamer.

I usually spend about 10 hours a week gaming.

Depends on what you call hardcore. I think that most people associate "hardcore" with "lives in mom's basement and never sees daylight" or "has no life outside of video games" or something like that. How do you define hardcore?

i dont consider your definition of hardcore. i consider hardcore gamers people who go out and buy all the AAA games, spend more than $500 in games, come on to websites like gamespot to get all their game info, and basically live for gaming

Thats the usually stereotype of gamers. I think youre defined as a hardcore gamer if you buy lots of games and know lots about games.

LOL Suicide silence rocks, that doesn't make you a hardcore gamer though? But, if you listen to the faceless and through the eyes of the dead as well as animosity, then I can dub you hardcore!

To be a hardcore gamer you have to be in the Pro Zone. Winning is EVERYTHING!

I hate losing more than anything...

Are we all hardcore gamers or are there some casual gamers out there RealKilla_789

Depends on your definition of hardcore, my definition is: Someone who plays games to their extreme, they have to unlock everything, do everything, beat everyone. They won't settle for anything less than total and utter domination of all aspects of a game.

I'm not one who does that unless I take genuine pleasure in doing so, i.e. a game is legitimately just THAT fun. Achievements mean nothing to me, and I don't really play multiplayer because of all the egos and a connectivity problem I have with Live. I still use a Live silver account, and have an Xbox 360 Elite, but does that make me hardcore? I don't think so, and I dispute anyone who's labeled me as such.

I think the only instance where I've attempted to complete everything was in Portal, in The Orange Box. That game is just too fun for words, I'd recommend it to anyone.

I devoted alot into my 360, tons of $, until it Red Ringed....which upsets me but, now I am getting the ps3 on the 22nd, and will put alot of money into buying games for that. I don't wanna say I'm hardcore, but i live and breathe video games.

I am not hardcore when playing my 360. There just aren't games out for the 360 that I AM INTERESTED IN. I don't really care for shooters, so I hardly ever play my 360. Luckly, i got the system for free, so I don't feel like my money is being wasted at all. I spend a lot more time playing my PS3 and Wii. They have more of the types of games I'm interested in. Good ol' fashion action/adventure games. But I've got nothing against the 360.

No, most are mid core gamers, you know, they play all the really big games like Halo, Gears, Mass Effect, Rock Band, and CoD4, but they don't talk about games when they are at school because they don't want to be viewed as a geek/nerd/loser. They are absolutly the worst kind of gamer, They annoy the hell outta me. Anyways, you would never find them playing or talking about a game like Eternal Sonata, Crackdown, devil may cry, or even The Orange box in some cases. And lots of them don't play japanese games, especially JRPGs, so lots of them don't even have a PS3 or Wii becaues they all like shooters and the 360 has all the shooters you can handle.

A hardcore gamer is someone in their late 20's early 30's who buys a my little pony game with 8 levels and spends over 50 hours of gameplay on it hehehe:P I have a wii and a 360 and i would not consider myself hardcore even though i own a fair amount of games.

Who cares,just play games,if you truly are putting a effort into being hardcore there's not point in trying anymore.If you feal like you have to constantly play or beat something even though your extremely tired or hungry.I don't even consider myself hardcore but i think i used to be 33,000 gamerscore:P

My definition of a casual gamer is someone who only plays one type of game. Maybe he only plays Madden or Fifa or Cooking Mama. He has no interest in any other type of game and doesn't know about new games on the horizon. A hardcore gamer is someone who plays many different types of games and keeps up to date with gaming news by checking websites and gaming forums. I don't think playing time has anything to do with it. I only get to play for a few hours a week but I still consider myself a hardcore gamer.

I never said you did. You gave your definition and I gave mine. I quoted you because I agreed with what you said about buying the new games and coming to gamespot. I said about play time because losts of people, including the person you quoted, mentioned it in their posts.

If you own all 3 and post on gaming forums I'd say you're hardcore. Play time has nothing to do with it.

According to my cousin yes. Haha. Although I don't think everyone is, I'd say anyone that spends 10+ hours a week on XBL playing games like Halo 3 and CoD4 are hardcore.
