Good Gamespy article "Do Hardcore Gamers still matter ?"

Ok, so we are making some progress in defining what WE think are
good parameters as to determine wether someone is a hardcore gamer
or not.

Until now the we only specified the following :

- hardcore gamer
- casual / mainstream gamer

Certainly for the moment, I am not gonna say either one is playing better games or which one has a \'better understanding\' what good games should be.

Becuz I still say there\'s more differentiation. Gamers who just play one game excessively much or gamers who game not that often but who take them as inspiration/muse into their work of field/hobby, beyond the activity of gaming itself.

In other ways it might be easier to see which ppl have gaming close to their heart. Observe any group conversation and spot the ppl who can talk on and on about games and the ones who quickly revert to other media without linking that to games.
