I'd wonder if the extreme gamers wouldn't be the ones passing positive word of mouth about their favourite console to their buddies, though.

Eh. That article is about consoles, and I would argue that no one on (only) a console has been a "hardcore gamer" for over 10 years.

"Hardcore" is not a measure of a superior UI or graphics or whatever. It's a measure here of how much they spend. That adjective can be applied to almost any method of gaming. You have hardcore checkers players. You have hardcore Magic: the Gathering players. They are "the dudes in that particular market that tend to buy the most shit."

My wife plays the shit out of Bejeweled, or whatever that Facebook game is. I do not consider her a hardcore gamer.Just a difference in opinion. Posted by Malcolm on Jun. 28 2013,19:39
