This is a very hard question, since the definition for a hardcore/casual gamer can be twisted. But I was to set up my own rules, I would consider myself a hardcore gamer. I do nothing on Youtube but look up game related things, I go to my garage in snowy weather (no heaters out there) just to play 3 consoles that are almost 15+ years old, and I can't go a week without going to my local used game store (Those stores that carry the old stuff, as old as the NES). So yeah, I'm a hardcore gamer.

I am probably a 'casual' gamer. I mean, I play games all the way to the end, and I usually FINISH them 100%....but I don't stress over it, and I hate stuff like "NO MAGIC CHALLENGE!" "LOW LEVEL SPEED RUN!" and I am not ashamed to cheat sometimes. It's about enjoying the game for me, so I don't really care. And I really dislike "hardcore" gamers on multi-player servers-I tried to get into it with Bioshock 2, but quickly got tired of the power gamers who lived to humiliate and put down other players. 

Plus I play games like Mario Party 3 as well as hard-core shooters, so I know a lot of gamers who would turn up their noses at me and tell me I wasn't even fit to call myself a gamer.

As for my "media interest", yes, I always look up gaming stuff on You Tube. I don't have any old consoles (I have Wii, game cube, DS, 3DS.) but when I do play games, I play them hardcore style  Note: I used a different emoticon because it's a copy paste from another board called Betaarchive I'm active on and I like their version. Just so Davideo7 knows the emoticon is the same.

It does not matter if you are a hardcore or casual  player. What is important when it comes to gaming you enjoy it. I love puzzle and challenging games. I like forming strategies and to locate the enemies weak points in order to win the game. Honestly, sometimes  I resorted to available cheats to win hehehe,

Enjoy gaming...

I am a casual gamer, when I made a YouTube account I promised if I somehow got big I'd not make videos for the money. Personally, I make videos for fun and am currently rendering 5 right now!

It seems like there's a lot of controversy on what the definition of "hardcore" really is. Personally, I believe that hardcore means that you play video games commonly and you spend a lot of time playing and completing them. I also like to read articles and reviews on the internet on them. That's what I was going for. I don't believe that hardcore means doing speedruns and getting 100% completion. That's..something else. I don't know what.

I don't really know if I'm hardcore or if I'm a casual gamer. I guess you could just call me a cascore gamer.

I would have to consider my self a hard core gamer. I don't play video games a lot but for some reason I am very good at most of them. So yeah I would consider myself a hard core gamer.

Wow, I'm really glad this got to be such a popular thread! It seems as though that being hardcore or casual completely depends on your definition of each word.

I'm a casual gamer. I'm the kind of person that will quit if he can't beat a game even with a walkthrough so I just stick with easy games most of the time.

I personally see myself on the middle of the hard core scale. I can be very determined to beat games no matter how hard they are, I like making statergies and hope to be a LP'er when I grow older, I am really big fan of video games, and etc. But, I don't really try doing things like competitive play in pokemon, MMO's, and other things so, I am the average hardcore gamer.

I'm more of a normal/average retro gamer. I not so much of a noob but I'm not an extreme pro either. Usually when their is a game that I can't beat, then I just play another game, lol.

I am not by any means a hardcore type gamer, I only play just for fun, when it comes to Pokémon though I do take time to do a good job training my Pokémon so that I can have a good balanced team, but other than that I am not a hardcore gamer and I really don't take playing games as a serious matter, I play for fun and do it casually so I am not a hardcore type person when it comes to games.

It really depends on the game for me, but normally, I'm a casual gamer, but I'm a hardcore gamer in the GTA series since I play that game so many times, I can say that I'm a hardcore games for that series, but other than that, pretty much a causal gamer.

Hello there & HOW ARE YOU? I'm great! ..

Most people would find this strange considering I play so much Video Games & write so many reviews that I'm a hardcore gamer, but I'm actually a casual gamer. I play games occasionally, when I have the time. I just like writing about games and giving tips and help on them.

So, I'm a casual gamer!
