People who judge games by their plot or graphics are casual gamers, as opposed to true gamers, who would rather play a game than watch it.
People who own an xbox are casual gamers, and so are the majority of people who own playstations. Casual gamers are ruining the industry for the rest of us. I wish gaming was still just for geeks.

Similar to a mix between a hardcore gamer, indie gamer, and retro gamer. They tend to have a love for games that are retro, Japanese, indie, or just plain classics. They also love the less popular retro titles and tend to seek deeper meanings, symbolism, and plot that affects the player subconsciously. They search for and adore retro pop culture references, including movies, music, or comics in the games they play. They couldn't give less of a shit about graphics, and look more for character development and design.
They hate bro gamers, and will generally not look upon casual gamers as well, though they only truly hate casual gaming. Everything else about them fits well into punk, indie, sometimes hipster, and once in a blue moon perhaps emo. But if a scene kid is ever one of these... well that's almost impossible.
Games with grungy, punkish or even just indie soundtracks are a subject of enjoyment especially.

Punk gamers play:
No More Heroes, Scott Pilgrim, Mega Man 9 are modernish punk games.
Final Fantasy II, Mega Man 2, and Dragon Quest are examples of games that are often talked about and referenced.
Punk Gamers do NOT play:
FPS Games (unless they're retro like GoldenEye, Doom, or Quake)
Sports games
Gimmicky games (especially not these)

Gentlemen Gamers are grown men who hold steady jobs, exercise and live relatively normal lives but play video games on the down low.
John is a low-key gentlemen gamer. Works his ass off in finance by day and secretly loves blowing shit up in C.O.D. by night. Would never admit it, tho.
The marks left on your abdominal area after sitting with bad posture. Most often gotten from gaming with bad posture or sitting hunched over on the toilet for too long.
Ex 1:
Dude! Do you have a six pack?

Ex 2:
*Looks in mirror*

*Realization*
Oh I wait, I just gamed for 3 hours straight without getting up: it must just be Gamer Abs

A fluid desired by all gamers: gamer-juice. It is the physical manifestation of gaming in liquid form.
