One who spends in excess of more than 4 hours in one sitting. Realises that graphics, story, fun and all the other shit are all equally important. One offsetting the other will affect the game adversely
Many people claim to be hardcore gamers, but they are just posers. as stated above, all of the mentioned above are needed equally in order to make a kickass game.

a casual gamer minus a girlfriend, wife, job or some form of satisfying social life. They are mostly teenage boys, but some are grown men with the mentality of the average teenage boy.
a hardcore gamer would likely say, "that was so easy, I stayed home and beat in like two days"
note: they also never left the house or spoke to another human being n person during that entire 48 hour period.

John is a hardcore gamer. He spends all his money on video games and has no friends. He constantly bitches about how his favorite RPG's soundtrack is sub-par compared to the last game in the series on IRC chatrooms with other losers like him. Despite their constant bitching, the video game companies do not give a shit about their lousy opinions. He has never made contact with a woman that is not his mother. Ever.

someone who plays expert mode on guitar hero xD
seriously... a minority of people do excessively play videogames, but if it makes them happy, then whats the problem? it doesn't necessarily mean they are losers, I admire people who don't give into social trends or social "norms". I'm not exactly a gamer, but tech is one of the few things that actually interests me

True gamer. Me. Any gamer who has played videogames since they learned sub-basic motor skills, and who go into the past, before they were born, and pla every retro system out there. I agree Hardcore gamers and Casual gamers are mortal enemies. Hardcore gamers, for one, see past the greatest reason why we are mortal enemies. GRAPHICS. Who cares if a game has sub-par gfx for the system its on? If its a great game with great handling, story, action, WHO GIVES 2 SHITS ABOUT GFX? Graphics is only eye candy. Which is how you can discern the true gamers from posers because true gamers can always be found with a full library of NES, Atari, SNES, Genesis, GB (dot matrix screen), Virtual Boy, and any other lesser known systems.
Hardcore gamer: Me 'n my cuz. Hardcore 2 tha bone
Casual (poser): Johan (always thinks he's better than the 'hwhite boi' because he plays only new shit.
