Punk Gamer 

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)

gamer punk 

A gamer punk is a person who generally plays video games, but has a punk attitude or clothing style. Gamer punks normally are the more popular of the gamer stereotype, not being very nerdy. You could find a group of them hanging out at an arcade or a gaming center, wearing punk clothes.
Person 1 "Hey, look at that gamer punk over there."

Person 2 "Is he playing World of Warcraft?"

Person 1 "Yeah, hey, he has a lot of piercings. He's wearing a Ramones t-shirt too."

The punk game refers to the act of a group of people sitting around a tree stump, where then a person, whom has the sloppiest fecal matter defecates on the log, then slams his fist on the stump. The person who gets the most fecal matter on them wins! The punk game is a game of unknown origin.
Hey, dude, want to play the punk game later?
Josh won the punk game yesterday! His school uniform got covered in fecal matter and he stinks like a pig!

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
