Are you a core or casual gamer?

...or something in between? I think I'm more of a core gamer than a casual - I have all three consoles, a PC and about 30 or more games. I buy games on a fairly regular basis and I play every chance I get. I usually finish my games on the hardest setting. I have a favorite genre (shooting / action adventure) and I even subscribe to gaming magazines. If that isn't core, then it's whatever comes next.

Hardcore(I assume that's what you mean by core).

I own the 3 new gen systems.

I have been playing my SNES these days, even though I still need to find the rest of my Legendary games.

I also get gaming magazines like Gamepro and Game Informer.

I play games every day.

I would say HARDCORE, play games everyday, if I get some time, I just got my new broadband connection fitted today! (Hooray)
So im leathering my PC games online, getting xbox live and buying games constantly, I work part time in a video game store and talk constantly about video game to my work mates, so I consider myself hardcore, oh and I spend like £20-50 a month on video games magazines.

I'd say I'm in between a casual and hardcore gamer. I only own one game console and I didnt get ti anywhere near its release date but I do play games quite often. I also will play all day long if I have nothing else to do. But I dont own many games, only 5.

I would probably be a hardcore gamer if I had a better paying job sicne I have to pay for all my gaming necessties and when I go but stuff I have priorites. First its my car, then clothes, then stuff for my room, then gaming. If I have a girlfriend it'll be a struggle between buying stuff for my car and her.

eh, i consider myself a casual gamer even though i have over 100 games, and play all day. a hardcore gamer is like a guy who owns almost all the old consoles (atari, commodore 64, msx) and collects rare games

I don't play games so much anymore. I don't count yesterday, I haven't been playing them for about two weeks. The most of my time goes to summer job, buddies, parties, football...

(This turns upside down when it's winter)

I own the 3 next gen systems plus a Dreamcast. If my games had not been stolen, I would probably have around 50-60 games right now.

I play 2 or 3 hours every day, and in my days off I may play some 5 or 6 hours.

You tell me what kind of player I am because I really don't know. I love games, but they're not my life, as they used to be 5 years ago.

I use to be a core gamer i use to play games from 8 to 9 hours straight but that was awhile ago. But i dont really play games as much maybe about an hour or two each day or perhaps even less.
So i say casual i guess

I'm more a hardcore gamer.

I have nearly every system since Collecovision and Intellivision, including DC, Xbox, GC, ps2, and GBA, and I'm only 16, and I'm not rich. I have played at least 900 games and own around a total of 400.

I have my genres ranked in order, and know exactly the classifications of each. I get 6 gaming magazines every month, and have been for 3 years.

If that's not core, I'm the next best thing.

Last night at my place I had "Gaming Nirvana". It was an event that took place, which I was planning for the last 1 month. All my friends came in with their Xboxs and Ps2s and NGCs, and I took my 4 TVs in the basement. Connected all the Xboxes through a Router and had "HALO", "RTCW", "Midnight Club 2", "Tekken Tag", "Mario Party 4" tournament. From 5pm, till exact 5:30am....... it was really gaming nirvana.

12 players Halo team match was the best. Hands down, HALO IS THE BEST MULTIPLAYER GAME, EVER!!!!!! (Console Wise).

And we are having "Gaming Nirvana 2" in about 2 weeks. So seeing me organising gaming tournament...I guess I am a HardCore gamer. Plus theres more to it..
