I need to preface this a bit for the folks that went to PAX. I did not go to the "Is Casual Killing the Core Games?" panel. If I don't reference conversations there, that is why. Reading enough of the online banter, you may find that some point pop up, but let's just ride this out and see where it takes us, okay?

First off, what is hardcore? How do we define what hardcore games (or gamers) are? Urban Dictionary has some funny answers.

I can attribute some of this to my job. I ask various people similar sets of questions, and some seem to not 'get it' even if I change the structure of said inquiry over and over. They want to hear something else. They try their damnedest to catch me in a lie or to turn the conversation around to their PoV. Sorry, I'm the expert here sir, you need to listen to me.
