Hardcore gamers will buy a game they REALLY want for any price, like God of War 3 or diablo 3...I've only got 2 kidneys

Hardcore .. Which usually means you dont have a girlfriend.
As soon as you spend enough time on a game to be hardcore ,
then i start wondering when last youve seen the sun shine.
I used to be a hardcore world of warcraft player ..
some games just eat your life.

To be hardcore in anything you need to dedicate your time and energy to it.
And with that i dont mean a brand or a Genre , no , to 1 game.
You play 1 game so much that youre freakishly good at it.

Microsoft need to rethink the idea of someone being "hard core"

Hardcore players dont have time to play new noob games ,
their too busy pwning.

You have some realy fucked up Ideas, maybe you should add a "IMO" to that

I actually like what he said... I just add "porn" after hardcore everytime

...but yea, hardcore gaming is a bit of a different breed, but no where is it written (in stone) that hardcore gamers do not have balanced lifestyles, or they do not know how to maintain a balanced, or even being balanced in the way they game.
