| | Hardcore gamer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Hardcore gamer is a term used to describe a type of video game player, or gamer, whose leisure time is largely devoted to playing video games. | | | Arguably, part of being a hardcore gamer is the playing of many new games. | | | In the latter decades of the twentieth century computer games were produced that could be followed by their players in a similar, but initially less developed, fashion to how someone would favor playing games of cards, or models of role-playing games. |

| | I think that if someone plays a video game, and then goes out and harms another human being, or themselves because of what they just saw in the video game, they were screwed up in the head long before they got their hands on a controller. | | | This week's Q&A is with Tim Buckley of Ctrl+Alt+Del who shares what he, not just as a gamer but someone ingrained in gaming life, thinks about violence in gaming. | | | Now we get another take on the issue, a viewpoint of those heard far less often: gamers and those who are actually members of video game culture. |

| | When corporations try to have pie in the sky nines of reliability (quick explanation) for webapps, I'm not real sure why Blizzard can't have enough backup servers to take one farm down and replace it with a second set -- sort of a RAID 1 setup with servers rather than hard drives. | | | I was thinking about getting a big shipment of PSOne games to stock the Curmudgeon Gamer Memorial Library, like I did last summer, and so I loaded up the EB Games/GameStop used PSOne games page. | | | Okay, okay, I know this won't win any Curmudgeon Gamer Post Awards, but I had to find some outlet to vent my frustration at finally freeing up enough time to reactivate my World of Warcraft account -- and have it come in the middle of Tuesday maintenance!!! |
