Eh, not for nothing but that sounds backwards. Hardcore gamers remember making boot disks to get your games running. Hardcore gamers, especially early adopters of various games, have often times been forced to become a computer technician to get games running. Hardcore gamers build their own machines to stay ahead of developer bloat, etc. Hardcore gamers will obsess over technical issues until resolution or work-arounds are found.
Casual gamers are fine and many grow into hardcore gamers, but I just thought this was a little backwards.
