Alright, here are the requirements to be a hardcore gamer. 1. You have to play video games frequently. 2. Hmmm well.... Welp, this seems like enough requirements.

I think a lot of people take their expectations too seriously, you see this especially with sequels. If BioShock 2 were released before the original it would be considered a really good game, but instead many people consider it bad because it's 15% worse than the previous game. I tend not to...

I wouldn't even consider it unless the new consoles were backwards compatible and even then I would have to be starving to death. I am the type of person that replays games that I like, So this question doesn't even make sense to me.

Saying the game is racist is just dumb, just because a game has racist characters doesn't mean it promotes racism. Columbia isn't portrayed as an ideal society and it's founder is the games antagonist . At one point Booker saves an interracial couple from death.(if I remember correctly)

I'm going to rank these games as if there were a gaming hall of fame. I don't personally like all of these games, but I recognize their relevance. There are plenty of games that I will look back at as my all time favorites that aren't listed here, because I understand they aren't...

A lot of games say something like "Winner of 120 game of the year awards", which makes me wonder if they count Facebook polls.

I always enjoy when artists talk about what they believe in and I dislike when they are too afraid to do so. These people are human beings they are just as qualified to speak their opinion as anyone else.

I'm not really a completist when it comes to Achievements , so I don't care about multiplayer achievements. The only thing I dislike is a game makes it too difficult to get 300 achievement score, (Fuck Max Payne 3) I just don't feel as satisfied when I look at a number less than 300.

Society seems overly concerned with labels, I mean they are just words. This person wants to be apart of the Hardcore gamer club, but doesn't want to be associated with people he doesn't like. This is an especially annoying desire, I mean do we really need to romanticize certain words? I've...

I don't know if there has been a time where I'm less excited about upcoming games, so some games on this list I'm only kind of interested in. Two of these games may never exist ,(Half LIfe 3 isn't one of them) but otherwise I would only have one a couple games I'm really looking forward to...

My point is Lee's race doesn't test the players ability to sympathize with him. I think a cultural difference is more interesting or at least a different perspective than usual. The most thing for me is rather or not a character is interesting and I believe I'm capable of sympathizing with a...

I don't worry about things like diversity in gaming. I mean if an industry and it's consumers are mostly white, straight and male, who would you guess most of the protagonists are going to be? Even so, there are still a fair amount of protagonists that don't have all of those characteristics...

Max Payne 3: The story wasn't particularly interesting and I the found the combat awkward. Every Assassins Creed game I have played: I find no part of these games very gripping, everything just feels so generic. Call of Jaurez: BIB: My house burned down shortly after I began playing it...

All of the games you showed are held I'm high regard by a lot of people, so it was hard to see the difference. "Console shooter that is scripted, linear, regen health and nothing but corridor crawler" I found that statement kind of dumb, who decided games with those qualities were bad? I mean...

http://www.favslist.com/users/Thomas-Thompson/3870/lists/4 Some people may think I am an insane person based on a few of those games. I usually have lower standards for squeals than other people. For example I feel like BioShock 2 is maybe 15% worse than the original, but it is still a pretty...
