lol wut?

Depends what you call hardcore...

I've been playing games since the SNES but I was never "hardcore" till this generation.

Since I was 4 years old in 1989, when I first played Super Mario Bros.

I had colecovision before that, but the only game I had enough manual dexterity to complete was the smurfs.

a little over 18 years, I got an NES in 1989 (when I was three) and I've never looked back. I never really had a casual period of gaming, I was hooked on day 1.

11 years , since 1997 ( i was 4 ) and im still counting the days :D Neo-Gh0st

do you know how old that makes me feel!

started gaming in about 1980 when i was 7. and i will be still gaming when nurses are wiping my arse and feeding me

Been gaming ever since I got my atari in 1983...I was 10...you do the maths :)

Damn man, and I though I was old, you've been gaming since before I was born....

Ever since I got my NES. I would stay up all night playing and when I went to sleep I would leave it on since I couldnt save.justforlotr2004

lol....not being able to save....I remember doing that with games....man that sucked.

Define hardcore?? Someone who plays a lot? Completes games 100%?

I've been playing since I can remember, started on my uncles Commodore 64, got my NES when I was 5 and I've been playing since but I've never used the term hardcore to describe myself, I'm not a big fan of the term.

I think your title is misleading TC, you asked how long have we been a HARDCORE gamer. and i think its impossible to be one at such a young age. you could have started gaming at that age but noway could you be considered hardcore. as for me i started gaming during the snes days. I think ive only just recently became a hardcore gamer this gen. Because now I dont even think about starting a game at anything less than normal ( where before i would pick easy or very easy). And usually try to complete the game on all difficulties and collect all the rewards possible.

right now im trying to get everything in DMC4 and its proving to be quite a challenge.

oh and im 20 btw

Hmmm never. I consider the Hardcore gamers the ones that live in their mothers basement playing only one console and going to the forums to complain about others on how other consoles don't have hardcore games when those hardcore gamers should be playing all variety of games...

I consider myself a REAL gamer and I've been one since 1998 when Ocarina of Time came out. Before than, you could call me a casual....
