I'm a business casual gamer. I never play without my khakis and a polo shirt. Cheers.

Not sure about casual gamer, but hardcore gamer is obviously a gamer who does full nude pornography while playing Link to the Past.

I have videos with commentary for all interested parties.

I hate it on TV shows when people who don't know squat about video games still refer to moderns games with "levels" and "high scores". It sends a chill down my spine.

AMC has played CATWOMAN.

Movie classics my fanny.

The word "innovative" really ticks me off lately.

I like this thread.

"Visceral" comes to mind. Also blanket-sweeping terms like "gameplay" and "visuals".

Also I don't think RROD, YLOD, or brick are overused, per se, but they are talked about a lot because they are problem that occur a lot, which is decidedly bad.

That's a good one.

Also it seems the controls on games are either "tight" or "wonky" although there doesn't seem to be a middle ground.

This thread makes me smile. One that I hear too often is "open world" anytime a game has places to explore reviewers say it has an "open world". Video games have always had places to explore even back in the atari age.

TCM bought the rights to most classic movies so AMC is going to be pants. I do like that they are playing more modern classics alot on certain months. I must have watched The Fugitive a dozen times and I know Ive watched Forrest Gump atleast three.

Yeah, the AMC has been garbage for years, but once in a while you'll get some spaghetti westerns and possibly an ALIEN marathon.

Right now on AMC:
K-911

followed by:
K-9 P.I

previously played:
K-9 Cop

It's a James Belushi-shit a thon.
