Softcore vs. Hardcore - What's your pleasure?

[Ron]

How many minutes/hours per day do you spend gaming on your iDevice?

[Mr. Charley]

Awww, misleading title, not fair! (gets head out of gutter)

I spend a few hours each night (on good nights), and while that may seem hardcore (I call it dedicated), the games I play are pretty much softcore by my definition (match 3, line drawing etc). I don't really see any "hardcore" games on the iDevice, in comparison to the 360 for instance.
I guess it depends how you define hard core. Amount of time on device? Amount of time spent to complete a game 100%? Being top 5 on leaderboard?

But since you specifically asked how many minutes with the soft vs. hard, I'm going to assume that's all you intended.
So then let me take it further and ask at which point in time does it change from softcore to hardcore?

[Ron]

Sorry, I'm a slow typer. took me a few minutes to submit the poll.

Hardcore vs. softcore is really subjective. I liked the play on words though
I consider myself "softcore" or casual at 30-60 but sometimes I find myself immersed and play longer.

Oh. You mean gaming........


I play less than half a hour per day normally on the iPhone. Except when a game is released that I get hooked on. In general I spend several hours a day gaming (pc/360)

It depends on what games came out that week.
I've spent a lot more time on my iPod Touch since Riddim Ribbon and PvZ came out. Usually, it's about an hour.

I wish I had more time to play. I seem to spend considerably more time looking for interesting apps to buy/win/consider/download than I actually spend using them.

Yes, it's a sickness, I know I need help...

Usually I play for about an hour each day, but sometimes it can be more than 2 hours (mostly when I play COD or Graal)

I play very few games more than 30 minutes per day. When I am reviewing, I end up playing a lot more, but when just casualing it up, probably about 30 minutes per week or less. I really stopped gaming after quitting Ultima Online.
