What is a gamer?
Historically, the term "gamer" usually referred to someone who played role-playing games and wargames. Since video games became popular, the term has changed to include players of video games. While the term nominally includes those who do not necessarily consider themselves to be gamers (i.e., casual gamers), it is commonly used to identify those who spend at least some of their leisure time playing or learning about games.

According to the article on Wikipedia about gamers I think I am a mid-core gamer while Jex is definitely a hardcore gamer. I've always enjoyed playing video games since I was a kid and my interest in games expanded a bit more when I met Jex.
