-The platform its on(Nintendo consoles and mobile devices tend to be considered casual)
-The genre(if the game isnt action-y, then that makes it more casual)
-The population of players(The more people who play it the more casual it is)

Sitting back and enjoying a game isn't allowed anymore.

You must sweat profusely in order for the game to be "hardcore." (aka good)

casual games are easy to pick up and enjoy without having to focus on them or study the game mechanics, hardcore games force you to study the game mechanics and such to have fun in the game.

OK, real meaning:

For a game not to be casual, according to 69% of gamers it has to be full of people that try really really hard and has to have life put into the game

Real fact, kthx.

I don't see much strategy involved in aiming a gun and clicking a button.

games are casual if:
-they are on iphone or any other device most kids would use
-they are popular (i.e. COD, angry birds)
- they aren't violent
-they don't require a 2000 iQ to play (jk kinda, but you know what i mean)
-they are free (club penguin, f2p little kid games)
-if they aren't on PC

those are a few reasons, but the term casual is mostly used to make hardcore nerds seem cool. it really just means little kid games and games that are just pick up and play

I don't think SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition is very popular.

@uberpwner123

yeah some games can be challenging on ios I agree

but thats not how "hardcore gamers" feel

theres no use arguing with them, theyre just losing out on the fun in gaming

I guess it's not the same feel getting stuck on ios.
You don't really get that sweaty hands around a controller or mouse feel.
