The Godfather of Hardcore Gaming Returns

The Metal Gear series is one of the key title that defines the mindset differentiation of hardcore gamer and casual gamer.  Wii has has built up the casual gamer space of the last year and has had the spotlight due to lackluster content offerings for the new PS3.  The hardcore gamer is feeling a bit left out and in need of a serious boost.  Just plug into a VOIP room on SOCOM. They are underwhelmed by PS3 and are playing old titles rather than buying new ones. The verdict is still not in on the newest Hideo Kojima title,  (although I have already seen quite a few glitch postings) but he is certainly the godfather of hardcore gaming. We need to recognize that not all gaming is alike when we think of how we brand and build value around these experiences.
