There are two ways to classify gamers, by time and genre.
Time: The basic and easy to define archetype.
Casual: These gamers often log less than 20 hours of play time a week
Core: The bulk of gamers, the play usually between 20-30 hours a week
Hardcore: These gamers manage to log 30-40+ hours a week. I fit into this genre.
-SubCore: Gamers that would be hardcore, but are restricted on time, because of parental/girlfriend/boyfriend interference.
Lead: These are the gamers you see at the top of the leaderboards, and statistically, for most games, these people work less than 20 hours a week. for most games this is the line you don't want to cross.
Which gamer archetype describes you?
The nachos you make in the middle of a long gaming session. Consists of whatever cheese you have laying around (usually Kraft or Velveeta) melted over chips. Made very quickly because you need to get back to gaming.
I made some gamer nachos between COD matches, really helped me power through the next 4 hours.
When you get so mad that you start saying slurs, like a gamer would, which is where the name comes from

Someone who claims to be a gamer, however, all he does that is game related is play free-to-play iPhone games. He probably doesn't own any form of gaming console. The only game probably plays besides iPhone games is Roblox.

Chris: Sure!
WIlliam: Hey guys! I got this new cool iPhone game!
Bill: Shut the fuck up, Wlliam! You are such an iPhone Gamer!
The default clothes to wear when you have no intention of leaving the house because you'll be spending the rest of the day playing online games. Typically, the gamer uniform consists of: underpants; t-shirt; you're unwashed; unshaved; a cup of coffee nearby; snack food.
Sorry, I can't answer the door because I'm only wearing my gamer uniform.
Someone who isnt really a gamer but has some indicators that can make others believe they are one.
