I don't judge games by their cover, I play them and then make up my mind. Hardcore gamers are the opposite - they laugh at a game like "Party Babyz", even though they would never be caught dead playing it, or anything like it. I don't see how they call themselves gamers with such superficial prejudices. It's an excellent game my friends and I have played all week. I'd prefer it over another ho-hum blood and guts shooter any day.
Hardcore gamers are not only stupid enough to buy a mediocre game because it has "mature" subject matter, they'll turn down a great game because they're worried it makes them look like a kid.
Dear hardcore gamers,
If you spend your free time playing video games, nobody will *ever* confuse you for a mature adult. Ever. No matter how much blood is on the cover, or how many alien brains you explode with fire grenades, they'll still think you're immature. Get over yourselves.
Do you think it's wise to claim you don't judge games by their covers, and then provide a link to the amazon forums, where you do nothing BUT judging games by their covers?
