The opposite to a dedicated video gamer. Casuals are generally new to video gaming and have small experience. Common definitions of Casual gamers are... 1. Don't play games that often 2. Gamers limited to a few popular mainstream genres (sports, racing, FPS) i.e Call of Duty. They don't expand to other types of genres (RTS, TBS, RPG) i.e any strategic game. 3. Gamers who play recreationally; for fun, rather then play more competitively 4. An insult used by more hardcore/elitist gamers who believe casuals are gaming scum (for most of these reasons) 5. Gaming Rookie or Newbie (not noob) 6. Those who play more simpler games (Facebook games, Flash games, Mobile Games, F2P). See 2. as well 7. Undedicated gamers (cheap computers and console/handheld users). It's all to one's opinion and perspective. Also, casuals sometimes get caught in the crossfire of ''The Great PC vs Consoles War'' where the ''PC Master Race'' duke it out with the ''Console Peasants''. Though it doesn't happen usually.
