For some gamers, there’s only one way to play. For Hardcore, there’s only one kind of gamer. Guess which kind. Here’s where we really do "keep it real."

If you’re tired of griefers and cheaters and gamers who play less than ten hours a week, check out the Hardcorner for what real gamers want to hear about … the way they want to hear about it. Straight up. So quit wasting time anywhere else. Come to Hardcore’s Hardcorner, where we make no excuses and win with skill.

Oh, yeah, and remember—Hardcore’s a method, not a setting, and what Hardcore tells you ain’t always the only way. If you think you’re so smart, Hardcore wants to hear from you, if only to make fun of you or steal your ideas.

Send your hardcore tips to hccorner@hotmail.com. Hardcore might even credit you, but don’t count on it. Hate mail’s also welcome—Hardcore can always use a good laugh.
