The basic definition is obviously someone who plays games. There's different kinds of gamers such as hardcore gamers and casual gamers, but that's not the question here... I think a slightly more specific definition of a gamer is someone who plays games regularly, any more specific would probably be going too far into a specific type of gamer.

A gamer, in my opinion, is someone who truly enjoys playing video games, and does so if time allows them. A true gamer never goes by ratings, or what's hot out in the market. To a real gamer, a 2/5 rated game could be just as fun as Halo, or World of Warcraft. He/she must see the game for what it really is...

A little corny, but that's my opinion.

Nice to see you, Mark ;)
