The Casualisation of Video Games: Myth or Reality?

Have video games become increasingly 'casualisied' in the wake of the advent of mobile games, the Wii generation and micro transactions? Or have console games simply become more complex with an increasing number of barriers to entry being raised? Join Brendan and Zach as they discuss the differences between casualisation and accessibility and why the picture may not be as bleak as some 'hardcore gamers' would suggest.
