Actually, playing on casual is a big deal for some games.

Not a fan of this kind of thing. If the buyer is expected to pay full price then don't restrict content. Last stage, hard mode, etc. The ign guy posted a response to this as well. Pixeljunk looks kind of shady in all this.

Lots of companies won't unlock certain things, such as a harder difficulty level, unless you play on one. But they're open about this.

What bothers me more in the context of reviews is that some games just suck on casual but are fun on harder levels.

And I think reviewers should disclose what they play on for that reason. Or, more likely, reviewers should play on what they feel their audience will play on.
