No? They're completely worthless for gaming. It's not going to be anywhere near the norm for some years to come. If I'm able to run BOINC, SWG, WoW and have my BOINC work on 2 computing tasks without any major loss of time, why oh why would you ever need a quad-core for gaming? Dual cores aren't even the norm yet, you should check Steam's survey:

I don't know whens the last time anyone has said:

Shoot! This new game is going to be so CPU heavy!
