Of course but he's still wrong.
Am I just too old for an Xbox?

Errrr, didn't you just say you've watched lots of films? I could equally well say that watching social realist films about the plight of miners in the 70s is escapism and lacking in social interaction.

Yes, but I took girls with me.
You haven't watched the first 15 mins, though. You've watched 5 mins from a point an hour in.

Of games? I'm old enough to remember Ping and the first Space Invaders! I saw the first 15 mins. It was shit.

I would probably want my child to play that game, depending on the content, but I wouldn't say the subject matter was for children.

Geek girls put out too.
Looks like one hell of a film. I will have to look out for that.

Those motor cars are stupid as well. Imagine having to have a man with a red flag walking in front of you!

Ah, cheers. Haenk. He did the Piano Teacher. I'll give it a go.

Now you're taking me out of context. Kabbes said I hadn't seen the start; I pointed out that I saw it alright. I didn't say it was all I'd seen.
Not of games, of a game. You can't just play a game for a few minutes against another individual and think you have experienced that game. You really haven't. You've experienced 5 minutes from out of the middle of it.
Also, your comment above is like saying you saw "Exiting the Factory" and declaring that you have seen films and they aren't for you.

The US remake is scene by scene similar, but do watch the original as it's better IME when you have no recognition of the actors.
The Piano Teacher is possibly the weirdest film I ever saw. I still don't know whether or not I actually liked it.

Don't be daft. You sound a bit cultish. Which shouldn't be a surprise.
"Daft"? Why is it daft?
A game has a learning curve, it has a language, it has an exploratory playspace, it has distinct phases of player experience. There are books and books written on this stuff. To declare that playing five minutes of a modern game against somebody else means you have experienced the game is utter tummyrot. It's worse than saying you have experienced a film because you saw five minutes from the middle of it.

Not even pac man, pong or space invaders?
I once worked in a factory (around 1976) where they were making the original "Pong" arcade game - used to have one of the enormous boards though never got it working ..
Pong (and Space Invaders, for that matter) bears about as much relevance to modern gaming as the aforementioned "Exiting the Factory" does to modern films. It's an interesting historical artefact, but talking about it is really not getting you anywhere in a discussion of modern games/
That's right. You're either a gamer or you are someone who enjoys social interaction. There's no middle ground.

Exactly.PMSL!
And oh, so true.
I'd bet they all played dungeons and dragons at school.

At last. A gamer with a degree of self awareness.
