I read somewhere that over half of all the worlds Gamers are aged over 21.
So it clearly is socially acceptable as an adult.
And come on, what is the harm in FIFA, PES, GT,Tekken, or Elder Scrolls. I can understand the objection to COD, GTA or Mortal Kombat, but not those games. They are very different.

I suspect more than half the world's Ultimate Frisbee players are over 21.
That doesn't make turning a thing for exercising boistrous dogs into an alleged sport acceptable either, so I'm not sure your point has any merit.

I could also suggest the same about watching Xfactor and Big Brother.

Yeah, but you'd be right about the X Factor. I don't understand the snobby Intellectual Fascism surrounding it.
There have been some very good and popular acts found on it. Unlike Big Brother, the contestants have talent (mostly).

I think it's basically because it's lowest common denominator TV aimed at idiots.

OK, explain this Intellectual Fascism surrounding X Factor
especially why the capital letters are necessary

That explains a lot
Is it worth explaining why a lot of people consider X Factor to be lowest common denominator TV, do you reckon?

I think he is Freefair too
It is half-term as well.

My objection
is that it's fucking pathetic. The fact that lots of tossers do it makes it worse, not better. cf liking the music of Elton John.
