As a rule whenever somebody starts with "I am to cool for..." it's a dead giveaway they are not cool, not at all.
You know that negative stereotype of gamers being "geeks and otaku" who sit in their mom's dimly lit basement playing video games all day long? You're attitude isn't helping change that at all. If we ever want gaming to be taken seriously it needs to expand past the core it has and gain mainstream acceptance. Sony helped out with the PS and PS2 and now the Wii is continuing the market expansion.
Just because your grandma enjoys bowling in Wii Sports doesn't mean you can't have fun in games catered to you. I hate the TV shows my grandma watches but that doesn't put me off of television. Why should it be any different with video games?
