Kind of. Oddly enough the vidya industry is able to box with the film industry on its best day
>>
No, that goes to colorful blocks.

Out of all the forms of entertainment video games have the widest range, you can release a literal movie or book, add some interaction and that would be called a game. Everything from mobile shit to jrpgs or shooters are counted as games, its kind of pointless to group it as one thing.

Dumb thread. The lowest form of entertainment is drinking alcohol. It's literally poisoning your body and killing your brain cells. Still fun sometimes, but that's my definition of low
>>
>>379573402
No, it's capeshit or other similar bland action movies.

Spotted the underage poster

>>379573402
No, that goes to anime, sitcoms and reality television.
>>
>>379575164
Fuck off my post was the antithesis of drinking to get drunk. How worldy and mature you must be, sipping your craft stout with your lunch you millennial hipster. Adults drink to get drunk all the time btw because their lives suck. Maybe you'll grow up and understand one day
>>
>>379573402
Nah, porn is
>>
It's close, but >>379575286
Anime's a bit iffy, since it's true in general with potential for rare exceptions due to its broad scope, but even the most rancid meme game cleanly beats any sitcom or reality show.

I don't even play videogames anymore, I just write angry posts on /v/ about them.

Games where you can "turn off your brain" are down there with network TV and top 40 radio as low forms of entertainment. But games that engage you and really make your brain matter go pitter patter are up there with easy reading and quality TV for entertainment quality. Still nowhere near stuff like playing music, heavy reading, or actual creation of objects or ideas, though.

This. Hell, even it's even better than many "documentaries" because the information presented is just plain wrong so it kinda makes you stupider
>>
>>379573402
next to smearing shit on the walls of a public restroom, yes.
>>
>>379573402
It's more mentally engaging than many other forms of entertainment, posting on social media or watching reality TV or sports certainly isn't better.
>>
>>379576316
the exact same argument can be made for any of those you dense cunt, broad generalizations when you clearly don't know what you're talking about make you look like a fuckin idiot
>>
Pretty sure porn is
>>
>>379573402
No, that would be anything on TV.

Videogames, books, movies, are all mentally stimulating. TV seems to cause people's brains to turn to mush.
>>
>>379573402
TV is lower to be honest. I mean, in /v/idya you're at least doing something even if it's just clicking the mouse and kind of thinking, instead of just passively staring at the screen for hours. And man, some of this stuff they put on TV these days really is for fucking retards.

>"Anon, quit wasting time playing those video games!"
>Goes back to watching some drivel on television the entire night.

That would be porn

I wonder why the fuck King thought it was a fucking good idea to pander this to normies. A fucking literal let's play with a fucking playground course intended for manbabies.

There's also a Shazam show about guessing music titles. App-kino is here
