Watching TV/movies, playing videogames, and reading fiction are all low ROI tasks.

However, there's a strongly implied but not explicitly stated connotation that videogames are for socially inept losers and watching TV/Movies is what regular people do. Personally speaking, I've gotten to a point in my life where 99% of TV bores me to death (I almost need to get high to sit and vegetate through it all). I used to watch a lot of sports, but the older and older I get — the more I realize that it has no bearing on my personal life and is at best a distraction preventing me from attacking real issues head-on.

Most videogames bore me too, but the few that I do find entertaining are competitive multiplayer ones. I had to force myself to stop playing, because they were stressful and I'm a competitive person. When I see a kid who can play 60 hours a week every week beat me, I know deep down I could destroy them if I put in the hours. But then you're back to square one in the negative feedback loop, investing a plethora of hours into yet another meaningless endeavor which could have been better allocated into higher ROI tasks that generally lead to higher levels of gratification (albeit, delayed).

The one caveat with TV shows and movies, is they're a great conversation filler. If you know various quotes, memes, and innuendos to a popular show, you can better connect with a person without really saying anything particularly witty or profound. The ability to do this with videogames as a social mechanism is far less pronounced and just thinking about it intuitively it has connotations of being extremely socially stunted (though that might be due more so to social value assignment that society places on things rather than it being the actual reality of it).

EDIT: Should be prefaced, try to view this from the context of inter-gender and in-person conversations rather than just socializing in general.
