probably 13 came up and said, "Legend of Zelda is such a gay game!"
"Why do you say that?" I inquired
"Because you run around as a gay little elf!"
"You're retarded" I replied.
"You know what is an awesome game" he said "WWE vs Smack down!"
"Now THAT'S a gay game! You watch 2 muscular sweaty men in underpants touch each other!"

And that conversation is supposed to get us to side with you, is it?

Laughable.
Pretty much this, but I'll side with the 13 year old just because your counter argument really did suck.
I'm still enjoying the irony of his stupidity, as he's clearly so uneducated himself that he can't understand people hold different opinions.

They didn't grow up with those games, you can't expect them to have the same impact on some kid now as they did to kids when they were first released.
This answers your question.

Also, you lowered yourself to his level by calling him retarded.

Oh, hello there, I'm a 15 year old who loves the LoZ games. Don't generalize me with those kind of people. Every time you do something like that, a puppy cries.
This, oh god this. Took the words right out of my Mouth Text box?

When the title said uneducated, I thought you meant about the way kids think, speak like some stupid Tim Westwood wannabe nd dey alwaiz seem 2 spel fings lyk dey r retarded, yet still remain under the delusion that its cool and the correct way to spell.

OT: I applaud you standing up for Zelda, so many years of youth spent on that little guy *sniff*.
Seems that most games are seen as "gay" if your not, ironically, walking round as a muscluar beefy guy who communicates by grunting his way through the game.

For the love of fuck! A game can't be gay! It is not a living creature, therefore it does not have a sexual orientation!

Also, you shouldn't have payed attention to the kid, or at least you should have respected his opinion, which is a golden rule on these forums and in life.

Am I the only one offended by the fact this argument apparently happened in church?

also, it is incredibly churlish of you to believe this young man should share your opinion; as stated before, the reason there are so many different types of games is that there are many different types of people, with differing tastes, to be catered for.

This sort of thing makes me lose faith in people, and I hate that.

So tonight at church
That's where you've gone wrong, really think you'd get intelligent gaming conversation there?

Or that you'd be capable of it in any case?

That wouldn't have anything to do with homophobia. It's the youths new word for stupid or lame because they don't like using words with 4 letters or 2 syllables when 3 letters and 1 syllable work.

But it isn't just youth that's uneducated, it's people in general. Seniors show total ineptness with technology, which is really sad because most tech toys come with manuals that explain everything quite well so they either can't read or aren't willing to. Most youths are so used to having everything handed to them that they can't figure anything out for themselves.

Fun statistic for my local area. Somewhere around 80% of the people here can't read above the 4th grade level, and they manage to graduate high school somehow?

Lawl, you called a little kid retarded? Bahahaha :p

Anydangways, while Peaches there goes off and starts being emo in a corner, I'll just say that different people like different things. I do agree, though, that he hasn't grown up with them (seriously, Link to the Past = awesumsawce), and maybe you could take into account what kind of people his parents are (from the look of it, they're probably sports fans who think anything not sweaty and full of pain is "gay").

However, I do agree with you about younger generations not "knowing their stuff". A few weeks ago, I was talking with a little kid about Pokemon (the little dude loved em). He told me, though, that he didn't know who Hitmonlee was, and I wanted to cry. I don't even want to ask kids if they know who Lolo or Geno are. I guess we can't expect them to know EVERYTHING, cuz I mean, heck, we've got over a decade of gameplaying under our belts (some have even more), and those kids haven't even been ALIVE that long. Maybe just give the poor guy the benefit of the doubt, yeah?

Comgratulations, you deraded yourself by yelling at a little kid. I hope your proud of yourself.

WWE vs Smackdown is actually a pretty fun game, there is a lot you can do in it.

Granted Legend Of Zelda is better. But still. He might just prefer those type of games. I havea friend of plays exclusivley Sports games. And another who just plauys the basketball ones.

They are not uneducated, if any one is, you are, for not realising that they might have a preference towards something.
If you're going to flame someone at least check your spelling. A normal debate is not possible with these little kids, you have to fight fire with fire.

Also LOL at the people hating on Zelda. they love the game deep down, but want to look different by not liking popular games. Unless they never played Zelda, in which case I feel bad for them :(

Actually, they aren't uneducated, they have probably got a longer education than their parents (I use the term lightly),they're just idiots who don't listen, and assume anything that requires thinking on a level higher than "bash teh buttonzzz" is GAY and RETARDED. This is simply because they have no form of intelligence and hate everything they don't understand. They only play 'sports' games because they are on TV and gain understanding of them from sitting beside their alcoholic parents watching it in the evenings getting brainwashed into thinking it's all for manly men and that kind of ridiculous bullshit.

OT: OP, your argument doesn't exactly win me over, your argument was only marginally less stupid than his but that is the only way to get through to the little bastards... However you raise a good point, however vaguely.

Everything they hate is "gay".
Freddy Mercury was gay, therefore "gay" just means "awesome". The youth have it all wrong.
I thought he was bi?
Close enough. He was straight and gay, he's just that awesome.

Taste is learned. You have to experience both before you realise the difference between quality and crap, otherwise, how will you know what makes X such a good thing? X is only good because it is better than Y, otherwise it would be average, wouldn't it? I used to like Simple Plan for fuck's sake.
Hell, at least you didn't listen to Backstreet Boys.

OT: You were both being rude, brutish and not very bright. His opinion may be different from yours, and hell, he's a kid! Relax, man. Let him play what he wants and you play what you want. Then you're both happy!

Also, your church actually let's you play music on their piano? I couldn't even get upstairs in mine.
