I agree. But there is one difference between watching a crappy TV show and playing a crappy Video Game: You are actively engaged in playing the game. No matter how trivial it is.

Of course, if you pick a more challenging game, like an RPG/Puzzle, then the difference grows greater.

I also agree that it is more fulfilling to create something.

Which is the reason why I myself like to create ...

...

video games! :)

Win-win: you get to create it, and play it.
