pratty Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) How about "intelligent mature gaming"? Not very creative or catchy, but I think adding the word "intelligent" to the phrase negates the sexual connotations of the word "mature".

MoogleViper Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Unfortunately it seems that almost every adult synonym has connotation of either XXX/Nuts-esque or of being pretentious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 That's because all adults are either dirty perverts or pretentious arseholes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) Having said that, accusations of pretentiousness are often just the result of this anti-intellectual fashion in society. It's a little embarrassing. Edited November 15, 2012 by Daft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I think it's possible to be intelligent without being pretentious. But i agree about the anti-intelligent brigade these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I don't have any ideas, but I just want to throw out there that when I was 10 years old, I was playing C&C Red Alert, Tekken, Quake, Worms, Tomb Raider, Super Mario 64 and Resident Evil. What's with this new found distinction of Kids/Grown-ups games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a little embarrassing. I think it's that there's a fine line between being intellectual and being elitist. I mean, some people just don't think grown men should watch CBeebies.

Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I don't associate pretentiousness with intelligence, I associate it with people obsessed with ranking everything, including people, and always putting themselves at the top.
