No problem! As a late gamer myself I like to encourage other people to play some of the games that really convinced me that games are worth playing. But I also started without any consoles or even a gaming computer - I actually bought a used N64 off Amazon about 5 years ago (so about 10 years after people stopped playing them) and later got a PS2. My whole philosophy, after realizing that I really loved games, was that buying the last generation of consoles was the best deal, because every game I'd buy would already have a large number of reviews and ratings to let me know whether it was worth the $2 it'd cost me. But I got fully committed, got a PS3 and became an avid user of Steam and have loads of wasted hours under my belt, both hours that were worth it and ones that definitely weren't.

I think that even though it's become obvious that games are a lucrative business, they're not treated as art in terms of visuals OR storytelling by the wider media, and so the communities stay a niche thing and aren't super open to new people. I still don't really feel like I can call myself a 'gamer' because I'm not part of the community. But there are gorgeous games like Limbo (or console ones like Journey, or Shadow of the Colossus) and there are fantastic stories like The Cave (or ones like Heavy Rain or The Last of Us or even Red Dead Redemption) that they are really worth getting into. It's just so weirdly hard to get involved in the gaming community and get good recommendations as a beginner that I think a lot of people who would otherwise really find them wonderful and fulfilling never even bother :\
