I've often cursed video games for making me a piece of garbage who is antisocial and I wish I hadn't talked my mother into buying me that NES at a yardsale those many years ago. But truth be told, I have never turned down a social situation to go play video games instead. Exception: If I'm already at a social gathering and I THEN deem that it sucks... I have been known to leave on at least one occasion and ended up playing games instead.
I think I'm just a person that doesn't care to hang out with groups of people. I am easily annoyed by the acts that people put on and I don't want to be around them. People change when they are in groups and it drives me nuts.
Video games are just an excuse for not being good in social situations, they aren't a reason for it. For me anyway.
