       Here's an open discussion thread relevant to my field: If you believe that video games are art (as I do), what is it about them that makes them art to you?

       @KevSaund I think it may be less a question of whether artistic status makes them better - they're the same game whether you say it's art or not - but rather whether that status makes them more worthy of being seriously examined. In other words - is there a difference between "art" which is to be analyzed seriously, and "game" which is to be played casually, or can the two statuses coexist? To be poetic: should art be played and games critiqued?
