You know what? YOU suck!

YOU'RE GONNA DIE, CLOWN!!

The only reason people won't call games or many other things art is because of pretentious ideas of what art is, and that's kind of ridiculous. Art could convey something about the human condition, sure. Or it could convey something about color. Something really obvious too. Something that the artist probably shouldn't have bothered conveying at all, but he was too stupid to realize it. Musicians express themselves artistically in the form of their compositions,how they play them, and with which instruments, not necessarily by telling us through sound that "sometimes, people is kind." Painters work with line and color for the sake of line and color. Likewise, the artistic relevance of video games shouldn't be decided entirely by something their craft isn't directly concerned with. The creative expression of video game developers is in the design of the video games, and there have been many wonderful things done, even if these things are accompanied by cheesy stories.

"As an artist, I see this as another way to explore the creative process," said an enthusiastic Connery. "Video games are an extremely popular form of entertainment today, and I am looking forward to seeing how it all fits together."

OMFG, stuff, so on.

I don't even really see why sites are posting this as news. I mean seriously, who the hell cares?

I agree, a Godfather game is every bit as cheap a cash-in as the Bad Boys: Miami Takedown game. Its existence is every bit as newsworthy.

The director of the movies telling them how much they suck, on the other hand, falls under "human interest".

Any thing that is an expression of humans is art. Regardless of others ability to appreciate it as such.

If one were to examine my feces, they would see the everday struggles I go through. The grief is present in its gritty texture and dark-brown hue. One whiff can fill a person with the greatest heartache. Surely this turd was shat in the name of lost love who will never again cook the delicious tender vittles I once loved so.

Not really. Just because you don't think The Adoration of the Magi is art doesn't mean it's not art. It's not really defined on a personal level.

You said nothing of interest in this post and didn't derail my point. The different posters posting different definitions of art bolsters my argument. There are more papers and books written about what is and is not art it is foolish to think there is a hard-coded definition. If you can find me one that everybody agrees on I'd like to see it.

I say that art is any creative thing made with the intention to either express something or to evoke a response.

[LOL]

Art is all of you shutting the fuck up.
