Who seriously gives a fuck what anyone considers art anyway, it's a subjective term. I don't play games for their artistic value anyway because I'm not a faggot.

He is right though. Video games are meant to be fun.

Correct.
They can contain art, but they aren't art themselves, they are games.

A majority of art has always been shit. Internet and television just helped expose that shit to more people. All shitty art from over 100 years ago is just lost to time cause it never spread like aids.

Ebert was a hack and constantly went back on his reviews if a film or genre he hated got popular later on

>Roger Ebert

He was fucking right, if you disagree you're a fucking child.
>>
>>386637203
He took back what he said shortly before he died, that and his reviews for movies are a mixed bag, so he can't be an authority on what is and isn't art.
>>
>>386637203
paintings, movies, music, literature, etc. isnĀ“t art either.

Some of each example is though, including games.
>>
>>386639151
you are a child for vilifying disagreement, because only from disagreement comes discourse.
>>
>>386639909
>so he can't be an authority on what is and isn't art.
He is as long as people treat him that way, not because of the inherent merit of what he actually said or retracted.

Correct.
They are games.

He backpedaled to weasel out ("I'm not fully authorized to speak on the matter"), instead of fully reversing the stance.

He shouldn't have even done that much. He was right.

It isn't subjective. It has a definition and video games fit that definition.
Many people think that art means high quality or sophisticated but this just isn't the case.
They're attributing things to the word "art" that aren't even described by it.
Because 4chan loves food analogies:
A pizza is a pizza. Making a pizza doesn't mean you have to make a tasty or conventional pizza. You can make quite a lot of things that would still fit the definition of pizza.

Art is trash. Than fucking god video games aren't art.

They don't need to be art to be worthwhile :^)

The guy may be long dead but /v/'s butthurt lingers on eternally, even long after /v/ all decided that they don't want video games to be art after all because that's what reddit wants and I never wanted it, don't look at me like that, you can't prove a thing
