Recently, for the second time, Roger Ebert made the claim that video games will never be art, or at least not for a very long time. Let’s ignore the fact that he just plain doesn’t play video games, and that his lack of knowledge on the subject completely voids his claim. Who is he, or anyone, to say what art is or isn’t?
I could spend my time and energy making an argument about this subject, or I could allow awesome webcomic artist Zach Weiner sum it up in one image:
Just brilliant.
