I personally do not fill that the video game is an art. It takes a lot of technology to make a video game and again the game is part of developing logic and more or less played with mind, where as the art is totally different. Art is the expression of an individual that usually comes from heart and it has nothing to do with the mond or logic. so videogame is not an art.

It's like the difference between erotic art and pornography. You can tell by looking at them side by side, some are art, some are just pictures of nekkid folks doin it. If you spend enough time around video games, the stories, general feel, visual aspects, etc will stand out on some of them. That's when it's art. Just because you're able to interact with it doesn't make it less valid.

Art is defined as anything which is created by a person which is asthetically pleasing. Theoretically most things are art. If you take a bicycle it is art as someone took the time to design it and make it look pleasing to the buyer. Computer games are an art form as they are carefully designed and scripted by artists and graphic designers before being programmed.

I would say that video games are definatley an art form just as much as a movie is. video games infact encompass many different art forms such as Composers, Musicians, Artists, Graphic Artists, Voice Actors, and Writers. I would most definately say that it is an art form.

Sure it is. Why would you think it was not an art form. Art can be interpreted in numerous ways. Just as a paper bag floating in the breeze could be considered art.

confident they are for various reasons. First, the story somebody has to return up with in unique video games. needless to say, you have have been given video games like Castlevania which take its tale from Bram Stoker's inventive artwork, yet some game recommendations are unique to the video game designers. (ie Megaman sequence) 2nd, somebody has to return up with unique music for those video games. somebody has to industry those video games to the everyday public. of direction they are an artwork variety, yet now and returned they are basically borrowed from different artists.

Playing a game is definately not an art, but creating one IS.

Of course they are art! Just look at all the marvelous details and graphics that go into them. This takes a lot of hard work and dedication.
