While we're being precise:

Re: Games as an art form (split from sine mora thread)
This is an interesting topic.
Art is an insular thing, the act of processing one's own emotion. It's specific to each person.
And the whole point of a "game" is to allow the player to create their own art through play. The game is the vehicle for art.
But when a developer makes the game itself art, then there are some interesting conflicts. It's no wonder some players can feel denied or cheated by these un-games.
But I don't think they should just disappear. If an average guy chooses to pick up C++ instead of a paintbrush, then that's cool. It just gets a little more difficult to find games that are meant to be played.
