Convenient how Roger "video games will never be art" Ebert died right before Bioshock Infinite and The Last of Us came out, two games that are undeniably art.

Artists themselves have trouble pinpointing what "art" is.

when it comes down to it though, art is whatever someone says is art, people are entitled to their own opinions of what art is but its completely relative.

I never like to say, "I'm glad 'x' is dead,", but I'm glad we no longer have to hear Ebert spew bullshit. That act was getting old, and fast.

He was willfully ignorant, and that pisses me off. Thatgamecompany offered to send him a PS3 with Journey so he could see that not all games are mindless escapism and some could even be called art, but he refused.

The joke is he apologized for his claim shortly after and said video games can indeed be art and he was a pretentious asshole for thinking otherwise but nobody ever mentions that part because blindly hating somebody is much easier.

He only ever apologized because he brewed up a shitstorm with his bullshit comments in the first place. It was a reactive action, not a proactive one.

You mean two games trying hard to be art

Seriously, fucking "Citizen Kane of gaming"?

Also, do people still think Eberts argument was just him being an old man?

It was pretty nuanced (Art requiring you to "win" at something and the nature of a game), even if I disagree with it.
