My opinion is that video games have the potential of becoming one of the most advanced art forms. I don’t have interest in defining whether a video game is art or not. An art piece that intrigues me is an art piece with an interesting idea, expressed through a well-done and personal handcraft. If a video game has that, then it has every potential of being an art piece. Video games are not only influenced by traditional art forms, such as paintings, music and text. In addition they are connected through interactivity. As a contemplator of the art piece you’re actively involved in its existence.
