According to Ekow Eshun's definition, ideal art enables deep introspection and consideration. That in itself is a highly subjective experience entirely based on the observer/participant/user. The same pangs of fear I felt playing Silent Hill 2 were felt looking at Francisco Goya's "The Shootings...

I'd get a Nyan Cat. Because bitches love the Nyan Cat. <img src="http://www.digyourowngrave.com/content/nyan_cat.jpg" align=center> ...right?

That sums up my own thoughts on the subject. Of course, the real significance I believe lies in social application. There are games which militaries use to teach their soldiers how to kill...and then there are games like Portal which teach its users to think critically about, well, I'm not too sure.

Money. Something they're "good at" is making epic RPGs...but those titles take painstaking years and resources to produce. They just wanna make more money and the best way is to open up their franchise options. But I agree. They're entering a highly saturated market owned by much more...

Well said. Ditto on the "depends" clause.

As a former editor for a newspaper and creative fiction class, no. Referencing my argument below: I'll plot out three major flaws in your writing. - Your descriptors are too simplified. The adage "show, don't tell" holds true now, you MUST get used to describing sensations and action...

The rendering power of PS1 is laughable compared to modern tech. No surprise on graphics as the most cited aging consideration. We like pretty people and we hate ugly things. Unless mediocre/simple visuals is a core, artistic gimmick (i.e. Minecraft, Parappa) people really hate ugly-looking...

Check aaaaaaand check. Well, minus the sex and pooping part.

A little creepy but, from an artistic standpoint, the adaptations are brilliant. Can you imagine the effort put into doing 493 of these things!? It takes a lot of skill to make simply one. Creepy, but commendable.

Cloud from FF7. I'd be a whiny little *****, too, if... A) My boss burned my house down B) My mother was in said house. C) A firing squad killed my best friend. D) I suffered from radiation poisoning. E) My ex-boss stabbed my girlfriend in the back. It's called post-traumatic stress...

Zombies - Honestly, you guys scare the sh-- out of me. I don't want the world ending in cannibalism. Turn-based RPGs - Seriously, everyone, go wild. Bludgeon each other to death. This isn't chess. Naruto - I hate your emphasis on brotherhood, aka, Naruto-Sasuke. No one cares. The plot is...

A) I'll respawn. Just you wait. I'll respawn and beat the living shi- B) Cocaine's a hell of a drug.

Much against fanboy sentiment, the Final Fantasy VII Remake. I don't think it going to happen. The producers want to move on with their lives already.

Kimahri from FFX. His character was so flat and underdeveloped. The game really didn't need him because he contributed so little to the plot line.

Yeah, lol. It's heavily implied but not explicitly stated. Wrestlers get a lot of shit from their companies if they threaten the scripted nature of the business. Triple H got demoted to the "minor league" for breaking character during a show. For hugging and cheering on two wrestlers?real life...
