Well its just that the argument is so flipping old. From what you say, im gonna go ahead and say you are one of the more level headed people in this debate. but there is always gonna be some guy who needs to feel good about his favorite game in EVERY aspect, so if one little thing goes wrong, he hops on the "OMG MARCUS FENIX IS TOO A DEEP AND DEVELOPED AND RELATEABLE CHARACTER!!!!" its those people who upset me. not the ones who say "This is my opinion. take it or leave it." and I understand how this could link into the whole "fighting for your beliefs" issue, but seriously, video games of all things?nuba km said:I did the topic of why games are art because we were meant to write about something we like or care about I also gave the reason to why I think games are art making sample analyses of bioshock, silent hill 2, shadow of the callouses and limbo. my favourite game borderlands is bad art I can accept that and I know different people have different definition but this guys opinion is stupid and has no logic behind it just being grounded in the fact he is a fan-boy trust me the only game he plays is CoD and he dismisses everything else as stupid or 'gay'and trust me I have confidence and for the most part I don't care what people think of me I great my friends with a hug which is normally rejected but hey it's not like the world ended and I am too a person who thinks that some people should get over themselves and enjoy life. I did my presentation not to force people to accepted my opinion but to see why I spend so much time playing games and you took this forum all wrong either because I didn't phrase what I was trying to say or you had a bad day or you have had enough of people shouting GAMES ARE ART I'M NOT WASTING MY LIFE (thinking: please confirm this so I can feel good).Hussmann54 said:snip
So it wasnt really what you said, its just the topic itself... I care nothing for something that people feel the need to argue for (again, on a forum on the INTERWEBZ of all places) if its subjective.
and yes, I have been having a bad day,
