And the thread goes on with "my opinion is a fact"... |
Which exclusive games are the best will be a discussion without end, even when facts will be thrown in the battlefield, there is no way one party will convince the other.
However, a fact is that the attempt that third parties and first parties from Xbox360 and PS3 have done in converting this medium into an artistic form of its own (that goes beyond the artistic aesthetic of how cute Mario looks in Nintendo's last game and how fun is to fly Mario with his new ear-wings) has more weight than anything that can be argued against. Videogames are bound to be regarded as singular artisct experience that will focus in the user experience through his interactivity with the virtual world, the decisions he makes that affect both this world and the STORYLINE, and the emotions this evokes.
No other art form can provoke this experience and emotions, and Nintendo is not doing anything in this field to be part of this movement and in fact, they are the main detractors of this along with downloadable games from iPad and iPhones which give only disposable and superficial experiences. If you guys prefer these games that is your problem, but playing a gotcha match with your friend will never be as meaningful as watching the Mona Lisa or listening to the Ninth Symphony, not for humanity.

Perfect example. Thank you to prove my point. Like I said, this goes on "my opinion is a fact"...

I am not making an opinion. I am stating a fact. Look for a definition of art. Try to find a form of art that lets you have control and impact the the work of fiction and receive feedback from it through emotions. Analyze what videogames do regarding this concept. See what Nintendo has done and is doing to enrich such experiences in videogames.

Art:: "the expression or application of creative skill and imagination, especially through a visual medium".
So, how that's implying a story? or the ability to modify it? Do you listen to music because of story? So an instrumental it's not art?
About the other 2 things up there:
-Why? Because you decided it? because I don't give a s*it about the ability to interact with the story line. I mean if I can play a game like that ok it's intersting but it doesn't mean it's a feature to apply to every game. Does a racing game need a story?
-Yes me and my friends having good time playing togheter is a lot more meaningful for humanity than watching a game alone like Heavy Rain and say: "Oh shit it's like the Ninth Symphony!", sorry. (btw. the Ninth Symphony/ Mona Lisa? LOL)
