As an artist, I respectfully disagree with you that video games fall under the umbrella of art.

If writing is an art form... if story telling... is an art form... then a video game based on story and writing is, art. I didn't play FFX because of it's twitch gameplay. I played it to find out what happened to Tidus. It moved me, and millions of other people emotionally far beyond "push x really fast and beat bad guys up".
Remember that Japanese commercial for the PS3 remake? Where it's nothing but the music of the game and people crying? Some games do fall under the same umbrella of art. Not all, but some. There is no difference in a good movie, song or game.

Just because something has a story doesn't mean it's art. Period.
EDIT: FFX SUCKS! Imho.

I'm really curious to know what you define as art. Please enlighten me.
