Okay, I've now said this three times, Ck. Three times. I'm just going to copy and paste my reply: Again, you can insist that it's not "art," but the essential component of art I'm most concerned with is intellect or emotional sophistication, and Brain Age is clearly and directly more intellectually provocative. |
You definition of art is out of whack, just because something makes you think it's not art. I go back to the example of puzzles and crosswords. How is Brain Age art at all? Also, aesthetics are a huge part of art to ppl saying aesthetics in games aren't art.
This whole idea of Brain Age being appealing because it is art is bogus. Almost no one (except you) buying this game is sitting there and enjoying the 'art' in it. They are buying it to play a fun passtime game. It's a fun brain teaser not art and it's further from art than other games that only have some artistic elements as this doesn't have any artistic element in it whatsoever.
Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!
