So I was reading through my recent issue of Play magazine and they had an article about the recent Hollywood and Games conference, basically it's a conference to build better relations between the two forms of media. One of the things the article brings up is an old Roger Ebert quote where he basically says that games can never be considered art. This also reminds me that Hideo Kojima had made a similiar comment in another article I have from a year ago.

So the question stands... Can videogames be considered art?
