<p>Video Games are an art form. I am not the first person to think, say or type this statement. Stephen Totilo has called video games the fourth medium. I&#8217;m pilfering this blog&#8217;s name from a presentation Dennis Dyack gave at Brock University entitled &#8220;Video Games: The Eighth Art.&#8221; We can argue about graphics, design choices and features, but when we can have emotional experiences with a controller in our hands, there is no argument. Games are art.</p>
