here's why video games can (and occasionally are and will continue to) be
art:

Immersion. You're not watching a character on the screen, you are the
character. It can be just another form of storytelling... one that engages
the viewer directly.

I imagine a day when the opening feature at Cannes is an interactive
experience

*Ebert: How will that work? Every audience member sees a different image?*

*I believe video games will never be great art. Whether I'm right or
wrong, video
games are not movies. *
