I'd say art is when you use something to tell other's a message, much like Kojima does. He built up his franchise MGS because it looks appealing to people, the story is interesting, the characters are interesting but that is not important. Kojima puts messages into his games but who would listen to his messages? He makes those games to get fans, who then listen to him. Too bad most fans ignore those messages, this is my definition of art.

kojima is the truth...my fav video game series is indeed the Metal Gear Solid series.

@jdkjkjdkjdks how so? Unless you mean to say that all games are art.

[emlmm88]

@ClickForOutkast I could agree. If that is true however, cod could be considered art. And by that definition it is.

[jdkjkjdkjdks]

Games are art. This genius is an idiot to believe it otherwise.

i don't want a PS3 as i don't like them but i want to play MGS4 but if it goes on xbox it will be ruined AAAAAH

[natespears14]

he truly is a genius, enough said

@dkc4475 I don't give a fuck about your opinion. If movies are considered as art, so can be epic games. And what about those douchebags that chain and starve dogs in museums, or corpse galleries? Everything can be considered as art these days.

@WorldOfSnakes Yeah the product placement in MGS4 was insane. There was random Apple stuff lying around everywhere. Snake even had an i-Pod in his inventory lol. It was a bit of a weird decision given that the game was made exclusively for the PS3. You'd think Sony would have had something to say about it, given that most of the advertisements were for rival companies lol. Microsoft certainly wouldn't have stood for it.

[WorldOfSnakes]

@l3awl3ag I'll tell you what I didn't like about the game...remember on the ship in the end, when Otacon opens his laptop and we see and APPLE on it? Or when Naomi picks up her cell phone and it's a NOKIA? This really bugged me...

[l3awl3ag]

@WorldOfSnakes Sorry I did rant a bit lol, the contradiction just annoys me. Mainly because Kojima must have put it there knowingly, which does seem arrogant to me.

But anyway.. I played through the game again last week, and I enjoyed it. I just had to put up with that one little section in act 3 that I hate, and then it was back to the good stuff lol.
