    Yeah, that guy. His reviews have led me to some great movies over the years, but yeah, apparently thinks video games don't stand alongside movies as a medium of telling a story that could be considered as a work of narrative art. Would love to see his opinion on Walking Dead.

    TBH, I've always felt Ebert is someone who's sat on the throne of king of movie reviews for far too long. His comment about video games never being art just shows a narrow-mindedness stuck in an older time.

    I find a lot of games got me a lot more emotionally immersed in the story and characters then I do in films, especially this one.

    He'd probably say the walking dead is a rip off of cinema.
