So, here's something interesting that most people hopefully also think about. Video games can be absolutely gorgeous. If it's just a character model for a game you're playing, to the environments that you're running through. I actually heard someone talking about it, or maybe I was having the conversation with someone...besides the point, it was the topic of whether or not video games can be considered an art. By that I mean, can it be put into the same category that drawing and music can be put in. I know some people may not think music is considered an art, but enough people think it is. A few things I hope to accomplish here...

1) Post some of your favorite environments / character models / etc etc. Things you find beautiful / cool looking in video games that you've played.

2) Discuss whether or not the making of a game can be considered a legitimate art. And possible discuss whether or not playing a game could be considered the appreciation of said art.

Doesn't have to be serious, it's just something that's on my mind and I thought it'd be fun to talk about. The reason I really brought it up is to post a picture of the recent boss I fought in Torchlight II.
