For lack of a better place to put this, and in proxy of writing a thoughtful response to the great game criticsm debate, I’m going to leave a link to this dude’s blog: http://www.henryjenkins.org/2006/07/more_on_games_criticism.html#more
I’ve been reading through it a little bit, and the dude is respected in legislative and academic circles, but I’m not sure he really “gets it” (particularly his post about “What happened to SWG”).

I’m not sure he really “gets it”
I’ll agree with this; the fact that he assumes the games-as-art battle to be won, and is simply waiting for the verdict to propogate via generational sea change, really goes a long way to explain that article’s self-assurance. I am an embarrassingly-vocal proponent of this medium’s potential, but I really can’t understand how he makes the leap from “Super Mario World is awesome” to “Super Mario World is comprable, in terms of artistic merit, to La Passion de Jeanne d’Arc.”
I’ll put it like this, I guess: I’ve become convinced that video games have the capacity to become their own art form; I have no such assurance that they will be, or even that, should they become so, they will be the same things we’re playing now.
