What is each gaming system's piece of art? (I don't think the 360 has one)

I would say the Wii has SMG as close as it can be, PS3 has The Last Guardian, and the PC has plenty too. But the closest the 360 has was the original Gears, which is so stunted from being art thanks to its lackluster story. And yes, I'm flamebaiting a little on purpose.

Limbo could probably be the 360's one.soulitane

This puts your life at ease, and therefore it is art imo

The Path seem a nice fit for the PC,but there´s just too many on the system to choose just one,especially indie games.

I would guess Limbo for the 360,the upcoming TLG for the PS3 and I´m not sure as far as the Wii is concerned.

Banjo kazooie nuts and bolts

I agree with this. Some are arguably trash but so is some art :P.

Wii - Okami, Marumasa, SMG2

PS3 - Heavy Rain, TLG, MGS4

360 - Limbo, Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts

PC - (honestly I hardly play the obscure titles) too many to list haha.

define 'piece of art' TC.

Limbo, Alan Wake. I loved the flashiness of Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2, as well, and the new XBLA title, ilomilo.

Limbo, Alan Wake, Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 and ilomilo are my picks, for the 360.

Heh, beauty is in the eye of the beholder I suppose?

Indeed. Stalin vs Martians this gen as well.Arach666

No it isn't. 50 Cent : Bulletproof is the real masterpeice 8) To quote Alex Navarro, "Someone should have shot this game 9 times instead."

So Gears is shunted from being art because of it's lackluster story, but SMG is ok? ?

oh you mean the game with the best art style on each console? or what?

video games = art

I would say Limbo as well. For 360, because you seemed to struggle with that one TC. Kirby's Epic Yarn on Wii and Flower on PS3.

The Wii has a ton by necessity, I would list all the obvious ones but for the sake of not being redundant, I would add the No More Heroes duo. The games reek of style, both gameplay and graphics wise, so I feel its worth mentioning :)

Art is way too subjective to be clearly defined obviously. Personally, I greatly enjoy games that create that perfect balance between both technical and artistic graphics, such as Half-life 2. The Last Guardian isn't even out yet, but chances are that will follow the same suit as well.

Piece of art? Can you clarify what you mean by that exactly? Because video games in general can be considered an art form.

Also do you expect to be taken seriously when you admit you're flamebaiting?

Art is the expression of the human mind. In this case the author yearns to craft physics defying trucks. :P

What was that one downloadable title for ps3? It was 3 bucks, and was advertised as "is it a game" or something along those lines. I think it started with an L, but can't remember. Maybe that, since it most certainly didn't seem to be a game in any normal sense of the word.

This right here. Best/2nd best game on the 360.

Right, quite the odd game/art/interactive thing.

I don't think there has been any game this gen I would legitimately feel comfortable as calling a work of Art.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"] For the Wii? Okami. Cave Story. MadWorld. Super Mario Galaxy. Muramasa: Demon Blade. So many titles on the Wii! :Dcharizard1605

It has more of a claim at being legitimate art then most of the reject, try to hard titles this gen has praised as great at the very least. A game that embraces being a GAME above all else will always win in that regard.

For PC, maybe Cryostasis, The Path, The Void and Zeno Clash. STALKER: SoC was pretty amazing in many ways, artistically too.
