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

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.

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

Also, Viva Pinata needs more love. The game is just so colorful and vibrant, and the pinatas themselves look really cool.Karnage108

Nothing. Video games are games, not art. If anything they are a design that contains and makes use of art assets.

What are you going on about? Why would someone who talks about art not be able to "truly understand" what art is? Is someone who talks about art automatically a dumb a-hole? Is it too "pretentious" to talk about art?Deathtransit

Art is art whether it is good or bad, which is subjective, but the word still has a meaning. Deathtransit

...haha no I don't have anything against the Xbox, I use mine for Fable 3, Halos, Gears, and some other singleplayer things. While I feel like that every gaming system has its original, amazing looking and often well told story, I feel that the 360 doesnt quite have one. I would have said Mass Effect 1 or 2, 1 being more obvious, since 2 is multiplat, but then again 1 is too. Blabadon

Limbo?

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.

360 has LIMBO, & until we see much of anything for TLA, LIMBO > TLA in terms of art.

Forgot Child Of Eden (kinect) now, did we? Made by the Japanese fellow who did Rez for Dreamcast. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EfjJeRzQ5M

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.

Huh, I dare say MS has some of the best... pick a Rare game, almost any game. :P

You've played The Last Guardian?AAllxxjjnn

this is an odd choice, but Halo: ODST was a beautiful moody game that gets overlooked due to the "halo" moniker.

art wise for PS3 i think Demon's Souls is obvious. and MGS4 was significantly more art than game.

Okami is the obvious, if not overly literal choice for Wii.

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

Really? I am perfectly comfortable saying GoW III and LBP are works of art. Different, of course, but both beautiful and very artistic in their approach to visuals. GoW III for it's intricately detailed world, where every object seems as solid as the material really is. LBP because it's just gorgeous, everything from it's cardboard cutout visuals to its lighting and music choices... very nicely done.
