Is it reasonable to consider computer games as art?

Adams defines art in many aspects.

"Art has content " : That means something must be expressed . In order words, art is expressive.

" Art has an aesthetic" : Since he mentions that art should appeal to us in some ways , a work of art should contain some aesthetic elements, such as the richness of the figure, the depth of the paintings.

"Art contains ideas" : He mentions that art is a form which has a capacity to express the ideas. In this point , he admits that some games are able to contain ideas.

"Art makes you feel things" : This is an abstract idea that it talks about what art about.

"Art is not formulaic" : A good art is that it does not formulaic. No formula exists in order to construct an art work .

"Utility and Saleability" : The focus of an art work should on what you have to say and not whether it can appeal to the customers.

For me, I do not agree with the point ,' Art is not formulaic' . I guess some painters may paint in their own style , so as to the craftmanship . I see this kind of "Formula" as a style of their own. Also, different art movement is found, such as impressionism and mordernism. This may also a kind of style , not a formula.

According to Adam, viedo games should follow what the public seeing the art form is . Viedo requires more aesthetic . Since the greatest art work can raise the discussion endlessly so the viedo games should challenge the player.
