I have played Ico before. Gotta admit, I WAS impressed by the visuals and the overall story.

I'm not dead yet.

So, WHOO I win the "He who has played Ico before dying wins" game. What do I get? An achievement? Some Rep points? Unlockable bonus content?

Seriously. As much as Ico is considered a highly artistic... piece, I could say the same about Super Mario Bros. 3 and not be wrong. Because, in my subjective opinion, anything that delves into my psyche and brings out emotion (whether that be rage, joy, satisfaction, whathaveyou) is worthy of being called art. Hell, a good joke is art to me. If I can laugh until I cry, that's bringing forth some powerful emotion.

Ergo, defining art is like defining normal. There is no universally accepted definition for either, and because the human race is a race of individuals, there never will be.

I submit that BOOGERS are art. Because I say so.
