Young Clive Barker
Can Video Games Be Art? on Digital Trends is a podcast featuring an interview with Clive Barker in which the author comments on debate over whether video games can be considered art, a topic stirred by statements that they cannot by film critic Roger Ebert. Of course opposing opinions on topics like this cannot be tolerated, and a story about the podcast on GameDaily BIZ highlights the fact that Barker calls Ebert "a pompous, arrogant old man, and he's not going to stop us from making games or enjoying them or... making them art." For the record, old-timer Ebert is eleven years older than young Mr. Barker.
