I don't see how you could lean forward like that unless you were running pretty quickly, in which case shouldn't he be taking longer strides..?

Yeah I brought that up but game art is usually not very good. You might look at a video game sprite or a background and think 'that looks pretty cool' but it's not very artistically viable.
i also think the olympics are terrible and are being held in a terrible country. i think the last time something cool happened in china was the 1400's.

I'm not talking about the game actually selling well or being mass-produced, I"m talking about the reason for it's existance. To sell. I think a video game could have componants to it that ARE art, but just not very good art. Like a 3D model, or the script.
also amnerika is farkin shredding everyone at the olympics. damn amelicans..
e: there are exceptions to video game art being terrible, like the character designs inPsychonauts or somethin.

The main reason videogames can't be art is because they're made to sell copies, not to express something. They're a consumer product. You can glorify games like Shadow of the Colossus but in the end it was made to pander to a specific audience.
