We shouldn't only focus on the visuals - video game music has been arranged/adapted and played by very well respected orchestras, and the storylines of many games would have been worthy of any book.Originally Posted by injung
I agree, and think Reggs' example of Half-Life 2 is perfect (not to scoff at the design). It's a dystopian nightmare on par with Gilliam's Brazil. I just chose the examples I did because I thought they were most apparent without providing a rundown. Another great example is BioShock, which is Warren Spector's response to objectivism, and a game I can't get my mind off in the weeks following its completion.
On the topic of game music: I'm going to school for electronic music composition specializing in scoring, and my most-used tool is a sid synth, which is based on the chip that powered the Commodore 64. Music in games has definitely has a profound impact on me thanks to the likes of Yuzo Koshiro and Jun Fukuda.

I think this article may serve as a guide http://www.contempaesthetics.org/new...?articleID=299.
The games you mentioned although good artistic video games cannot turn the medium into an art yet, unless masterpieces are developed and adopted.

I don't want to jinx it but The Last Guardian will probably be the best game of all time.

Surprised the OP (based on his handle and avatar) didn't also include Grim Fandango on this list.

This is one of my all-time favorites. Sure it is dated now, but the actual theme, story telling, and music all play out well.
