Art and Gaming In Okami

While Okami captures the visual beauty of painting and takes up the paintbrush as a tool in the game, Inaba bristles at the idea that his work could itself be considered art. "Personally, I do not like it when games are called 'art,'"says Inaba.

"Art is created by artists and artisans for people who appreciate art. Games are made to be enjoyed by gamers."
-- New York Daily News - Entertainment - Thinking outside the box

Interesting distiction. Can't gamers appreciate both?
