Apples and oranges
AAA Games (Call of Duty, Assassin’s Creed) = Blockbuster Movies (Transformers, Inception)
MMOs (World of Warcraft, EVE Online) = TV Shows (Sopranos, Mad Men, Firefly)
Social Games (Farmville, Baking Life) = Reality TV (Big Brother, Top Chef)
Indie/art games (VVVVVV, Braid) = Indie/art films (Primer, Blue Velvet)
No genre can be inherently “better” than another. They’re all different forms of media geared towards different audiences that can and should be critiqued differently.
