The French consider video games "The Tenth Art," alongside the traditional arts of painting, sculpture, dance, poetry, and others.

Why would the French have any more authority on the subject than anyone else?

Hey guys, if video games are now art, could we maybe see them at institutions worldwide? This might sound weird, but it'd totally be awesome to play some old games or consoles (Magnavox, Atari, etc.) at a museum or something.

Maybe. It depends if people think that's good art. Silly
Really though, this should have been an easy decision. Aside from the fact there is actual art used to make the game, you're basically painting the landscape with destroying enemies, making environments, what have you. I do actually wonder what all those official naysayers have to say about this decision.
