i dont really care for graphics... i mean as long as its suitable (think SC) im ok with it. but what if there was a game that had the best graphics in the world but it sucked. would you consider it as an art or as a sad excuse for a game?
Halo and Halo2 are masterpieces

The Graphics in Unreal Engine 3 is a master piece.

Games are pieces of engineering which have to be built around specific parameters in order to function correctly, just like all engineering marvels. Art, however, can be done in any way.
In art, you already have the materials that you will work with. During the engineering process, you have to create your materials and then work with them.
This last statement can be transfered to a game, you need to create the engine before the storyline, characters and the enviroment.
In essence, creating games is an engineering proccess and not art.
Engineering > Art

eh? just to point out to u, "Characters" is part of the storyline, so u basically just said "storyline" twice in that sentance..moving on.
ya your probably right, but here's my opinion of how it works. They cant really created digital characters(your engineering) w/o the pictures of the actual people, so the artists make their paintings, story and all that crap needs to come first.
