Are video games art.?

What ever your opinion I would like to hear it in full. Ex: Yes, No, Pieces of them are... ect. I'm doing a thesis paper for my last college english class, and this is my topic. The more answers the better even if it's just one word. Thank you in advance.Are video games art.?
Yes, art is in everything....it sorrounds us all!
of course.Are video games art.?
in a way

4 some people
I think they are, but not in the traditional form. With new and new technology, these new forms of art will start to rise up, and I think they are great. For example, games are made the same way many Computer Animated Movies are, and now they have their own slot in the Oscars.Are video games art.?
Absolutely!
the graphics and designs
Yes. Video games are all the arts in one. There is graphic art. There is music.

There are stories. Many of the games are created using motion capture, which involes dance, martial, ect.



So how could something that requires so many artists to create not be considered art itself?
In the IT era, the graphic and designs in the game are very lively and attractive, the way of the designer does it just like a piece art in front of you. It is just another form of showing out in the video games, do you think so?
