Now that games are art here are some of the opening exhibits

After all the debate games have been excepted as a form of art. And they have added a section to the Smithsonian just for games. You can see Pac-Man, Super Mario Brothers 3, the Legend of Zelda, Doom 2, Tomb Raider, Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy VII, and a ton more. Having games accepted like this has got them included in some grants for art programs even (as long as they are considered an art game) and it may finally help to get people to stop using them as scapegoats.

Just think of all those times your parents gave you crap about playing games, you were studying art.
