Are Video Games Art, Entertainment Or Both?

Show Notes

Art, entertainment or both? The heathens weigh in on this very controversial topic. The heathens get heated but not at each other which is a nice change of pace. Matt thinks everything is art, Marissa has two degrees, and Sacco has counter-points.

Games we talk about this week: Call of Duty, Fortnite, Apex Legends, Horizon, Dragon Age, The Last of Us, Pong, Tetris, Memoir Blue, three fourths home, Breathe of The Wild, Pokémon, Halo, Spider-Man, Final Fantasy, The Stanley Parable, Superliminal, The Death Of Edith Finch, Journey, and Papers Please.

What is The Crowned Heathens Podcast?

No stupid questions here. Join Marissa, Matthew, and Sacco each week for video game discussions. From our favourite all-time video games to games we couldn't finish, we'll be discussing a variety of video games, including Playstation, Xbox, mobile, and PC games. Weekly discussions also include games we're currently playing from all genres – with several tangents for your enjoyment. After all, when there are no stupid questions, every topic is on the table.

Genres you can expect we'll talk about include, but are certainly not limited to: role-playing games (RPGs & JRPGs), run-and-guns, first-person and third-person shooters, platformers, top-down games, open-world games, puzzles, strategy games, survival games, fighting games, racing games, stealth games, rhythm games, text adventures, and choice-based games.
