        Before he died he also wrote an article staking his position that video games are not a legitimate art form. That doesn’t necessarily mean he hated games or would never play one, but it does make it somewhat odd to see a list like this on a site bearing his name.

          It’s a shame because I generally agreed with most of Ebert’s opinions and still miss him as a taste guide for getting an idea of what movies are worth my time. But video games can definitely be art.

        Jedi Survivor is actually a great game. Too bad it is marred by some of the worst performance I ever seen on PC.

          Not surprised. Several years on and I still can’t get Fallen Order working properly.

      I was totally convinced he rose from the dead just to play Starfield. Now you’re telling me that’s not what happened?
