Between March and September of 2012, the Smithsonian will open an exhibit dedicated to games AS art--not just art in games. They're taking votes right now. You can pick up to 80 games across five generations, from a pool of 240. All is needed is an email address to register. To vote, go here.

I haven't picked all my 80 yet. A lot of great candidates, I will say. It's a shame they had to put the only Megaman game under the same category as SMB3.

One thing I found interesting is that this exhibit will be part of the American Art Meseum, which is somewhat amusing since about half of the candidates are from outside the U.S.:D Not complainin', just sayin'.
Aw, you can't nominate games? I didn't find one of the 10 most artistic games I could think of among their choices. :(

I want to help design a "sandpark" MMO. Optional interactive story with quests and deeply characterized NPCs, plus sandbox elements like player-craftable housing and lots of other crafting. If you are starting a design of this type, please PM me. I also love pet-breeding games.
