But now we can build real worlds we can populate them with real people and its like watching interactive cinema, therefore for you are going to get an emotional attachment to the characters you see for example Lara Croft,  you want to know what makes her tick what does she do in her off time. And people want to know about the characters that they may see, because you do not have to  suspend disbelief any more these are real people even though they are virtual people. And therefore for this emotional attachment  and the worlds we build is definitely creating a new art form.\"\u003cbr/\u003e8. Close gamer with control pad, camera pans up  to game\u003cbr/\u003e9. SOUNDBITE (English) Jonny Minkely, Gaming journalist, UK\u003cbr/\u003e\"In terms on whether games are an art form in there own right, I think video game creation is a very very creative medium and all encompassing of all types of different ideas and I think that it is unfair  on certain designers to just dismiss them as techie people that labour away on computers all the time. All these people create amazing vivid worlds and creations with huge amounts of artistic flare that stands along side any art form I think or any other creative medium such if music is art, if film is art , if TV is art then surely video games are art as well .\u003cbr/\u003e10.Set up   Sheldon Hutchinson classical  UK Artist \u003cbr/\u003e11.SOUNDBITE ( English) Sheldon Hutchinson\u003cbr/\u003e\" I am a painter of portraits among other things and I was trained in a very traditional style which I am trying to explore and paint drawing on a classical  tradition.\u003cbr/\u003e12.Sheldon Hutchinson's paintings pieces\u003cbr/\u003e13.

I think the actual playing of the game I would say was more  a sport  like a sporting endeavour I do not think that is an art.

And for me I think your going to end up seeing complete alternate worlds, where you are going to have your character your avatar (representation of yourself as a games character) where you take a digital image of your self and you watch your self playing in virtual  world. As life becomes more and more dull people escape into alternate worlds  with their alter egos meet there friends  online.\"\u003cbr/\u003e18.

in October in London.\u003cbr/\u003eThe gaming industry has become the fastest growing entertainment medium in the UK.\u003cbr/\u003eAnd now some in the industry are calling for video games to be
