And it's pretty significant, that there's no word in German für "graphic novel" as well as for "mature games" …

When ist come to "Heavy Rain, Read Dead Redemption and Alan Wake" … sorry, these games still have the visual and narrative qualities of adolescents art. Imho, the problem of many Gamers as well as of the gaming industrie is, that they never really experience real works of art in other media … even Shadow of the Colossus still has more of a Manga than of a Novel.

And also I humbly suggest a text from my own Blog on the topic: "Die Pest".
