Roger Ebert Admits His Mistake

“I was a fool for mentioning video games in the first place,” writes the famed movie critic. “I would never express an opinion on a movie I hadn’t seen.”

This past April, Ebert wrote a post titled “Video games can never be art” that carried dogmatic statements like this: “Let me just say that no video gamer now living will survive long enough to experience the medium as an art form.”
