The National Endowment for the Arts says so, and is even putting its funding where its mouth is. But the gaming community says it's probably too soon to pop the champagne corks.
The National Endowment for the Arts recently made an announcement that was Midi music to our ears: It was now considering "interactive games" among the art forms to which it would offer funding. Games blogs across the web threw confetti: "It means that if a developer wants to create games for people, doesn’t want to charge money for them, but still wants to be able to eat, there is an option," said Icrontic. The savior had arrived, lending long-sought government legitimacy (and dollars) to a much-maligned form.
The Nea announcement is a major step, to be sure. But as a few members of the gaming community tell Fast Company, it's too soon to bust out the party hats.

London -- Indie production house Studio Lambert and Channel 4 have been accused of faking scenes in "The Jacksons Are Coming" a 2008 docudrama about members of the Jackson family considering moving to English coastal county of Devon.
Matt Fiddes, a local karate instructor and former bodyguard of Michael Jackson, is suing Channel 4 and the producers, alleging that his portrayal in the documentary was unfair and that elements of the show were made up.

"We are confident that they can and will demonstrate the honesty and truthfulness of this documentary at trial," the three parties said.
