I agree completely with JP and JW!! video games are video games, not even close to what music,film, photography or any art is!. If any of these idiots who've commented think that video games are more than just that, then you should get of you're stupid couches and actually do something with your lives other than stare at some stupid sreen and hold a cheap plastic control!! What Jimmy Page and Jack White are saying is that simply exposing and bringing "new" music to people through video games is just incredibly pathetic!! I mean i get the idea that video games are a way to pass the time come on,,but music like any other art form is supposed to be more than stupid pixels on a screen! Good music comes and is made not to be some level on a stupid game (that by the way features "artists" who just need money to pay there bills) its made to be appreciated for what it is! Obviosly playing a game doesnt mean you're going to do whatever you do in the game in real life. But this is not about that at all!! Its about how srewed up people are now and how pathetic they are that in order to "enjoy" music they need to sit in front of a screen to get of on it. For people's sake!! These stupid video games are just dumbing people down(look at the comments!) and destroying what music is about. Music is an experience that should take you somewhere (or at least actual good music). And about someone here who says that some stupid quarterback moron doesnt get pissed with video games..well its because sports are sports and music is music! i mean of course they wont care about the games its more money for them! and there just meat heads who bash one on to another! the point is that music is'nt about kids with plastic crap in there hands strumming mindlessly away in front of some stupid screen wasting hours away, not a care in the world and having no social skills whatsoever! Jack White and Jimmy Page know what music is really about ...its more than a game. ..anyway i think i've wasted enough time hear trying to convince people without brains or will..hope these and other idiots actually start living there lives and do something for there's and there country's sake. I still have hope that there actual people who think and know about art and appreciate what its about.
