There is one game that I can think of that I would call art and that "In the company of myself" a small flash game.

It looks nice, has a story and makes you think (not about the game but about the situation the guy is in and his sadness etc...) (if you allow it to).

I can't think of many others I would call art though.

HL2 definitely isn't art in the way that Terminator 2 isn't art.

My understanding of art is that it is designed to stimulate your senses and/or emotions, which covers pretty much anything :?
