Just because something was not produced by an individual, does not keep it from being a work of art. Some of the best classical music requires many musicians to bring it to life. The same goes to software. Take, for example, our beloved operating system. Where would linux be if nobody else worked on it besides Linus? Also, the idea that games were better back in the "old days" is a load of bull. I just brought back my Atari, and had a good long gaming session with such "beauties" as ET, Bezerk, the original Atari port of PacMan. I think its safe to say that games have come along way, due to the contribution of many hardworking specialists. --Cretal
