| About myself: | I was born in Soviet Union. At the age of eleven I immigrated to Israel. I studied classical and jazz piano in Berlin.
I currently live in Shanghai, working as a jazz musician. I also teach in the electronic music department of the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. I have a son named Michael who was born in November 2008.
Beside music and video games, I'm interested in religions, philosophy, history, literature, languages, and mythology.
My favorite genres are RPG and adventure. I also like hybrids and pure action games, although I'm more picky about those.
I answer "yes" to the question "Are games art?". I don't think older games are necessarily better than newer ones. That said, there is still a conflict between popular demands, technical execution, and creative content of the games. There are still many aspects of gaming waiting to be discovered and exploited.
Games are a young art. They still have a long way to go. The difference between games and other forms of art is only in their respective ages. History has helped us to separate the gems from the trash in most kinds of art. In case of video games, the trash is still here with us. But that doesn't mean that there are no gems.
I love all the games I keep in my collection (see my Have List) almost equally, so it would be hard to make a real "all-time favorites" list. If you want to know what my favorite games are, just check out my Have List.
