Would you rather have any videogame in existence in the present (and any that are created as time passes) and NO MUSIC albums, or any cd's/albums ever created (and the new ones as they are created) and NO VIDEOGAMES?
I'd go for videogames without a doubt.

Thats a tough one.. on one hand Id want music, and on the other games. Its hard. But... I think id go for tunes.
Although, on Cds there is music.. some of its good too!.. Well I can't answer properly, but lets go with music.

I like playing video games as well but I can't say that video games are a part of my life.

if i was traveling to jupiter fuck video games, dreamcast and all that shit is only fun for awhile.. even CS. music keeps your mind fresh and alert in a lot of different ways, and if i was going on a long space voyage.. all instrumental, fuck vocals. ever read 2001, music vocals just depresses you in long space flights because you wish the voices were real people there with you. anyway most electronic is instruments and blipz and bleepz so im fine with listening to that all the way to jupiter or whatever.
heh

C'mon: gradius 3? Contra 3? Doom2? Super punch out? Command and Conquer?
Well so far I'm in the minority I guess. They're more interactive. I don't know, if I couldn't create music too, it would be a tough decision... I actually can't make up my mind now.... Zelda, Metroid, Mario, Lemmings, ahhh, I'm staying with videogames. Definately!

Music is very, very important. Games are just for entertainment. That question was stupid.
Here's a better one: music or SEX? Which one could YOU live without?

Sex with yourself would also be disallowed. No sexual pleasure AT ALL. I could definitely not live without that.

That'd be impossible. If you never relieved yourself, you'd eventually go insane and nearly squirt on anything you touched.

Wet dreams every night no thank you. Not being allowed to wack off? BAH! i say. BAH! between sex or music is easy for me, i'd go with music. i'd hate it but i'd rather have music.
i'd choose music over pretty much anything though.

Videogames= light plus sound plus interaction/competition with the computer. Music= only sound. I think that many of you aren't good at videogames, maybe that's why you don't like them as much. Or you're playing the wrong games. Don't you get that nervous feeling when you've just gotten past some point that's almost impossible to beat and that feeling of knowing that one false move with one life left can end your game and you'll have to start at the beginning again. The main thing music has over videogames IMHO is that people have made it easy to create music, making it more personal and formed more exactly how one desires. If they had plenty of software for fairly easy to make videogames, that would be even better.

Bzzzttt..Wrong..Sound is more Immersive because when done right it can fill a room like the very air you breathe.. plus theres only one sense involved so the illusion can be more or less complete..our auditory sense is the most well developed because it's the first sense we are start using, yep right in the mommy's tum tum...with games you are still bound (and to me distracted) by a rectangular screen..both sight and sound have to confer and construe for informations..hence there's always gaps in the resulting atmosphere..
until the age of completely surround VR specs being included with every console and PC sold...sounds still the king!!!

Good arguments. But have you played super punch out for SNES or punch out on nes. The sound and visuals blend together beautifully. I love hitting the narciss prince and hearing him go "waaa oh" every time. It's natural for the brain to inter-relate sound and visuals. Drop a can of pennies, and what you hear will be a similar alteration of what you see. It is cool to use only one sense in artistic creation or observation though. Or sonic the hedgehog, where every time you get an extra life it goes "bum ba da dum da BA da... da BUM da BUM da BUM!" ha ha ha, hilarious! It's not just the sound, but the acquirement of an item that will aid you in your battle against the computer a.i. Or in battletoads on gameboy, the sound of that giant rolling rock isn't a just a sound, but the sound OF a rock chasing you for 3 minutes while your heart is pacing trying to get your mind (augmented by your fingers on the controller- (the controller shouldn't even be noticed by the player in the best case design)) to control the visuals. Games today are becoming movies, with less control. Randomness is also great in games. Doom 2 was so great (better than goldeneye ex.) because the monsters interacted in a way that the same level would not be the same twice, simply due to many objects interacting in chaos. In goldeneye, the level was pretty much the same every time. Doom 2 was also a MODIFIED 2d (not 3d)! That's crazy when you think about it geometrically, but it actually worked logically.

Both punchouts for snes and nes. Also games like joust for atari are so simple that the sound and visuals easily go with one another if programmed right. Like the pteradactle and the sound of warping back in after you've been defeated.
