The excellent grumpygamer.com has posted an appropriately cantankerous polemic on that long-held myth that the videogame industry is now bigger than the movie industry. We can argue all we like about it, but Grumpy has come up with the raw stats to support his assertion that videogames do, in fact, fall way short.
It's always been an arbitary assertion in any case. What does 'bigger' actually mean in this context? Bigger in terms of profit, or cultural impact, or audience sizes? And why did it ever matter to people?
