Feature: Where’s the “Citizen Kane of video games”?
It seems like a concept that’s thrown around a lot these days is the parallel between video games and cinema, and the taunting question of when’s our Citizen Kane going to come around? But I wonder if all the people pondering this aloud truly understand what they’re looking for. I’m going to go out on a limb here and assume that the vast majority of gamers haven’t actually seen Orson Welles’ 1941 classic. I have. And while I certainly believe it to be a great film and can recognize its significance in the history of motion pictures, it’d be a stretch to call it the greatest movie of all time.
