I agree, in the game you are actually playing the role. You are the terrorist, the torturer etc. In films you just watch the action on screen but don't take part.
The article states clearly that it is the "interactivity" that makes games different to movies. And whether you agree with it or not, games really ARE more interactive and that is why media will hit on it in a different way to movies.
You guys need to realise that there IS a difference, the question is whether that difference should mean different standards for games.
