IGF game field weak

Has anyone else checked out the IGF game list? I think it's a very weak list, which is good for GG, I guess, since Chain Reaction winning would help bring GG some more exposure.

Almost everything is just a rehash of crap, though there are a couple that are kind of interesting, especially the one where you have to mow the lawn in order to support your mother's drinking/slash drug habit.

Anyways, I think it's too bad there's not more people out there trying to push the definition of what a video game can be, though I think organizations like GG were needed in order for there to be the opportunity to push the limits.

Anyways, just wanted to point out that the games I see on GG more than compare with the average game that was submitted to the IGF and everyone should make it a goal to submit games to be judged at the competition next year.
