"Ludology" vs. "Narratology"

Gaming is on its way to become an academic discipline. It's not such a far fetch thing when you consider that there's a debate going on between the idea of ludology vs narratology. The former is about game play while the latter is all about the story or nattative in a game. Interesting read. Personally, I think both game play and story are just as important. Of course, you can have a great game with just either one of the two elements alone. So ultimately, it's not a case of one winning over the other but which is more important to different certain type of games.
