Well this is one of those weird research studies, but it shows that there is an apparent colleration between surgeons who play videogames and the amount of error they make or are less likely to make.

:wtf:

Let's all make a promise that we won't be surgeons ok!?

I read that yesterday. Funny but true. I guess judging from what I see on the screen, Super Monkey Ball demands some eye hand coordination.

So does that mean because I'm good at Chopper Challenge, I would be an awesome helicopter pilot?

[Happydude]

well...duh? you only need 1 button to fly a real helicopter also...



anyway, i knew games could get you somewhere in life :p

I'll merge them. The topic will now reside in The Dungeon seeing as BAB is the winner.

Super Monkey Ball one or two?

If it's one, then good.. but if it's two, god help the patients. :sneaky:

[DimHalo]

there's hope for the world after all. the video game generation will become the leaders of society soon and it is becoming clear that they've got the skills needed to do it!

That news was encouraging and makes me feel good about myself.

"What do you see" news was encouraging and makes me feel good about myself ?
Makes sense to me.

[Dark Samurai]

Super Monkeyball?

Hmm... not the game I would've picked.

Finally all those lonely nights playing games by myself have paid off..
