: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?

Re: A reason to go to medical school
 

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:

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!

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