Well, duh. In order to play a video game, you must take in a ****load of information and process it both correctly and quickly to win. It still amazes me that most people seem to think that just because video games are played on a TV that they're purely passive activities...like watching TV. Haven't these people noticed that a video game requires human input to work to its fullest potential?

Discuss.
 
One word.. And if you don't get my point, read the article from the beginning once again !

It says Courtesy of Sony, so I'm guessing some Playstation platform.

After playing for 10 days, those who learned "Medal of Honor" scored better on the performance tests than those who didn't.
