Vig-E-O games
#47
RE: Vig-E-O games
Pippy,

It is better to quote out a piece that supports what you are trying to say rather than just punt up a link and expect everyone to sift through the whole thing only to have you say that wasn't the part you meant. You should also look for peer-reviewed studies because right off your source is insulting and obviously just as biased as you seem to be.

My essay is on the positive effects of video games specifically not TV in general (It is attached). There is nothing special about surgeons, that was just an article I found that supported my point. There are many incidental skills that are improved throught the act of playing video games. For example my typing skills were improved by playing World of Warcraft and I can create objects with my mind because of the practice from second life. Ok, maybe I can't create objects with my mind but learning a coding language while crafting imaginary objects for use inside that game provided me with concepts about writing code that I applied to writing code for the Optical Coordinate Measurement Machine at my job. Video games have contributed greatly to the person I am today.
