    (Sorry but i looked everywhere and couldn't find it written, so just trust me that this is what I heard)
    On the way home from football my mom had news station 1080 KRLD on. One of its many stories caught my attention, as well as my mom's. (this story was around 4:45 Central (-6 i think))

    It claims that studies show that people (not just kids) who play video games have better reflexes, manual dexterity, and think quicker. Now I know that this is common knowledge to us, but this is an improvement. People have always doubted us but know theres proof!

    A few bonus things about it:
    Surgeons that are gamers make less mistakes (youd think the opposite from being used to restarting, but were just better overall)

    (The funniest part) World of Warcraft players have better minds when it comes to complex thinking (sarcasm hmm really? /sarcasm)
