WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! :thumb:
w00t! been saying it for years, why do they need researchers? they should have asked us!
just wait for the study that says long-time gamers have better visual ability (acuity) than non-gamers.
wait, i read somthing about that the other day!.. Long time gamers really do have better visual awaeness, better reactions too in a lot of cases.
edit just thought of somthing else!
there was a study related to gamers and the mobile phone generation. A button was placed on a wall. Gamers and mobile users were asked to press the button, as were non-gamers and casual phone users.
The non-gamers/casuals used a finger to press the button, whereas gamers/phone used their thumb to press the button.
Not much point to the study, but kinda interesting i suppose…
