    Default Action gamers make faster and better decisions

    Video games improve decision making

    A new study has concluded that video games help us make correct decisions faster

    Okay what about the all around gamer? But this is interesting cause I am sure I've read it somewhere before, or they did a similar study before, as I was discussing this with a buddy while driving the one day.

    All the Haters are always saying how games are turning us into mindless, violence obcessed, murderers looking for victims. Personally I blame the Looney Tunes, have you seen how violent those shows are?!

    I might not have killed anyone before, but I sure could think of a few individuals whom I'm sure wouldn't be missed...
