Hm...

That's fascinating considering that they are using video games to help children with ADD and ADHD concentrate on their homework and other tasks at Mayo Clinic.

They started the study like 2 or 3 years ago. They found games help children (and people in general) to focus.

And I have a hard time believing this. I play video games, and feel I have a very creative brain. I think this is a load of crap, except for the anger portion. I would partially agree with that.

But I mean, look at the tournament taking place in the Twin Cities (visite PGC to learn more). That sort of event makes people who play video games get social. They can be a very social pass-time. I'm going to take this article with a agrain of salt.
