Fast forward to 2011, I'm now 21 and I've never stolen a car, never punched someone walking on the pavement, never fired a weapon, never hired a prostitute, never gotten involved with drugs, or gangs, or crime etc. I've never had the urge to do that either, because I'm able to differentiate between reality and video games.” mrbobo978mrbobo978 10 months ago 32 –likes (Youtube – mrbobo978) “Today, a growing area of brain research suggests modern fast-paced action video games — in particular first-person shooter games — may sharpen your vision, improve your attention and working memory, and develop your fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
