Three and a Half Reasons to Play Computer Games

Hand-eye coordination
NASA astronauts use off-the-shelf computer games to improve their hand-eye coordination.

Quicker reactions
US scientists found that the attention span and information processing time of “gamers” was better than that of non-computer-playing folk.

Better decision making
Surgeons who play computer games for more than three hours a week make 37 per cent fewer errors than their nonplaying counterparts.

These facts and a few others about the health benefits of computer games, plus a great many words that tell us almost nothing, can be found in this piece in the Times of London. Geezer has another reason: Winter is coming, and can be played inside, preferably at fireside.
