VideosGames by Joey Paur

GameSpot released a fascinating video essay that points out three ways that playing video games is good for us. What makes this legit is the fact that it's all backed up by scientific research. When I was growing up playing video games, I heard from a lot of people that it was a waste of time, and that it would rot my brain. On the contrary, it only made me more of an awesome and smarter individual, just like the rest of you who enjoy gaming.  

The three things that are discussed in detail in the video include: "Better Sensorimotor Skills," "Better at English," and "Mental Flexibility." Now no one can tell you that you're not bettering yourself because you play a lot of video games. Now I'm sure a lot of kids are going to show this to their parents as an excuse to play more video games. Sorry, parents. Science doesn't lie. 

Cam scours the latest scientific research for positive news stories about playing video games, and comes back with three fascinating results for us. Watch more Reality Check!
