Forums · Did videogames help you become a better, PERSON
No. I played too much, still sort of do, ignoring other things in life. What other things? well all the rest that actually matters.
But through some games you do learn things, military things for one..strategies and stuff like that. Or how to kill zombies (aim for the brain)..its very useful.

[font=verdana]Well i only play for about 1 hour on the weekends, it's a good discipline that really works, and you'll find you'll be doing much better at school and in real life if you restrict your game playing time to the weekends and holidays. Games on a whole aren't good for you, but a little bit won't do any harm at all.
For me games have actually increased my reaction time, i'm a very good sprinter as i can get very fast off the mark, which is all thanks to fast reaction times, which i believe contributed from my playing games when i was a kid.

Games have made me a more articulate person, believe it or not, especially the MGS series games since the story line has made me look for some words I could not understand in the dictionary. Games have also helped me blow off some steam instead of going ballistic on an innocent bystander.
