Learning from a Game?

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Yo Fd..... you're really gettin' into the BBC aren't you?

Interesting article. I have found that the Beeb and some written British publications offer more interesting editorial outlook on news that we take for granted or only are able to get regurgitated to us in the same formulaic way here in the US.

Ya I heard about that. Then theres some more stuff I heard, playing FPS games improves reflexes. I even heard somewhere that gaming gives gamers a rush thats almost identical to a athlete. Anyway yeah, well, doing anything for extended periods of time always has an after-effect, be it good or bad, figures games also have some.

also, if you ever go into surgery and have a chance to speak with the surgeon, ask the doc what video games he/she plays. The surgeons that play games that involve the most multi-tasking elements and eye-hand coordination are better in surgery, more efficient, detail oriented, and much quicker.

I actually like your spam, Wolfy, so cheer up! In fact I think you should have your own forum, become a moderator, and have your website linked to from the TLR frontpage (when you get round to finishing it)
