2 years late... But most pro gamers are kept in somewhat good physical shape as well... Healthy body, healthy mind. It's considered true for most "Thinking" sports such as chess. I'd assume E-sport teams try to keep their players decently in shape as well.

It doesn't worsen you physically if you exercise as much as a normal person unless you count every activity that's not exercising as "physically bad for you", in which case nearly every hobby is physically bad for you.
Playing is precisely what you should be doing as a kid. That's never a waste of time. If nothing else, I'm sure that you learned you can raise your Logic by playing Chess.
I think that playing the Sims made me a good organiser and when events or small partys are held it's usually me that provides things that you need in order to be able use them (like batterys for the additional controller and such). Also it helped to develope my thinking for the things that I want and if I should get them because I want them and theyre useful and are going to be used or if I just want them without needing it since I already treatet myself already a few times to something yummy and so on.

really? because there were already medias out there like 5 - 10 years ago defending games, they were just out-influenced by the more famous news medias attacking games. EDIT: Especially during the GTA journalist controversies.
I would have to argue against it being a social media. Social media is where unrealistic expectation gets put of people and video games are really just salty 12 year olds screaming.
Cartoons My Man I’d disagree. In social media you have your whole identity out there, and it’s meant to socialize and interact with people, mostly by judging and commenting and posting about yourself or whatever. The purpose of social media is literally just to socialize, nothing more than that. And even that socializing aspect is mostly comprised of looking at pictures of other people and pretending to care about what they say. In gaming, while it doesn’t require any social interaction, is all about enjoying yourself and having fun. That can mean with or without many people, and has no ties whatsoever to your real identity, because that’s not what matters, unlike social media. Not to mention that gaming is a much more interactive activity than using social media, much like how it’s more interactive than watching tv/ movies. Imo, you can socialize better with another person playing games with them and learn more about each other than you would just on social media *TL;DR*: social media is meant for socializing at a superficial level using your true identity. Gaming doesn’t require any social interaction or true identity. Its purpose is enjoyment and fun, but can still be more interactive at a social level than social media.
Video games & technology in general has: -Increased my typing speed -Advanced my multi tasking skills -GREATLY improved my vocabulary, grammar, and overall knowledge -Improved my reaction time -Greatly improved my Hand-Eye coordination -Decreased my chances to get overwhelmed during a lot of pressure And this is all in a span of 8 years. It’s really worthwhile to play video games, but to also keep yourself healthy.
Should Also add -you have for habitude of being over stimulate and don’t enjoy enough real life -Chance of developping Trouble of deficits of the attention because of your over stimulate Life style -and blue light help you with sleep (not at all) I enjoy gaming but never more than 4 hour per day because it make your real life more Boring because you feel not enough stimulate
Actually, i really have to thank multiplayer games for pushing me to type better I don't use periods, because it seems bizarre to have more than one sentence in one line (Which is what i'm avoiding right now) Which may actually be tied to how i usually type in multiplayer games, there's not really a need for a period because once you've finished a sentence you typically hit enter And doing that here (i press shift+enter for anything that isn't a game) Makes me type in a more vertical fashion, which i like and find easier to read because the end of a sentence is much more distinct It's also inspired by game consoles, type one command in one line, hit enter (Usually, sometimes i have to put multiple in one line with the help of ; or use cfg. files with an exec command) Also I spend way too much time in game consoles... (Also yeah, i don't always make proper sentences and i don't always capitalize, but that's just human error)
Storage Guardians Just vocabulary. I’m not the type to flame teammates unless they’re trolling. Reading comments on TH-cam has greatly increased my vocabulary. Sounds funny, but it’s true!
This video missed one thing. Video games helped me to handle anger like a pro. I cant just scream and throw away everything everytime i lost right :'D. Like if you got the skill to handle angers like a pro with the help of some video games too. Edit. No one would like this so im gonna like my own comment . Edit:well I guess I was wrong one year ago. So many people liked this!
Tru. Before video games, I was generic triggered 12 year old boi. Now, I've gone through countless arguments with people who will not slow the hecc down and listen. I've also learned that calling them names because they don't want to listen to your points makes it worse.
@@amagicmuffin1191 name-calling is childish and only escalates a problem. No one's going to even consider listening to you if you're demoralizing them with silly names or yelling at them like an immature baby. Calm, cool and Collective is the way to be in a conversation. 👍
I can say without a doubt that if i hadn't been using my technique to decrease my anger level when I got pissed off at a game, I'd probably have a dozen or more broken consoles. *has flashback of getting mad at Soul Calibur 3, stomping on the ps2 and throwing the controller against the wall, destroying the game, the console and the controller all at the same time*
I used to be a player with a lot of anger too, but after seeing it was pointless to rage at the screen i can now play completely relaxed, and you see other people raging with the mic or hitting the keyboard, i just laugh at that haha
I've recently started randomly playing console video games again at 36 years old, after not playing them for probably over 20 years. I play iOS games randomly on my phone and iPad, but never for more than a couple minutes a day, if that. Heading back into video games again recently, it feels like I'm exercising the puzzle-solving/strategy/memory regions of my brain again. So the timing of this video is bizarrely accurate for me, whoaaaaa.
I used use open world games to retain information for exams when I was at school. Lets say I was studying for a History test, I would record myself reading out stories and facts about the time period and jump into Oblivion or Fallout. When I was exploring the worlds I began to associate certain areas and events with the History notes I was listening to, making them much easier to recall. It's a similar premise as the mind palace, give it a try!
This is a great way to show that video games are not all bad, I used to play gta v in first person to practice my driving cause accidents happen in the game there’s actual traffic in the game and it’s just great I passed my drivings test confident cause I practice the study guide on the game
This is Pavlov’s dog in action. Condition your brain to think or remember something when something happens and when that something happens, you’ll think of/remember that thing!
While studying in Denmark, I participated in a study with VR and measuring brain activity. One of the observed result of this research was that if a mind-controlled game forces you to focus in some way, it changes your brain, and by testing a lot, they found that they could cure PTSD (to completely disappear), will be used for Danish veterans pretty soon I think.
@@oddlylostfox9719 I didn't live in Denmark at that time when I posted it, I was here for just one semester but now I'm back for another semester (totally randomly :D )
RE zen Pathan dude that's nearly half a day... (I know this is a joke but I don't care) Edit: I know 15 hours is way more than half. Honestly I didn't know what was going on my head when I typed the comment
*The topic should be more specific* For example, the benefits of MOBA games, Rhythm games, Shooter games, Puzzle Games and etc. Video games as a whole is just too broad. There may be a difference in brain activity for different kinds of video games.
I'm sorry but videogames have taught thousands upon millions of people problem solving skills, trained reaction times and given us far more first hand knowledge on many things we might encounter in life, building our foresight and understanding of how our actions ripple and affect many things around us. However, too much of anything is obviously bad for you. Nonetheless, you can't deny how powerful a videogame can be in teaching and training a mind to be faster and more creative in solving problems.
MariMitty I learned english by playing video games since it wasn't my first language. Now, I speak 3 languages and soon 4. It helps me connect with others in real life and in video games since I am able to communicate in different languages which is pretty cool.
@@OCDMINECRAFTER1 Yup, that is one of the benefit by playing games for us non english speaker but wasn't included in video because they are native english speaker. I learned english in game better than at school, sure i might not be fluent and perfect at it, but at least i can communicate and understand english well.
oooooohhhhhhhhhh also there is research being done that could show that if you have a higher frame rate monitor like 144hz and 60 that you can train your eye site to see higher than normal eyesight and up to 1000fps!!!!
Agioborg fallout is good cause it teaches you to be observant around your surroundings cause you're fighting Enemy's while looking around for other Enemy's at the exact same time and also it is good for your brain cause you have to make difficult decisions
Got to be carefull with confirmation bias tough... Great vid! I only missed you trying to answer how would those abilities help us outside the virtual world! At 25 I finally built my pc and after roughly 7 years got back to gaming. I know how the addiction can be not only unproductive but destructive! I´m trying my best to keep it healthy!!! Afterall I wanna game for many years =D
[GD] T1M3L3S5 they are hardly games, they are terrible ports on which you play with your touchscreen. And the vast majority of mobile games are money sucking leaches that are not actual games with story, or proper devs who support the game.
The one thing that they hadn't mentioned in the video that I was most curious about is how gaming effects the part of the brain that deals with communication with other human beings, such as how well gamers can read body language, read facial expressions, hold a conversation and read others emotions. I know there is more to connecting with people then what I listed, but I still would have liked to see their findings on that area of the brain and how gamers and non gamers compare to each other socially.
The results of continuing research on how gaming affects the brain in regard to social communication are still preliminary. However, some research has indicated that playing video games, even those that encourage social interaction, may help develop some social skills. According to one study, playing video games, especially ones that encourage social interaction, can help players become more adept at reading and interpreting nonverbal clues like body language and facial expressions. According to a different study, playing video games can help players become more adept at identifying and comprehending the emotions of others. Furthermore, some studies contend that playing video games can enhance a player's capacity for conversation and communication in general. It's crucial to remember, too, that excessive gaming can have a detrimental impact on social life by isolating users and reducing in-person connections. Players must strike a balance between gaming and other pursuits, such as spending time with friends and family. Overall, additional study is required to completely comprehend how gaming affects social communication abilities and how they differ between players and non-players.
31 years old soon 32, I have been playing since I was around 8 or something, My eye's is great (no glasses), my wrist / hands /shoulders / neck are great (Training 3 - 4 days per week). I can still win a lot of matches in Battle Royale / RTS games. I feel fresh :)
oneLegend not exactly, maybe the initial cost to start is expensive, but its an investment, so getting a $60 game and playing them for a long time is much more worth it than spending $20+ at the movies for a few hours every weekend, and PlayStation and Xbox online passes are a LOT cheaper than a Netflix subscription nowadays.
If u played mmorpg, ur wallet is in great danger Other game? Not really unless u buy item or gane just for show off. Even in show off case, u actually got some satisfaction in return
10:30 I've had summer where I gamed 16 hours a day for several weeks but it's hard to sustain it indefinitely. I remember taking a survey and one of the questions asked how many hours I gamed per month. At the time, it was about 8 hours per day which is 1680/month but the survey wouldn't accept anything over 500 lol which is only a little over 2 hours a day
Man I'm not saying gaming will kill your brain or anything but try maxing out the hours you play for 4 hours day atleast I feel like you fell in the addictive side
Anything can be bad for you if you use it incorrectly. It can also be good if you use it correctly. The internet is a big gateway to limitless knowledge, but we all know we use it to surf TH-cam and game more than actually trying to get a grip on your own real life. Learning 4 languages through the phone is something only a fraction of a percent of phone users actually do. Please don't use this as an excuse to keep slacking off on your phone
@@TranscientFelix the funny thing is, I accidentally learned these 4 languages. Also, when you say using things incorrectly, do condoms count as one of those things?
I was driving 55mph and an oncoming vehicle turns left into my lane, without having enough distance between us. They slammed the brakes and were left open for a T-Bone Collision, right in the middle of my lane. I had no time to slam the brakes, partly because I was driving a 1996 Plymoth Caravan; and the brakes weren't in the best shape. I had to react quickly, I could hear my family screaming and I could also see two people in the other car, frantically waving in front of them, where there was just enough distance for me to squeeze into. Ignoring all the panic and city laws, I gently steered into the small space between the enemy vehicle and two trashcans by their driveway. Thanks to my quick reactions, there was no damage to either car or passengers. We were all on the way to trade in the Minivan to get a new family car...I feel like gaming saved my life.
@@boyishmallard9404 Teared up reading this. Had forgotten I shared this deep memory. Surprised to see up votes and a comment. Thank you all for listening
They looked at action games, which is interesting. But I really hope to see other genres studied more heavily, as they likely will be, and would be very curious about the effects. TBS games being one such case. Obviously you aren't going to improve your reaction times much, but what kind of problem solving would it help with most? RTS games I would personally anticipate have effects halfway inbetween TBS and action games, but I wonder if this hypothesis would pan out. Then you have a lot of games that don't fall clearly into one category or another, like Armello, Undertale, and Scribblenauts. Simulators would be another interesting thing, especially flight sims like FSX and DCS. Then there is the fact that a different TBS may have an entirely different effect. For example, Galactic Civilizations has more creative components than Civilization (regarding playing, not modding). But Civilization might have some advantages of GC. Can't think of any offhand, tbh.
The pro-gamer performed that test incorrectly. The head is to remain still while looking straight at the blue square straight ahead. The purpose is to test reaction time with your peripheral vision with the intent to help an athlete over time react quicker i.e. seeing and responding to a moving object quicker.
To all: IMO. Every gamer is hunting for a break through to win. Because there was no rule discussed to it, gamer followed whatever helped him win. In this case, his head movement comfort. Think the host can chose to make another video with some rules discussion with the gamer for you guys.
I gotta say, I'm an avid fan of First Person Shooters and playing online agasint other moving people. I can't say I know for sure, but I believe the tracking involved with that helped me shoot trap (shooting fast-flying clay disks with a shotgun) better.
@@chilloutlemur9979 gamers see clubbing as a waste of life same way clubbers see gaming as such. Both extremes are unhealthy but clubbing has no positives to it. Anything it offers can be had elsewhere
Lol I play games all the time but in between loading screens or queues I do some exercises like pushups, Sit ups, mountains climbers, burpees, lunges, popcorn popers, wall sits, squats, jump squats, and crap like that plus I do wrestling so im naturally really fit so im pretty sure as long as your moving and keeping a healthy diet and routine your good doesn't matter if you play games or not.
xXxMegalodoNxXx 「」 the button test actually is harder than you might think. Look at how near the wall they are. It obligates you to move your eyes on the wall a lot. It's really hard to get the buttons when they light up because there is a lot of chances for you to be looking away while it does
Depends on the game, certain games require extreme reflex and require you to be able to turn around and land a shot and the slightest notice, some games require u to spam left click with almost no skill
I taught to a friend to lose fear by playing need for speed most wanted long time ago. At the very first, she wasn't able to correclty take a curve with the car. She just leaved the keyboard with no idea of what to do. Then I explained her that she has to think before she think she has to think (preview the future let say), and to be cold blooded. Finally, she ended the game in first place in all the stages of the game in many, many times and this also impacted in her life, specially taking fast and correct desicions, which also raised her self-steam and her lidership. Also, she gained a lot of mental focus just like in the videogame, but in other tasks. So yes, videogames can help people, but it will depend a lot on the willingness of the person since many gamers are just a bunch of scremers. You know, PROS never say a word, never ever; even when they're accidentally killed by a teamate; a pro knows it was just an accident. Same for people who screams because a bottleneck on some door; a pro knows beforehand that a bottleneck will occurr, so it takes another way.
I have played different types of games like Counter strike, Dota 2, Age of Empire, Rise of Kingdoms etc.... And games taught me many different things like Counter strike - Having mental cool even in tense situations. Dota 2 - it taught me Teamwork... Age of empire - learn to use your resources efficiently. Rise of Kingdoms - how to conquer your enemy 😁😁😂

Honestly you can just play 6 hours a day with a 30 minute exercise two times a day to outweigh the negatives effects, and it wouldn't be a waste of time if you don't consider it a waste of time. P.S only people who say it's a waste of time, don't realize that our everyday lives is a waste of time since since all of us don't don't do anything meaningful. If we were to focus more on Science, health, medicine, and etc. That we would live longer and healthier and help our environment, and also trying to find planets to live on, and cause our planet isn't going to last forever.
Yolo Pie when you think about it, at the end we all day, might aswell die happy knowing we enjoyed our time and not skipped things that were a “waste of time”

The first test was done wrong, the pro gamer looks at every light before to click on it, while the average guy looks at the center and uses his peripherical vision to know where to click. It's normal the pro gamer won that test.
How was it done wrong? Sorry, I don‘t get it... 😅 I played a similar game a while ago against non-gamers. I was looking at the center while they focused on every single light. I won against all of them several times.
The perception part part he talking about is true, i can notice very slight sounds and movement around me (like if im in bed and someone walks into the room silently)
I’ve been playing college rocket league for the past 2 years, and I’ve noticed that about 9/10 of all of the rocket league players that I’ve played with/against have been STEM majors and I don’t think that’s a coincidence!
well the prob is the mei froze for too long you cant keep and enemy frozen that long even if you keep spraying her so he froze her for too long the went to ice her but the tracer was un frozen
Doing anything in life, no matter how much positive effects it has, it will have some negative effect as well. I would say keep moderate keep for life.
Thing is, if you want to be pro, and make a living out of it (and it is possible nowadays) you cant have moderation, so main issue is, how to tell a kid, you can't play the game 6, 7 hours (to be pro guys play over 12 hours per day, in Korea probably even more), if his dream is to play games for living.. being programmer and sitting whole day in front of computer is the same thing, being a professional football (soccer) player also takes great dedication and all it takes is one injury for it all to be in vain, so it will be a big challenge for parents to keep saying to their kids to follow their dreams but to stop playing games 6 hours a day... ahha
Sounds like people who play Call of Duty and think they would actually be the most badass soldiers ever to live in real life. 😆 they'd die first in combat.
@@royalebomber6432 Tell me how you're any better! All I'm saying is parents are very gullible because this video is saying very few off the negative effects and all of the few positive effects.
If I’m not working, or working on my cars or driving them. I definitely play games on my free time, and definitely have noticed my reaction time drastically improved, along with my decision making skills under pressure.
I've been gaming all my life. Started out at 6 years of age playing quake III arena against bots and now I'm 24 playing apex legends. One thing I noticed that I'm far better in compared to the normal population is my Reaction time. Turns out playing FPSes for your entire life makes both your simple and choice reaction time better
Being pro is a long journey, so to cut it short, Tutorial can give advice and tips for techniques. It might sound weird but knowing that the prize is worth millions of dollars then having a mentor is not a bad idea.
Black & White the game will probably die out soon, so by the time these kids get as good as the people who were naturally good, there wont be tournaments like that
I have adhd. Ive played games all my life and I have been told that I no longer seem like I even have adhd and people got surprised when I told them I had it. Im so glad that games are being looked at as a medicine for adhd and other medical issues.
That's like trying to compare apples to gorillas. If you don't understand how then it's not worth explaining what a ridiculous attempt at a comparison that was.
Ever since I started playing video games, it's actually helped me a little bit in PE when we have to catch things. My friend convinced me to start playing and I've loved it ever since

In gaming, while it doesn’t require any social interaction, is all about enjoying yourself and having fun. That can mean with or without many people, and has no ties whatsoever to your real identity, because that’s not what matters, unlike social media. Not to mention that gaming is a much more interactive activity than using social media, much like how it’s more interactive than watching tv/ movies. Imo, you can socialize better with another person playing games with them and learn more about each other than you would just on social media
*TL;DR*: social media is meant for socializing at a superficial level using your true identity.
Gaming doesn’t require any social interaction or true identity. Its purpose is enjoyment and fun, but can still be more interactive at a social level than social media.

Video games & technology in general has:
-Increased my typing speed
-Advanced my multi tasking skills
-GREATLY improved my vocabulary, grammar, and overall knowledge
-Improved my reaction time
-Greatly improved my Hand-Eye coordination
-Decreased my chances to get overwhelmed during a lot of pressure
And this is all in a span of 8 years. It’s really worthwhile to play video games, but to also keep yourself healthy.
Vocabulary as in learning different ways to flame teammates or............
I still get overwhelmed during a lot of pressure 😓
Should Also add
-you have for habitude of being over stimulate and don’t enjoy enough real life
-Chance of developping Trouble of deficits of the attention because of your over stimulate Life style
-and blue light help you with sleep (not at all)
I enjoy gaming but never more than 4 hour per day because it make your real life more Boring because you feel not enough stimulate
Actually, i really have to thank multiplayer games for pushing me to type better
I don't use periods, because it seems bizarre to have more than one sentence in one line (Which is what i'm avoiding right now)
Which may actually be tied to how i usually type in multiplayer games, there's not really a need for a period because once you've finished a sentence you typically hit enter
And doing that here (i press shift+enter for anything that isn't a game)
Makes me type in a more vertical fashion, which i like and find easier to read because the end of a sentence is much more distinct
It's also inspired by game consoles, type one command in one line, hit enter (Usually, sometimes i have to put multiple in one line with the help of ; or use cfg. files with an exec command)
Also
I spend way too much time in game consoles...
(Also yeah, i don't always make proper sentences and i don't always capitalize, but that's just human error)

Just vocabulary. I’m not the type to flame teammates unless they’re trolling. Reading comments on TH-cam has greatly increased my vocabulary. Sounds funny, but it’s true!

Games have changed a lot throughout the years.
I used use open world games to retain information for exams when I was at school. Lets say I was studying for a History test, I would record myself reading out stories and facts about the time period and jump into Oblivion or Fallout. When I was exploring the worlds I began to associate certain areas and events with the History notes I was listening to, making them much easier to recall. It's a similar premise as the mind palace, give it a try!
This sounds awesome
Sounds great, but I feel like every time I'd go back into that game, id be constantly reminded of the stuff
This is a great way to show that video games are not all bad, I used to play gta v in first person to practice my driving cause accidents happen in the game there’s actual traffic in the game and it’s just great I passed my drivings test confident cause I practice the study guide on the game
You can also play assassin's creed they are all about history

I'm sorry but videogames have taught thousands upon millions of people problem solving skills, trained reaction times and given us far more first hand knowledge on many things we might encounter in life, building our foresight and understanding of how our actions ripple and affect many things around us.
However, too much of anything is obviously bad for you. Nonetheless, you can't deny how powerful a videogame can be in teaching and training a mind to be faster and more creative in solving problems.

The one thing that they hadn't mentioned in the video that I was most curious about is how gaming effects the part of the brain that deals with communication with other human beings, such as how well gamers can read body language, read facial expressions, hold a conversation and read others emotions. I know there is more to connecting with people then what I listed, but I still would have liked to see their findings on that area of the brain and how gamers and non gamers compare to each other socially.
The results of continuing research on how gaming affects the brain in regard to social communication are still preliminary. However, some research has indicated that playing video games, even those that encourage social interaction, may help develop some social skills. According to one study, playing video games, especially ones that encourage social interaction, can help players become more adept at reading and interpreting nonverbal clues like body language and facial expressions.
According to a different study, playing video games can help players become more adept at identifying and comprehending the emotions of others. Furthermore, some studies contend that playing video games can enhance a player's capacity for conversation and communication in general. It's crucial to remember, too, that excessive gaming can have a detrimental impact on social life by isolating users and reducing in-person connections. Players must strike a balance between gaming and other pursuits, such as spending time with friends and family.
Overall, additional study is required to completely comprehend how gaming affects social communication abilities and how they differ between players and non-players.

I was driving 55mph and an oncoming vehicle turns left into my lane, without having enough distance between us. They slammed the brakes and were left open for a T-Bone Collision, right in the middle of my lane. I had no time to slam the brakes, partly because I was driving a 1996 Plymoth Caravan; and the brakes weren't in the best shape. I had to react quickly, I could hear my family screaming and I could also see two people in the other car, frantically waving in front of them, where there was just enough distance for me to squeeze into. Ignoring all the panic and city laws, I gently steered into the small space between the enemy vehicle and two trashcans by their driveway. Thanks to my quick reactions, there was no damage to either car or passengers. We were all on the way to trade in the Minivan to get a new family car...I feel like gaming saved my life.

They looked at action games, which is interesting. But I really hope to see other genres studied more heavily, as they likely will be, and would be very curious about the effects.
TBS games being one such case. Obviously you aren't going to improve your reaction times much, but what kind of problem solving would it help with most?
RTS games I would personally anticipate have effects halfway inbetween TBS and action games, but I wonder if this hypothesis would pan out.
Then you have a lot of games that don't fall clearly into one category or another, like Armello, Undertale, and Scribblenauts.
Simulators would be another interesting thing, especially flight sims like FSX and DCS.
Then there is the fact that a different TBS may have an entirely different effect. For example, Galactic Civilizations has more creative components than Civilization (regarding playing, not modding). But Civilization might have some advantages of GC. Can't think of any offhand, tbh.

peripheral vision with the intent to help an athlete over time react quicker i.e. seeing and responding to a moving object quicker.

I taught to a friend to lose fear by playing need for speed most wanted long time ago. At the very first, she wasn't able to correclty take a curve with the car. She just leaved the keyboard with no idea of what to do. Then I explained her that she has to think before she think she has to think (preview the future let say), and to be cold blooded. Finally, she ended the game in first place in all the stages of the game in many, many times and this also impacted in her life, specially taking fast and correct desicions, which also raised her self-steam and her lidership. Also, she gained a lot of mental focus just like in the videogame, but in other tasks. So yes, videogames can help people, but it will depend a lot on the willingness of the person since many gamers are just a bunch of scremers.

Thing is, if you want to be pro, and make a living out of it (and it is possible nowadays) you cant have moderation, so main issue is, how to tell a kid, you can't play the game 6, 7 hours (to be pro guys play over 12 hours per day, in Korea probably even more), if his dream is to play games for living.. being programmer and sitting whole day in front of computer is the same thing, being a professional football (soccer) player also takes great dedication and all it takes is one injury for it all to be in vain, so it will be a big challenge for parents to keep saying to their kids to follow their dreams but to stop playing games 6 hours a day... ahha
If you wanna be average, sure

Sounds like people who play Call of Duty and think they would actually be the most badass soldiers ever to live in real life. 😆 they'd die first in combat.

@@royalebomber6432 Tell me how you're any better! All I'm saying is parents are very gullible because this video is saying very few off the negative effects and all of the few positive effects.

Daniel Vos buys son PS4 with hard earned money to make him happy. TH-cam comment “you have bad parents”, 🤷🏻♂️

If I’m not working, or working on my cars or driving them. I definitely play games on my free time, and definitely have noticed my reaction time drastically improved, along with my decision making skills under pressure.
I've been gaming all my life. Started out at 6 years of age playing quake III arena against bots and now I'm 24 playing apex legends. One thing I noticed that I'm far better in compared to the normal population is my Reaction time. Turns out playing FPSes for your entire life makes both your simple and choice reaction time better
Yeah the videogames tutor thing still makes me laugh. I grew up with prople that learned by playing themselves without the help of tutors...
It really doesn't happen to be honest only for dad's that wanna bond with their kids which is really really weird
I couldn't think of a name that would be funny do you need a tutor for your username?
Being pro is a long journey, so to cut it short, Tutorial can give advice and tips for techniques. It might sound weird but knowing that the prize is worth millions of dollars then having a mentor is not a bad idea.
You and everyone else dude like what
Black & White the game will probably die out soon, so by the time these kids get as good as the people who were naturally good, there wont be tournaments like that
People see me as a low life being these days because I play a lot of video games...

4:56 On the other hand you can clearly see how anxious the gamer is in comparison to the journalist. The body language could be a sign of that.
I have adhd. Ive played games all my life and I have been told that I no longer seem like I even have adhd and people got surprised when I told them I had it. Im so glad that games are being looked at as a medicine for adhd and other medical issues.
when your dad or mom tells you to go outside and then they proceed to watch sports on TV
Yeah well, one more reason to do better and go outside
That's like trying to compare apples to gorillas. If you don't understand how then it's not worth explaining what a ridiculous attempt at a comparison that was.
Ever since I started playing video games, it's actually helped me a little bit in PE when we have to catch things. My friend convinced me to start playing and I've loved it ever since
i did those hand stretches and it made my wrist crack really loudly but now it feels better than ever haha
I wrote an 8 page essay on how video games actually help improve most of this stuff in Highschool 😁
@Idopeee what? I'm sorry I dont understand 😅
