[quote=The-Shoveler]These days the younger generation plays video games for thrills, we used to have to go out and risk our lives (well ok maybe just serious injury) just so we could get a thrill.
Same with cars I think, need a speed thrill, just play a racing video game.
Very few teens and twenty something’s out on the slopes compared to my generation anyway.[/quote]
Actually some of the guys that played the racing video games actually “graduated” to real racing…Check out nissan’s racing program.
There’s been studies that actually some of these games develop such good hand eye coordination…. I believe a lot of the commando style games are such, and there’s been studies that some of the gamers reflexes are much more adept if placed behind a real trigger….
