"See baby, I told you" - borez, on 12/21/2008, -0/+12Isn't all this a bit obvious, you use your brain more, it doesn't stagnate. It ain't rocket science.
- Skooma714, on 12/21/2008, -0/+9Pwning noobz, it does a mind good.
- AlanFang, on 12/21/2008, -0/+8Great, now my Grandmother is going to be playing WOW with me.
- Garofoli, on 12/21/2008, -0/+6Sadly, people still won't see this as an excuse to play an obscene amount of video games...
- NixiePixel, on 12/21/2008, -0/+6Yes! Built-in excuse for being a slacker well into my golden years.
- jedisushi, on 12/21/2008, -5/+10Pfft. Diggers don't have girlfriends. ;-)
- garlicdeath, on 12/21/2008, -0/+5That's pathetic when your grandparents have better twitch skill than you.
Is your hand too fat that you can't move the mouse fast enough or something? - CoreyTamas, on 12/21/2008, -0/+4Buried because now 100 of my "friends" are going to send me the link to this article, suggesting I should start playing video games, because they think it'll be funny.
- jedisushi, on 12/21/2008, -0/+3Stimulating the imagination and practicing hand-eye coordination might be good for you? Ya don't say!
- KRY4no1, on 12/21/2008, -1/+4I got my grandparents into it.
My grandma is already owning my score in Counter Strike, her K:D ratio is twice what mine is. - msaleem, on 12/21/2008, -2/+5Especially if they are games like Brain Age from Nintendo, or Brain Challenge on PSN.
- theadvinci, on 12/21/2008, -0/+3Don't be an ass... Give your grandmother the computer for a change.

- ThatSwedishGuy, on 12/21/2008, -0/+2The brain - use it or lose it. Simple as that.
- unbenamtl, on 12/21/2008, -0/+2You bet it does.
- diggdong, on 12/22/2008, -0/+2Imagination and hand eye coordination. I should be a ***** genius by now. Instead I just have a crusty pile of socks.
- enclaved, on 12/21/2008, -0/+2Now you've made me feel insecure about my body because I was never very good at cs, thanks a lot you insensitive clod.

- macapplejobs, on 12/21/2008, -0/+1Yes....killing Murlocs over and over is good for my brain...
Gwarabbblee!!! - DelMonte, on 12/21/2008, -0/+1You're right, I stand corrected...

- Dustin00, on 12/22/2008, -0/+1Always explore new things. That is how you exercise your brain.
Just like your muscles (and what ThatSwedishGuy just said), use it or lose it. - neoreo30, on 12/22/2008, -0/+1Lets try not to advertise...

- Fitbrains, on 05/11/2009, -0/+0I have been working in the brain fitness space since 2001 and we have come along way. There has been significant scientific studies over the last 5 years that illustrate how we can maintain and develop our cognitive skills through our lifespan. Our company has started to launch pilots that provide more efficacy to our software. I truly believe the next 5 years will see a lot of positive developments in this area.

www.fitbrains.com - Synectikos, on 02/19/2009, -0/+0I found a great site with brain games you can PLAY FOR FREE! They have about 15 games training your brain in all areas like Memory and Concentration.
My favorite game is Wonder Juice Machine! :)

- puppetmaster194, on 12/21/2008, -2/+0I don't know about anyone else, but I have experienced this phenomenon firsthand. I have noticed that after I started playing WoW, my memory and organizational skills both improved. So take that, parents, siblings, friends, and congressmen I see on T.V.!
