if they wanted to stop people to buy the games according to the sales it's too late

Yeah, I wonder as well why they took so long to do this.

Research takes time, sometimes years.

True.

Could have taken them less time if they ate a salad.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

Why memory tests? I've never considered a nimble mind one that is particularly strong at remembering random stuff.

I've never played the two games though and have no idea what sort of challenges they make you go through. On the other hand can really see the benefit of games like Professor Layton. Unfortunately I couldn't quite get to profit from its making-you-think quest since a lot of the problems were rather trivial if you'd taken some maths, and I couldn't make myself forget stuff that I knew. Still, the answers were great for coming up with the result employing little more than logic.

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

How is forgetting something helping my brain?

Passing the fact that searching the internet on a topic is also mental workout:
10 mins 3 times a week... so 30 mins a week for 6 weeks... a wooping 3 hours played over 2 months.... what a great research.

These are the same guys that did the research on the mind... you know, the one where you stare at a goat!!!

I like how the study left off the 19% improvement in Mathematics that both the pen and paper group and DS group experienced. It may not make you smarter... But it sure as hell doesn't make you dumber.
