Guys abeg, playing video games of any type: mobile, PC, or console, does it any way make you smart or it just depletes your level of smartness, that is, does it make one dull? |

Smarter: you get to make decisions on the fly. Some RTS games require critical thinking. 8 Likes |

It increases your thinking ability in all aspect of life.... Am a game addict from birth: from terminator-ps1-xbox-ps2-Andriod games-ps3-ps4.... i play game even in my dream 7 Likes |

It makes us smarter. If you look at games like Call of Duty, Metal Gear, Soccer, the gamer makes split second decisions, the gamer develops tactics and reflexes. For those love war/ops/espionage games, we learn military terms like Extraction, Alpha 2 delta, hostile at twelve o clock (using the concept of clock for cardinal pointing), hot zone (too much gun fire at an area), intel, Ammo (bullet stockpile), guns like SMG, RPG, Shotgun, WP grenade, C4, aerial assault, ground units, hit the dirt and many more i cant mention - - - I remember playing GTA vice city, i didnt even use the map the game gave me cos i knew my way round the whole city by air and road. 22 Likes 6 Shares |

Smarter. Video games improve your hand-eye coordination, improve your reflexes, test your memory, test your judgement, and improve your knowledge in some cases. Video games are like a skill that you improve at. Just look at people that play PES, Mortal Kombat and others. Look at me with my skill in Super Smash Bros. and almost any racing game! Don't forget that they are 100% fun! I play video games! 2 Likes 1 Share |

It's a time waster. Movies actually make you smarter. Certain games like Chess also make you think more strategically. 1 Like |
