January 9, 2008 Link to this post Halo 3 can help you navigate
There've been a number of articles over the years pointing out that videogames can help hone skills that are useful in real-world situations - from The Maritime Accident Casebook, there's a new one. Research shows that spatial awareness, a trait that's useful in ship handling, is more developed in men than in women - but playing video games like Halo can eliminate this gender difference. (Spatial Attention is improved in both men and women, but the effect is actually more pronounced in women.) Halo 3: leveling the playing field since 2007.
