Dream-Controlling Gamers

Livescience Study Says Gamers Have More Control Over Dreams

A LiveScience study has recently shown that video game addicts are actually more apt to have control over their dreams while they sleep, almost like they're gaming dream controllers. The LiveScience study showed that gamers are more apt to understand alternate realities and therefore are able to fight nightmares or mental trauma easier then those who have no contact with video games at all.

So next time you're around a video game, I suggest you take a turn because you may be a gaming dream controller too; you'll also have better spatial skills and be less prone to motion sickness.
