7. Learn Real Life Skills From Modern Simulations
A few generations back, the graphical capabilities of chipsets barely replicated what was meant to be a game of football on a television screen. Not to mention, the whole proceedings would be controlled by the help of 2 glorious buttons, A and B. Nowadays football games embrace the word simulation: the way the ball is passed around, intercepted and kicked, has been gloriously recreated while allowing the gamer to watch replays from just about any possible angles, heightening the feeling of reality like never before with realistic human moves. Titles such as Battlefield 3 elicit the use of military tactics in order to succeed making games curiously instructive in more ways than one when developers are constantly working on the human authenticity in many high-budget titles. Flight Simulator could give Joe-Schmo the confidence and ability to save his life in the event of a zombie epidemic on earth by flying a plane, or even better feed our defensive instincts in the face of hostility? Playing Fight Night Champion religiously might well help refine a silky right hook -violence is never an answer, but the point here is the realism behind modern titles not only adds to the experience but replicate real life situations with humongous focus on details that learning a thing or two can hardly be escaped.
