How Video Games Are Beneficial

Some people may say that video games are a waste of time or that they aren't good for you. But German researchers have found out that video games help with spatial navigation, memory formation, forming a strategy and motor skills in your hands.
The researchers did an experiment asking 23 adults around 25 years of age to play super Mario 64 every day for 30 minutes for 2 months, and then a second control group didn't do any thing and they found out that the people who did play the game had increased motor skills and strategy formation.

This is accurate information because a friend of mine he doesn't play video games and his strategy formation and motor skills in his hands aren't that great. On the other hand I've been playing video games for a long time and my strategy formation and motor skills are great. For example I play paintball for fun and one time I was in the middle of a game and we could see that the other team was all around us so I came up with an idea. My idea was to get up in to the trees and have a decoy down on the ground as bait. And when the came to attack him we all started shooting them and we had won.
So what do you guys think are video games good for you?
