How do you turn your average bloke into an electronic age caveman? Just put a video game console around him. This is not just a rambling statement but one backed by brain activity research
Stanford University men of science tested participants by rigging them to an MRI scanner while they played a video game that needed them to win territory. Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus was the outcome of this experiment.
Motivational differences abounded among men and women. As territory accumulated brain activity increased among men. Interestingly women were less driven to succeed in the game. Only Too Human.
Speaking of Too Human, that is the name of a game being developed by Silicon Knights. Touted as the next big video game, it has been four years in the making and is a cross between Norse mythology and science fiction.
The game recieved criticism early on but seems to be better liked as it nears release. Four years in the making Too Human is eagerly awaited, can’t wait to get my hands on my copy!
