good article and true!  I hadnt shot a gun in over 10 years and i nearly qualified expert with the 9mm in the AF.  (I actually had more than the required number of head shots, but missed by two centermass body shots).  I attribute to years of FPS games.

Heh, this might be the reason why I can beat my family in, shoot forgot which game it was... it was either Scene It or Trivial Pursuit Pop Culture, but I can beat them in this funky crossword puzzle thing that slowly fills in the clues but it's somewhat hard to see. I don't think they've ever won one of those and they hate me for always being able to see what's going on.

There was an article about games improving hand-eye coordination a few years ago - may have mentioned the surgeons playing them, I can't remember. I said something to my mom about it and she laughed and said "I hoped you hadn't seen that"
