AsapSCIENCE on YouTube answers just about any kind of question you can imagine, from questions like whether or not plants think to the question we’ve all asked ourselves sometime in our lives, what would happen if we stopped sleeping? This week, AsapSCIENCE asks, “Can video games make you smarter?”

You still get it, don’t you? That sneer on the face of someone who thinks that the hours spent playing video games are a waste of time. Here, show them this. If you’re the kind of person that follows the myriad ways that games can improve your abilities, much of the stuff in this video from AsapSCIENCE will be old hat. But, if it’s new to you, then you’ll come away with interesting findings as just how good games can be for your brain.
