Excellent game and yes skill is involved.

You are learning positive skills.
- hand and eye coordination
- problem solving
- team work, where cooperative play is available.

Otherwise, its just good entertainment.

Ok Tsuk


So which one is it?

Video games are GOOD for you: Even violent shoot-em-ups boost learning, health and social skills, finds study

Playing action-based video games could make you more prone to mental disorders, study claims

Anything in moderation is ok guess.
I'm not a kid playing games to prove my superiority online.
But, I'll admit, what fascinates me is the graphics engines they manage to improve year after year, and Artificial Intelligence of enemies.
Dude, when an enemy AI capability makes you rethink strategy, it perks my interest...... It's just you vs the machine. It's game on. Bring it.

I used to try and play Wolfenstein 3D with just my fists...

I don't play these games anymore, but I do in my dreams... that is what I'm worried about...
