Why You So Liddat #9 - Video Games: Good or Bad?

Why You So Liddat is a show that explores the mind, our behaviour, and why we are the way we are. Till today, video games are still blamed for all sorts of bad things...antisocial behaviour, violence...it's even been painted as the cause of some of the most tragic shootings in America. However, Daniel's research actually shows that video games are really good for you. Daniel tells us some of those benefits and digs into the reasons why we spend billions of hours playing video games.
