The mind does funny things to our body. In this world, this realm of reality, our mind controls the way well feel and experience pleasure as mush as pain. A lot of us as reached out for games mainly for pleasure and entertainment but is that all it is to it? Games has so much more value that we give credit.
Burn patients in the US are being helped to escape the pain of burn injuries by immersing them in the virtual reality of a computer game during treatment. Patients who played the game while having treatment experienced less pain. Patients can escape into the virtual reality of games like "Snow World", with brain scans done on patients who have used the therapy showing a decrease in pain-related brain activity.
