And aside from action games, free soccer games are some of the PC version games that is highly played by people today due to the great influence and excitement that real soccer have provided to people.

A new study conducted by known psychologists revealed that the abilities that are tapped by playing soccer games could be the building blocks for intelligence.

According to the most recent issue of the American Journal of Play, a new study have revealed that there is a long-lasting positive effect of playing video games on the basic mental process of a person, namely the perception, memory, attention, and decision-making. Contrary to the belief that such games will not bring any good to people, this, in fact, could sharpen the logical and cognitive reasoning of people who are playing these games. That is because they are facing several challenges in order to finish the game such as moving rapidly, keeping items on track, remembering essential information, devising an effective strategy to outwit opponents and make split-second decisions.

In identifying this profound result, the research study had employed two strategies which are the correlation and experimental. And based from the results, it was found that the study group under the experimental study has shown promising outcomes where the nongamers that were asked to play certain games were able to display improvements on the basic perceptual and cognitive abilities compared to the controlled group that employs the correlation strategy.

Other benefits of playing video and online games were also identified in the study.

- Improvement in visual contrast sensitivity

- Treatment to amblyopia or lazy eye

- Enhancement of spatial attention

- Boost performance in tracking moving objects in a distracted field

- Impulsiveness is reduced

- Dyslexia can be overcome

- The ability to do multiple tasks simultaneously is amped

Moreover, the positive effects of playing video games were also witnessed on adults' job performance. It was found that people with jobs that require good eye-hand coordination, excellent working memory, attention and quick decision-making were able to perform better compared to adults who do not play video or PC games at all.

In fact, for cognitive scientists, the result of the study is very interesting as these only shows that the brain is moldable and for many psychologists, the study only indicates that games are efficient and faster component of building up intelligence compared to any intervention that has been devised.

Consequently, video and PC games are created not only to entertain people but also to educate them with knowledge and skill sets that will be useful in their everyday life. The only thing that makes games good or bad is the hours and attention that people spend in playing which could surely affect their daily activities if not organized and managed well.
