Computer Games and Aptitude Tests

Hi

Are computer games helpful with passing the PILAPT tests? Would playing MS Flight Sim help to sharpen your reflexes and reactions?

Any Opinions?

No ... but I always find that nothing helps you relax after a hard 4 sector day in the airbus, like a good session of Gears of War multi player on Xbox live, team deathmatch. Got to love that chainsaw bayonet

i'd say that it does, especially with the keeping the joystick centered or whatever version they use - i found that helps you to get a clearer idea of what to do and for me, i thought FS was pretty good, but lots of people say it isn't...end of the day anything using a joystick requiring hand-eye coordination helps.
