The Importance of Stretching to a Gamer

"Stretching is typically something done before exercising, but it should also be done on occasion while gaming. When playing any video game, the hands and forearms are put under tension—not a whole lot of tension, but enough that it can, over time, become uncomfortable and potentially pose health risks. Doing some light stretching during a long gaming session would relieve some stress." -Zack C.

Yeah I should probably start stretching before I game my right hand has been numb for a week now it's driving me crazy, it's probably from playing Rocksmith for too long.

BLACKBIBLE3920d ago

Yeah it could be actually. We're going to have an article posted with a few hand exercises. Be sure to follow us to be on the look out for it.

The title and pic together make me laugh for some reason.

kcuthbertson3920d ago

No joke...I just sprained my thumb the other day playing mortal kombat against my gf. For real...

BLACKBIBLE3920d ago

Yeah, At one point I had aching in my hands from playing so much Uncharted.

rezzah3920d ago

When I play long hours on games that require a lot of finger movements I always stretch my fingers during loading screens. Loading actually helps.

Even though fans have been clamoring for a StarCraft 3 for years now, it seems like Blizzard really has no reason to spend time making one.

They sort of ran the story as far as it could go.

Also, it seems like blizzard is more busy with mediocrity at this point in time.

The problem with Blizzard is they have franchises that don't need sequels. People are happy playing the games that they previously made. What they need is new games, none of this business of trying to transport the old audience into a new version of an old game which only ends up nickle and dime'ing users.

RTS; it's a beloved genre...but it's in dire need of originality or it risks being consigned to a small pool of fans.

In my opinion, they have evolved and become more complicated. Way back in the day with command and conquer games, they were easier to pick up and play. I’ll actually go further back to a $70 Super Nintendo game called “Metal Marines”. Not sure if I’m off the mark, but these cellphone, real time strategy games become overwhelming quickly to me. There’s too much going on at once and it turns me off. Not sure if there are any on consoles to be honest. If there is a RTS that is on PS4, I’m open to the recommendation

Metal marines... what a game, and Herzog Zwei too.

Ensemble Studios and Westwood closing spelt absolute disaster for RTS games, with exception of blizzard, no one made any real good ones. Microsoft and EA ruined two top franchises before closing the studio. such a shame

Over complicated. Dawn of War 1 was almost the perfect rts, its all been downhill since.
