Should Your Games Try to Improve You?

NoBSGamers writes: "There was a time when the purpose of a video game was simple. It existed solely to entertain you. Sure, companies were in it for profit, but the product was all about fun. Today however, the sirens song of self improvement has warmed its way into the ears of game makers, and games that also teach have gone from Pre-K to a multi-million dollar industry."
