[i]Games like World of Warcraft give players the means to save worlds, and incentive to learn the habits of heroes. What if we could harness this gamer power to solve real-world problems? Jane McGonigal says we can, and explains how.[/i]
she's kind of right
that gamers end up being more organised in games than real life
and that that same organisation would help solve other stuff
Imagine if we dedicated all the time and knowledge to other things
Imagine if we could concentrate as hard as we do on gaming on more important fields such as medicines and science
The entire speech

Posted just above you, But I watched it, I was like... haha. That's me.
I wouldn't say gamers make a better world, I would just call it a hobby. Gamers are just people. No more, no less.
That fucking voice..
The lisp..
GOD MY EARS.
Jesus Christ she is mental.
"This gamer is on the verge of, what is known as, an Epic Win"
No, it's a guy forced to stay up cause he's stupidly addicted to games.
She has a point, I mean if pokemon were real I know I'd sure as hell strive to be the very best.
The best that ever was.....
... Like no one ever was ...
.....To catch them is my real test....
...and to train them is my cause...
...I will travel across the land...
I believe I can fly. I believe I can touch the sky.
She used to many memes.
You ruined the song!
:(
an epic win?
...searching, far and wide...
What happens next?

Thank you that was the point.
Hmm, tempted to stop watching after she said "epic win" but maybe I'll press on
