I was watching a show called Brain
Child on National Geographic (

http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/PT/popup/200709182200.html

), and in it they mentioned a study that a few psychologists put
togerther. They worked with children (from poor families) from birth to
about five years old. They played games and puzzles with them that they
thought would increase the childrens’ intelligence. Supoosedly the
majority of them surpassed their peers and grew up with a love of learning.
Do you know anything about this study? Who did the study? What the
name of it was? A link to an article? What kind of games they played?

Help finding good xbox 360 games?

Question:
Just bought an xbox and am loving my new kinect! But I’d also like to try out some good console games. but it feels like hardly any of them are targeted at me. So here’s what does or doesn’t interest me, if you have any good recommendations, I’d love to hear them…

1) I’m a girl. Don’t need to get into a whole girls/boys thing, but it does make a difference. Not the girliest girl you’d ever meet, but not a huge tomboy either. Basically, cloying cuteness kind of bugs me, but the thought of getting to play an army ranger and shoot bad guys isn’t that appealing either.
2) On that note, not interested in shooting games. just holds zero appeal.
3) nope on sports games too. have tried a few, know what would interest me, and it would sustain my interest for very long.
4) I do really like puzzles, in regular. brain teasers, jigsaws, sudoku, crossword…you name it, I like it.
5) Huge fan of mysteries and thrillers, so that genre would interest me. But I don’t like horror. Don’t know if that distinction makes sense to some, but basically I like exciting twists and turns, don’t mind murder, but don’t like it if it’s just a axe murder slashing everyone, or if it’s got a supernatural bent. But give me a good patterson, sherlock holmes, law and order, etc any day of the week.
6) Have very little experience with RPG or anything like that. It does seem like a lot of those are fantasy or sci-fi themed. That doesn’t interest me in particular, but it wouldn’t exclude something if the game was good enough.
7) I love a really good story. that would make a difference. 8) Loved Mario Bros back in the day, and downloaded Braid at the recommendation of my cousin – am really liking it so far. Am also playing lego harry potter, which is really fun.

Realize this is a random list, but if I just cut out the things that don’t interest me (military, sports, sci-fi, and fantasy) it feels like there are no games left. So if there’s a few gems I might like, but wouldn’t try because they’re more obscure, or i’ve characterized them unfairly, i’d love to hear it.
