Comments on: 'Tetris' can wipe out your traumas

Scientists at Oxford University believe that the first thing you should do after you get your head kicked in (after calling 911) is to play Tetris.

Oh, ducttape36. Good to know that you are already primed to forget any bad stuff that will happen in your life.

You may be the perfect CEO one day. Or, at least, Hedge Fund Manager.

Thank you for commenting.

that fully justifies my impulsive move to get tetris for my blackberry last week. awesome.

I suppose the real question is can you suppress those graphic and traumatic images by playing a graphic and violent game? And will tetris on the blackberry avoid trauma or cause it as thousands are struck by cars as they cross busy streets while distracted?

That being said, I'm glad Oxford has finally joined the gaming revolution.
