^ i have been giving gaalis (in my mind ofc) to my manager, because he probably never played AoE/AoE/CoC type strategy games seriously, and therefore doesn't know how to deploy resources as per their strength and weaknesses. this is sometimes, when, we get flooded with somany calls from our client. :shh_NF:

1. Witcher 2 - Pool is great for sex.
2. Mass Effect - Age of your lover doesn't matter.
3. Witcher 3 - You can't just have sex "with" the pony but "on" the pony as well.
4. Dragon Age Origins - Have sex before going to war, and everything will be alright.
These are just few, there are many others as well which teach us great many things about sex.

1. If there is a pool in your office area then you have higher chance of getting laid by colleagues.
2. If your boss is old and is interested in you. DO NOT TURN HER DOWN.
3. You can go on horse race track for fun with office girls on weekends, if you wanna have sex with her.
4. I guess that one is quite obvious.

Nice list and great points added!!
My List:
19. Multi Tasking.
20. Tracking issues like you'd track an enemy NPC. Also having spatial awareness helps to know where the boss/lead is at all times and I can open up Digit
21. Better hand-eye coordination and better reflexes.
22. Assessing a situation fast and accurately.
23. Better seating ergonomic than anyone else due to those long gaming sessions. Also, better monitor brightness/color adjustments. Hence, less fatigue.
