Xbox brain workout

If you’re feeling a tad fuzzy, like your brain is in a bit of a funk, you can now give your grey matter a workout via your gaming console.

Gameloft’s Brain Challenge, on Xbox LIVE Arcade, is a brain training program that is supposed to help players develop stress-management skills.

It will cost you 800 Microsoft points to grab the game, so I suppose it is cheaper (and slightly more legal) than a Taser. But is it as much fun?

While we’re on the subject of Xbox, did you know your 360 console lets you physically limit the amount of play time your offspring gets on the machine? You can use the Xbox 360 Family Timer feature to set a time limit. It shuts the console off once it has been reached but warns junior first, so he or she can save their game.
