1. What surprised me ?
-I was surprised by the fact that the United States military actually made a game called "America's Army" to attract peoples. It was Wardynski, who came out with this incredible idea. If the military sold the game at a price comparable to other video games, the Army would have earned about $600 million in first year. Also, the fact that more than 40 percent of game players are women shocked me. I thought girls do not play games.
2. What did you already know??
-I knew that laughing is good for our health, and I also knew that playing game is good for us !!! however, my father does not believe it. I was right !! haha~
