IBM has designed a new video game to help university students and young professionals develop a combination of business and IT skills.

The Innov8 interactive 3D video game is designed to help bridge the gap in understanding between IT teams and business leaders.

Over 2,000 universities around the world can download the game from IBM's website and begin using it in their classrooms at no charge. More than 30 colleges and universities have already incorporated the game into their programme plans.

"The best kept secret in the world of computer and video games is the rise of a movement, now in the thousands, of gamers, universities and corporations dedicated to applying games to serious challenges such as education, training, medical treatment or better government," said David Rejeski, director of the Serious Games Initiative.

This type of simulation, often referred to as 'serious gaming', has the look and feel of a game but corresponds to business activities, such as improving operational processes.

It has emerged as an increasingly successful method to train the networked generation to develop new skills, in the same way as airline pilots initially learn using flight simulators.

Learning in video games? Maybe they dont trust teachers:

Allthough I dont fully agree with the hosts, these commercials are pretty funny to me. Ignore the commentary...

Too bad, I wish those commercials aired in North America...

Well it seems this is gonna be a wacky time. People think im Wiisucks becuase simply he has done that in the past, Wiisucks tells me to watch out for riser glen but he hasnt done anything bad and actually i laughed at all of his comments. But the part thats most wacky is NaturalMetal's way to put me down. He thinks im going to suck and stuff becuase they didnt like him.

I dont understand it. In class he comes over and starts saying shit like "just wait theyre gonna hate u next. and then not me."

Well maybe this is why colin u retard, (i found this on his profile go check for ur self, tho he can change it):

Hello i am Wiisucks Friend in real life. For months Wiisucks has bothered me to join destructoid. But im not unfamiliar to it. He always tells me his shananigans on destructoid. He joined, got banned, joined, got banned or something along those lines in short. Then you guys accepted him and gave him a rating "Master" but by this morning all ratings have been taken off?

I hope i have fun on this site, and with the end of this post i will say, no this isnt Wiisucks, this isnt his imaginary second personality, or a jew writing for him. Suprised he actually has freinds?
