About 40% of a pros actions come from pressing hotkeys, and they play thousands of practice games so no situation is ever really new to them. I remember a video where some researchers hooked up equipment to monitor the brain activity of two people playing Starcraft - a noob and a progamer. The noob was mostly using the visual areas of the brain, whereas the pro was using the memory areas. If you can do 500 notes/minute on those crazy guitar hero songs, you're fast enough to play Starcraft easily. yeah especially if you practice using the same build-orders over and over, there will be much less time spent making decisions and after memorizing the build you will be playing from mostly muscle memory for the first part of the game. | ||

Perhaps someone should add it to Incontrol's OP. http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=20090108scifi01 WCG Ultimate Gamer consists of eight 1-hour episodes and is set to premiere in March 2009... This exciting new series features a diverse group of contestants who embark on an intense and emotional journey, all hoping to win prizes that include $100,000 cash... As the 12 contestants share a loft in downtown Los Angeles, they will be tested in real-life challenges inspired by best-selling game titles, compete in the video games themselves, and ultimately must avoid elimination in head-to-head battle in an arena filled with hundreds of spectators. | ||

If you were a RL guitar player, your gonna have a MASSIVE advantage over someone who hasnt played guitar before. A lot moreso than someone who hasnt played guitar hero in that challenge. | ||

The production values seemed solid, and I'm also looking forward to seeing some hard-core gamers either wrecking some really nice cars or beating each other up. Preferably both at the same time. | ||
