Love the Friday features but will never get over not seeing Robs intros every week lol. But content is still as great as ever guys keep up the good work access :)
I relate to number 4 so much, I learned English by playing Final Fantasy X which only had English VA but had German subtitles. That does wonders for learning a language.
@@mat_musicat True, it was because the subtitles were translated from the Japanese version rather than the English one. But at that point you could really tell when it matched and when it didn't.
I was just thinking about this the other day. Dark Souls 3 actually changed my life. It taught me that something that seems impossible can actually be overcome with time and determination. I didn't understand this before. I didn't understand that the process of progress involves long periods where you feel like you're wasting your time. I always gave up at that point, never stuck with anything, and my life was a mess because of it. I enjoyed DS3 enough to stick with it, and the process of improving my skill to overcome each new challenge opened my eyes to the way human progress actually works. I've applied those lessons to other areas of my life now, like fitness and learning, and am reaping the rewards.
Games gave me better hand-eye coordination, memory, puzzle solving and such but the new skill I've learned is the Sith Flurry combo from Force Unleashed. Not very useful but still fun to do.
Unfortunately I don’t think games are providing much problem solving lessons anymore with all the guides available. At least puzzles no longer require much solving anymore.
Instead of talking about the subject of the video, I'm gonna take this opportunity to say every member of Playstation access is adorable. Like seriously, they all are the cutest things. I so appreciate their humor and energy and genuine love for video games. Keep being you, all!
Honestly, there should be a part two to this, featuring stuff from Twitter, tumblr, etc. There's the kid who managed to guide his lost class around an Italian city because of Assassin's Creed 2, and the other kid who managed to drive an out-of-control car (the driver passed out, or something like that) due to his hours of playing driving games.
As a professor of Carology at the University of Petrolheads, I'd like to present this award to Rob Pearson for knowing the names of at least 5 different cars.
I don't know about skills but gaining knowledge by playing video games happened for me and my twin brother decades ago. We both had science class as well as similar exams on the subject so when we both received near perfect scores the teachers asked how we knew so much about the current subject as it was a surprise exam. We both smiled and said "Learned all of it from a great game we have beaten over a dozen times each by now." That exam was all about how mitochondria works in the human body and the game....of course...was Parasite Eve. lol Thanks square.
Nathan has been removed from the Access Team pic😔 Miss him. Can't wait to see what y'all have in store for us tomorrow! Really excited. Thanks for the great content as per usual. Lots of love❤
First things first.Thanks for this video and Language it's definitely an ability that video games contributed a lot to the English that I have today. I just LOVE English since ALWAYS and I live in Brazil and a big part of my Knowledge came from PlayStation games since the PlayStation 1 in the 90's. My English is not fluent yet but Thanks to the games, I just did 6 months of English Course just to give me foundation and I can read books in English and perfectly understand all of you guys are saying here, I can talk in the chat, I love this channel and you all also help me to improve this knowledge. I just have a little difficult to express myself sometimes but I'm work on it. So, thanks PlayStation 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in the future and thank you guys to help me almost everyday with this language that I love so much. Thanks!
I’m old enough to remember playing Math Blasters at my elementary school which was a great way to learn that I really don’t like math haha oh and also The Oregon Trail which taught me what dysentery is so there’s that
It's funny how you learn Dutch as a English person by gaming, while I have learned a lot of English as a Dutch person by the same medium. Lekker bezig!
GTA 4 taught me how to drive a speedboat. I learned from the game that when the steering is done by the outboard motor instead of a rudder you have to apply power to be able to turn. This came in handy when I drove one for real on holiday, I could do it but my wife (a non-gamer) couldn’t. I’m also convinced I can fly a helicopter but sadly I haven’t had the chance in real life.
I improved my German a lot playing a video game while at university. It was in English, but I used to play alongside a friend's girlfriend who was Polish, and German was the only language we had in common. She typically needed me to translate when her boyfriend was at his lectures.
Soulsbornekirodenring games taught me how to accept failure, learn from it, and take on the challenge again with new knowledge. Really helped with my OCD and anxiety.
Rob talks about the squat mini game but what about the pull-up ones? The one against Jules was so annoying & I was just so happy when I beat it. That one probably taught me about failure
Red Faction taught me I would not want to travel to Mars. Although I have not used video games to learn a language , when I was in high school I was taking German. I made my teacher laugh because she said I was pronouncingthe German words with an Austrian accent.
Tetris and Unpacking taught me a lot about space management. Even though I thought I had things where I wanted them, ooooh, changes were needed after playing Unpacking.
* Any time I've skidded out whilst driving irl I immediately reacted right and recovered from all the times I've skidded out in driving games. * How herding cattle works (from Red Dead Redemption 1). * How to load different types of guns from Gun Club and other games with manual reloading mechanics in PSVR. * Lateral thinking/puzzle solving from all the adventure games I've played all my life.
I highly agree with #2 thanks to Rocksmith I was able to learn the bass guitar. I don't even use a pick and I can play Hangar 18 by Megadeth with my fingers.
I think the photographer skill can apply not just to Martha is dead, but to every single photo mode in video games! I’ve been having loads of fun with Horizon Forbidden West’s photo mode recently, positioning my camera in the right place to get the right angle, choose the lens, adjust the depth of field, get Aloy to make different poses and faces, waking on filters and slowly but surely mastering my photography skills all through the medium of photo modes in games! 😊📸
I learned English from video games at an age of 8, 2 years before the first English class in school. It was by no means fluent, but I could speak English. Here we are 20 years later and still rocking the broken English, with a Danish accent.
Ok but I'm unbelievably happy that Rosie also played Spyro in different languages to learn new ones 🥺 I used to play Gateway to Glimmer in Spanish as a kid to try and learn from it! 😁💖
Videogames showed me some pretty cool outfits that I can wear in everyday real life. I've got outfits for Nathan Drake, Delsin Rowe and Joker from Persona 5
There was once a lock-picking skill in a game I played, as a kid. At one point, I stopped, said, "...This is a thing you can actually do in real life, right?" And like an hour of internet tutorials and effort later, I'd opened a padlock. In the intervening years, I've gotten two of my uncles back into their houses, helped with multiple filing cabinets whose keys were lost, and probably some other things, too. Granted, I didn't learn this FROM the game...but it did kick things off, anyway.
Not quite as exciting as learning to be a pro racing driver through GT, but I did learn how to manage my power and avoid crashing in a real life go kart, after playing as Blood Falcon in F-Zero for the GBA. The guy has no grip, so you need to manage your power while cornering. I only skidded twice... though I didn't know how to use the breaks, so I was going much slower than the other drivers, leading to multiple overtakes.
Runescape has taught me patience like no other. History lessons from a lot of games but Assassin's Creed is an obvious one for that. Greek & Norse mythology from God of War. Puzzle games to sharpen my mind and think outside the box. Video games are great! :D
Various car games made me familiar with how trailers behave. This in turn made it much much easier when i first tried to back up with a trailer in real life 😅
Horror games have taught me how to have greater spatial/environment awareness and to pay close attention to details. I swear some of the puzzles from silent hill and resident evil really makes you to take notes and pay close attention and now tormented souls ramps that up ten fold.
I learned sarcasm (The Borderlands series), patience and determination (Dark Souls series), taking risks and danger head on (Sekiro, Monster Hunter), and the importance of carton boxes (Metal Gear Solid series). Thank you games!
Parasite Eve helped me and the rest of my science class from staying behind for an extra 5 minutes at the end of the day.the question was what was the role of the mitochondria in the cell which is to release and exert energy,I wasn’t the brightest kid and the whole class thought I was doomed,and I could see the dissapointment on their faces as the teacher asked me the question because if I got it wrong it was 5 minutes behind for the whole class,at the time Fanta fruit twist had just come out in the uk 🇬🇧 so I made a deal with the teacher if I got it right she would have to buy me a can of fruit twist out the drinks machine and if I got it wrong then detention 😜gotta respect the hustle
1. Navigating space. My parents computer could play minecraft but only with min rendersistance and maximum fog. My brain now banks navigation information with minimal effort. You'll never find me lost.
While it hasn’t been as useful other than the time I unlocked my friends car door on Christmas for them, Elder Scrolls Oblivion gave me a good idea and visualization in my head when it came to learning to lock pick 😂 Maybe not the best example
I never could see the actual correlation between the guitar hero visuals and a real guitar. But Dave's not the only one who has said it transfers. Well Ok, I did learn one real guitar skill playing Guitar Hero. I learned how to play with my thumb behind the neck. Still can't do that on the actual guitar though. Throws my muscle memory.
My son basically learned to read by playing Pokemon, he hated the books he was given at school but couldn't get enough of Pokemon, and since there's no voice acting he had no choice but to read.
#1 Sadly, the DMV doesn’t accept holding tons of racing records toward getting a drivers license… #3 Reminds me of the PS3 game Afrika…that barely anyone else played…
Days Gone taught me how to make napalm... who knew you only needed a few polystyrene cups and some petrol?! Making it without blowing myself up, however? Well, I guess we'll find out when the zombie apocalypse gets here 😰
I saw and considered buying Martha Is Dead only a few days ago and now I see it on here too. Looked like it would be a pretty unknown and rarely mentioned game.
Love the Friday features but will never get over not seeing Robs intros every week lol. But content is still as great as ever guys keep up the good work access :)
As a Dutch person, i.loved the dutch phrases, it really cracked me up, @Rosie, your first sentence was pretty spot on btw
As a fellow dutchie i agree. For a beginner it sounded really good.
Blijf oefen @Rosie het klinkt al heel goed.
@Rosie wij zijn trots op je
It sounds more Afrikaans than Dutch.
I speak Afrikaans which is a language that has some of the same pronunciation as Dutch
@@janellebarkhuizen7111 It is Dutch, just a different dialect.
I relate to number 4 so much, I learned English by playing Final Fantasy X which only had English VA but had German subtitles. That does wonders for learning a language.
Experienced exactly the same! But it wasn’t very faithful to the original translations sometimes.
Yuna „I love you.“
Subtitles „Danke“ xD

Dealing with failure, patience, camoflage, improved vocabulary, dealing with stress, philosophy and budgeting. Just a few skills that games teach.
Honestly, there should be a part two to this, featuring stuff from Twitter, tumblr, etc. There's the kid who managed to guide his lost class around an Italian city because of Assassin's Creed 2, and the other kid who managed to drive an out-of-control car (the driver passed out, or something like that) due to his hours of playing driving games.
It’s a very sad day. Nathan has been removed from the final credits screen. A very sad day.
After 30+ years of gaming, I am probably near getting my masters in Norse Mythology... but I can never remember the names of Odin's ravens!
Memory (Muninn) and Thought (Huginn). I learned that from Alan Wake.
As a professor of Carology at the University of Petrolheads, I'd like to present this award to Rob Pearson for knowing the names of at least 5 different cars.
I would say playing video games helps your hand-eye coordination, which is good for real-life skills such as driving a car.
If horror and survival games taught me anything, it is always to close the door after going through the door, and not before going through it.

Banjo-Kazooie taught my son to count. "You have this many Mumbo heads, how many more do you need?"
Listening from the Netherlands i appreciate hearing you guys speaking dutch. Love you guys
I’m old enough to remember playing Math Blasters at my elementary school which was a great way to learn that I really don’t like math haha oh and also The Oregon Trail which taught me what dysentery is so there’s that
It was number munchers for me. I can still hear the satisfying crunch of eating a correct answer.
It's funny how you learn Dutch as a English person by gaming, while I have learned a lot of English as a Dutch person by the same medium. Lekker bezig!

That's legitimately awesome!
My son started his music career because of rock band
Genuine lol at Dave's appearance!
Rob talks about the squat mini game but what about the pull-up ones? The one against Jules was so annoying & I was just so happy when I beat it. That one probably taught me about failure
"....ghosts" was damn good comedic timing! 🤣
As a bass player I’m offended by this yet also, yeah .. you’re right 😂
As a bass player I use rock smith to learn songs lol. Also I used to be a forensic photographer ash….I know the feeling lol
9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors from the Zero Escape series taught me how to calculate digital roots and convert between number bases
To cope with unbelievable pressure and overwhelming odds (From Software)
I miss the Friday Features from the olden days when Rob used to make em :(
I've always had VERY fast reactions in real life, I'd guess being a gamer most of my life has done that
Games have taught me how to deal with depression.
At least no matter how bad it gets, there's always gaming at the end of the day.
I learned how to drive a manual transmission car from playing Need for Speed Underground. 😄
Red Faction taught me I would not want to travel to Mars.
Although I have not used video games to learn a language , when I was in high school I was taking German. I made my teacher laugh because she said I was pronouncingthe German words with an Austrian accent.
The skill that every Soulsborne and Elden Ring fan get: Perseverance.
Bravo ladies and gents I like the more production heavy/skits included videos. This video is excellent 👌👌👌
Tetris and Unpacking taught me a lot about space management. Even though I thought I had things where I wanted them, ooooh, changes were needed after playing Unpacking.
Wish games taught me how to climb stuff...
Don’t be silly. We all know you can’t climb in real life 🤣
Yakuza taught me all the ways I can weaponize a bicycle.
Gotta say Rosie’s Dutch is pretty good!
Everything I learned about Poker I learned from Red Redemption 1 and 2. Blackjack too actually. And I learned numerous facts from Persona games.
Friday features are awesome... that is all
* Any time I've skidded out whilst driving irl I immediately reacted right and recovered from all the times I've skidded out in driving games.
* How herding cattle works (from Red Dead Redemption 1).
* How to load different types of guns from Gun Club and other games with manual reloading mechanics in PSVR.
* Lateral thinking/puzzle solving from all the adventure games I've played all my life.
Rosie, your first Dutch sentence was perfect! Didn't sound like a beginner at all😁 great content as always guys!
I highly agree with #2 thanks to Rocksmith I was able to learn the bass guitar. I don't even use a pick and I can play Hangar 18 by Megadeth with my fingers.
That intro though..😂😂 you’re the best Rosie!
I think the photographer skill can apply not just to Martha is dead, but to every single photo mode in video games!

And now there is GT movie being made.
And it’s actually kind of decent compared to most video game adaptations.
I'm dutch I learned English from games music movies and series
And I didn't expect to hear dutch in this episode
This was fun to watch 😄
5:02 that was actually really good, goed gedaan! :p
Shes got that that dutch gutheral G down quite well
Ok I am now going to say “Rock on, my dudes!” every time I walk into a room
Red Dead Redemption 2 has taught me how to recognise and identify a significant number of North American fish, birds, and plants by sight.
I learned English from video games at an age of 8, 2 years before the first English class in school.
It was by no means fluent, but I could speak English.
Here we are 20 years later and still rocking the broken English, with a Danish accent.
Ok but I'm unbelievably happy that Rosie also played Spyro in different languages to learn new ones 🥺
I used to play Gateway to Glimmer in Spanish as a kid to try and learn from it! 😁💖
RTS games taught me time management skills. Prioritization is key.
Videogames showed me some pretty cool outfits that I can wear in everyday real life.
I've got outfits for Nathan Drake, Delsin Rowe and Joker from Persona 5
Goed gedaan Rosie, vond het heel knap van je! As for me, trough videogames my English got better as well.

I only skidded twice... though I didn't know how to use the breaks, so I was going much slower than the other drivers, leading to multiple overtakes.
I wouldn’t have gotten so good at school due to my long hours of playing the super solver series on pc. The wonders of edutainment.
Runescape has taught me patience like no other. History lessons from a lot of games but Assassin's Creed is an obvious one for that. Greek & Norse mythology from God of War. Puzzle games to sharpen my mind and think outside the box. Video games are great! :D
Persona 5 helped me overcome my anxiety! not too bad for a game.
Playing fighting games has taught me how much patience I have. It also helped me in reading and recognizing people’s habits.
I have a small dream of driving a mostly normal car around the Nurburgring Nordschliefe. Or Nissan GTR. That would be cool...
Various car games made me familiar with how trailers behave. This in turn made it much much easier when i first tried to back up with a trailer in real life 😅
Horror games have taught me how to have greater spatial/environment awareness and to pay close attention to details. I swear some of the puzzles from silent hill and resident evil really makes you to take notes and pay close attention and now tormented souls ramps that up ten fold.
Played a snes video game of a virtual shooting range where the controler was a mok m16, all to get better at shooting
For me, mostly resource (money) management skills. Also direction/navigation
Probably the most useful skills I learned from video games were how to play poker and read an analog clock thanks to Red Dead Redemption. :)
I could understand the Dutch, which is pretty impressive! "Bevrijden" isn't an easy word.
Daves ride 4 jacket though 😂🤣😎
@TheDave 🤣🤣 rock-'n'-roll 😂
This is probably one of the most entertaining 7 from Games I've watched
No going to lie it would have been a nice cameo if Mike from outside xbox was there for the GT7 skit haha 😆
I learned how to rollerblade by watching how Shadow the Hedeghog moved in Sonic Adventure 2: Battle.
Je Nederlands klinkt al prima, ga zo door!
I learned sarcasm (The Borderlands series), patience and determination (Dark Souls series), taking risks and danger head on (Sekiro, Monster Hunter), and the importance of carton boxes (Metal Gear Solid series).
Thank you games!
One of the funniest videos U guys have done 🤣🤣
Parasite Eve helped me and the rest of my science class from staying behind for an extra 5 minutes at the end of the day.the question was what was the role of the mitochondria in the cell which is to release and exert energy,I wasn’t the brightest kid and the whole class thought I was doomed,and I could see the dissapointment on their faces as the teacher asked me the question because if I got it wrong it was 5 minutes behind for the whole class,at the time Fanta fruit twist had just come out in the uk 🇬🇧 so I made a deal with the teacher if I got it right she would have to buy me a can of fruit twist out the drinks machine and if I got it wrong then detention 😜gotta respect the hustle
Dynasty Warriors 3 for German, “ICH HABE KEINE OFFIZIER BEZIEGT” or something. It was about 20 years ago
I feel like when Dave said the hit it was pointed at rob lol
Dave saying hou op really sounded like a real dutchie 😁
1. Navigating space. My parents computer could play minecraft but only with min rendersistance and maximum fog. My brain now banks navigation information with minimal effort. You'll never find me lost.
Patience and determination, definetly!
As a non-native English speaker that has been playing since 7, number 4 is more of a necessity than just a benefit.
While it hasn’t been as useful other than the time I unlocked my friends car door on Christmas for them, Elder Scrolls Oblivion gave me a good idea and visualization in my head when it came to learning to lock pick 😂 Maybe not the best example
Learning some Roman numerals from the Final Fantasy series.
I never could see the actual correlation between the guitar hero visuals and a real guitar. But Dave's not the only one who has said it transfers. Well Ok, I did learn one real guitar skill playing Guitar Hero. I learned how to play with my thumb behind the neck. Still can't do that on the actual guitar though. Throws my muscle memory.
I have improved my english vocabulary from playing Pokemon countless times during my childhood. I'm portuguese :)
My son basically learned to read by playing Pokemon, he hated the books he was given at school but couldn't get enough of Pokemon, and since there's no voice acting he had no choice but to read.
#1 Sadly, the DMV doesn’t accept holding tons of racing records toward getting a drivers license…
#3 Reminds me of the PS3 game Afrika…that barely anyone else played…
I am absolutely *here* for all of Ash’s puns!
Never mind racing, videogames thought me a lot about how to DRIVE, as a kid.
Days Gone taught me how to make napalm... who knew you only needed a few polystyrene cups and some petrol?! Making it without blowing myself up, however? Well, I guess we'll find out when the zombie apocalypse gets here 😰
I saw and considered buying Martha Is Dead only a few days ago and now I see it on here too. Looked like it would be a pretty unknown and rarely mentioned game.
I didn't expect Rosie to do that :)
5:03 Not bad, not bad at all for a beginner.
As a Belgian guy who has spoken dutch all his life. Damn Rosie's dutch is good for 1 beginner
