eldavojohn writes "Burn victims--especially soldiers from war--have been proven to deal with therapy and pain better when immersed in a calm, cold virtual world. The game "Snow World" lets players hit targets with snowballs in a winter wonderland. The results of the study shows unarguably that victims handle treatment and healing much better when their mind, eyes & ears are occupied--mind over matter indeed."
