I guess this proves that even "less-evolved" brains can play video games - this can't say much for those that boast in their thumb skills. Check out this video of a chimp playing a first person shooter (Far Cry 2). Now I love this, highly underrated, first person shooter game series, but now that I see even a monkey can do it I feel a little less compelled to enjoy it.
I don't know what this means for the future of monkeys and/or video games but here is a thought: If monkeys can be trained to shoot virtual guns what's to stop a country from training monkeys to use real guns and forming a monkey military? Should World War III come, it could end up looking a lot like a scene from Planet of the Apes.
