Video games activate the brain’s reward circuits but do so much more in men than in women, according to a new study. Researchers hooked men and women up to functional MRI machines while the participants played a video game designed for the study.

I wonder if a video game could be designed that would have the opposite effect; women would feel more compelled by the rewards system in place versus men.
