Computer games makes you smarter. Why, for example... playing RTS(real time strategy) games makes you think strategically and sometimes RTS needs resource management thinking. Other types of games including RTS games also makes you think faster. US military uses games to their soldiers to simulate a scenario of a situation in battle or operation. Simulation games also help some newbie driver and newbie pilot.

Yes. Because games open your mind and increase your imagination. It is the same like art but like any other thing what is to much is bad.

Generally, playing games make you smarter. Different games improve different skills. FPS is great for improving hand-eye coordination. RTS helps your resource-planning skills very well. Puzzle games improve your logic side. Actually, you can view your whole life as a game too. That would be interesting.
