Playing GTA games has caused me to become a better driver. Now when I hit a cop car, I know now not to stop and get out of the car, or else the guy will bust me. Instead, I should hit the gas and drive away as fast as I can until I ride out that 1-star wanted level.
It's also improved my marriage. Now when my wife says something, I reply with "That's real interesting, go on." instead of just "Mhmm.".
