In there you will learn that "Attention Deficit Disorder" is an unfortunate misnomer, and that part of the disorder is very strong focus on things that are sufficiently stimulating. They mention that a better name would be something like "Attention Inconsistency Disorder".

That is precisely why this solution won't help most children sufficiently. The games are already over stimulating and therefore they have no trouble concentrating. A couple of years ago I worked with some guys based out of NC, http://www.playattention.com/, that were doing the same EEG bio-feedback but not using off the shelf video games. Instead we made some very simple 2D games similiar to pong (but with color). They didn't use a controller to play the game, instead the feedback from the EEG device made the game progress positively or negatively. They did have to interact with the game once every 2-5 seconds with the spacebar, to make sure they were focusing on the game and not something else, but mostly the game was driven by their focus. The games were slow, but that was the point. When a kid is sitting in math or english class, there aren't lots of flashes and loud sounds and they don't get to control "where they go" as you might in a video game. They have to sit in their chairs and pay attention to something that may be totally boring. This is where ADD (or as the parent states AID) really hurts these kids (and adults). Using flashy video games just perpetuates the problem that they are at least partially responsible for creating.
