The plastic in consoles doesn't decompose eh? Good, that means I'll be able to keep them for a LONG time.
The plastic doesn't decom...
"If every copy of CoD was digital..."
Yeah, but how much electricity would be needed to run servers constantly to allow users to download the copy? What if it requires full time always on DRM like Diablo III?
Good god, TRY BETTER JOURNALISTS.
Why aren't they complaining on how much plastic is used to make collectible toy items? And please... 20,000 cars off the road. The crud would go toward gas and other plastics. Nintendo wouldn't be recycling EVERY CONSOLE MADE. Majority of those sales are KEPT by fans. 20+ year old NES systems are still in use around the world... for god sake these people. Oh, and journalist. If our game system is going into a compost pile. Someone else is failing at their job.
I notice they spent a lot of time singling out Nintendo.
I wonder what the figures would be for Sony and MS.
I'm glad I chose to go download-only (mainly) come Wii U launch then
Yes, lets use less crude oil so we keep depending on it for everything. No. Lets make it cost too much so alternatives are adopted for things as simple as cars, then we won't have issues making plastic discs.. pfff
@ZS
Electricity can be generated by renewable sources and servers nowadays are extremely energy efficient. To keep servers online for 30 years would still be a fraction of the cost to manufacture retail copies.
Good try though.
I'm a biologist. These pseudoscience analyses are what is screwing up the environmental movement. I personally predict that it is "better" for the environment, but they're making claims that would take several large research projects to determine.
and now compare that to how much oil per each car and wow video games would just be a small segment of that. 0____o
I'm sure all the original XBOXes are half of the 6 billion pounds.
THANK YOU. Additionally this is a good example of bad statistics.
- Putting billions and millions on two sides of the scales
- not mentioning time frames
- more games than people (what does it mean? more titles than people, amount of discs, including downloaded copies???)
... and it goes on
