Green Videogames

posted 4 January 2006, Wednesday

Starting in July the European Union will be forcing all electronic devices sold to be enviornmentally friendly. This will force companies around the world to also adopt the greener standards since few if any companies are going to waste time and money producing two different versions of their products. Naturally videogames will come under the scope of these changes and we may see cleaner, greener videogame hardware on store shelves.

I'm not sure how the transition will be handled, but we may even see changes to current hardware already on store shelves. I'm not sure what goes into hardware like the Xbox 360 or the PSP, but future production versions may be adopting these new standards in order to be a part of the european market.
