    Vintage Console Games

    I found this today and thought I would share it with everyone here. Seem The Internet Archive has launched The Living Room Console site. You can play vintage console games emulated through your browser.

     

    Here is where it is at https://archive.org/details/consolelivingroom

     

    Here is a story I read about it http://betanews.com/2013/12/27/play-vintage-console-games-in-your-browser-courtesy-of-the-internet-archive/

    I try out the ColecoVision and it works very well. Kinda of cool if you ask me.

    New Gaming Consoles Cost More To Run

    Found this very interesting. Seems the new consoles use way more power than their predecessors.

     

    It’s probably no surprise to hear that the newly released PlayStation 4 and Xbox One both consume a lot of power, despite touting a number of new energy-saving features. According to the NRDC’s (Natural Resources Defense Council) Center for Energy Efficiency, the higher performance and always-on features result in the consoles using up to three times as much energy per year as their predecessors.

    Video game consoles in the United States are projected to use more electricity annually than all the households in Houston, America’s fourth-largest city, but it’s not just playing games, or watching movies that’s using power (and draining your bank account in the process). Much of the Xbox One's operating costs come from the console waiting for you to speak to it.

    NRDC measured the power required by each console during:

    1. Active game play
    2. Streaming a movie
    3. When the menu screen is selected (Navigation mode)
    4. When the console is in connected standby or completely turned off

    This resulted in some interesting findings.

    The Xbox One uses around 40 percent more power to play a game than the Xbox 360, and the PS4 consumes almost twice as much as the PS3. In all of the active modes, the PS4 requires more power than the Xbox One, but Microsoft’s console uses twice as much power as the PS4 when in "Instant On" (connected standby) mode.

    The NRDC found the Xbox One uses more energy per year than the PS4 overall, with almost half of the Xbox One’s annual electricity usage resulting from the "always listening" feature. In waiting for you to walk into the room and say "Xbox on" the console is consuming more electricity annually than a 50-inch TV.

    Watched Ghost Hunter is was really good. Lots of action and scarey moments. Highly recommend. Here is some info on it.

    Also watched We Without Wings. Thought it was ok. Though the being in a different universe thing was different and of course lots of panty shots in this one. Not my thing but still I guess the Japanese love it...lol

    Seems it works really nicely on mobiles with large screens and pens, like Galaxy Notes. Not sure about input precision but it's not been reported to be problematic.
