ames get a lot of stick for being time
wasters; the tool of the procrastinator, the
ally of the couch potato, the only friend of
the anti-social. So critics be gone, this article is here
to show that gaming is for the sensible-minded,
the ones trying to save a little cash, and improve
their lives!
1: The Electricity Efficiency
“But gaming uses electric, idiot!”, I hear you say.
Why yes it does, my quick-to-the-mark friend. Let’s
take a step back though, and look at the big picture.
When you’re playing a game, sure you have maybe
a console and a screen on, or your PC, but what
about everything else? You’re so engrossed in the
game, you don’t bother turning any of the lights on
around the house, more than happy to sit in the
economical darkness. And what about washing?
Who has time for laundry, or dishes when you’re
busy in game-land? Instant savings right there!
Plus, you don’t need to shower when you’re only
sat in the one room, the only room you need
to heat. No need to heat excess water then; yet
another money-saver.
