If your one of those people who plays a game and then leaves their console running, or just leaves it on so people can see you online, then you need to stop. the NRDC did a study that found America could save $1 billion a year if everyone just turned off their consoles when they were done playing. Of course their estimate was based on the assumption that half of us leave our consoles on 24/7, which might not be that far fetched. Anyways, they say the $1bil we would be saving could power all of San Diego for a full year (and i'm not just making this up because I live here.) The PS3 is the worst of it at a 150 watts, the 360 is 119 watts, and the Wii (which i don't understand why it's part of this study really.) is 16 watts. So, turn that bad boy off when your done.
p.s. Don't date robots!!!
