Gaming Goes Green

Filed under: Green

Going green is all the rage and it's seeping into everything -- even into the casino gaming industry! EGM Green is now offering what they tout as the first ever 100% eco-friendly line of casino gaming products. The main attraction is their line of gaming tables (like the poker table shown above) plus they also make seating for tables and slot machines and luxury lounge furniture. Everything for indulging your hobby and getting the complete casino experience, whether in your home or business.

Speaking of that, does anybody know of any eco-friendly/LEED certified casinos?

Elite Home Theater Seating Batman Cave Theater

From the same folks who brought us the Cuddle Couch home theater seat comes the Batman "Bat Cave" themed theater. I've highlighted a Batman-themed theater before which was custom done for a client. This one comes from Elite Home Theater Seating and is designed to be the ultimate place for both viewing movies and gaming. Elite Home Theater Seating specializes in custom seats which can be customized with a variety of different layouts. This theater reportedly cost $500,000 for the layout and seating alone, the equipment will cost you even more.

Diamond Encrusted Playstation Controller

Rich gamers want bling too, you know, and they only want to play with the very best of gaming equipment. So both of those statements might be true (I admit I don't really know) but I doubt either of them refers to bling or equipment like this diamond encrusted Sony Playstation controller. Made up of solid 18k white gold and over 68ct in black diamonds it's actually a pendant meant to be worn on a chain.

Yes, because that makes it all better.

No word on how much this little beauty is worth -- the owner claims it was a gift.

While we're not really into gaming here at Luxist, we do like our games to be glam, if at all possible. At the Colette boutique in Paris, Christofle is offering five solid-silver, limited edition faceplates for the X-Box 360. Only five will be released in the whole world, so if you want one you will have to snag it as soon as possible when they are released later this year. Each one is priced at around €1000 ($1,260 US).

Trump Plans A Mississippi Casino

It looks like the latest Trump adventure will be another casino. Trump Entertainment has signed a letter of intent with Diamondhead Casino Corp. for a joint venture to create a casino resort in Diamondhead, Mississippi. Before Hurricane Katrina, casinos could only built on water but a new law allows them to be built on land within 800 feet of certain bodies of water. This resort would be built on land owned by Mississippi Gaming Corporation. The desirable property fronts Interstate 10 and the Bay of St. Louis.

We've come across a lot of crystal-covered gadgets in our time but this may be the most stunning. The case was created to celebrate the Lara Croft game on Xbox 360. The Microsoft office in Germany is behind this masterpiece which contains 43,000 crystals. The case is worth about $11,000 and will be given away to a lucky gamer in Germany.

Nethrone

The guys over at Uncrate sourced this gaming chair called the Nethrone. The keyboard, headrest, and display can all be adjusted for maximum comfort and it has a massage seat. The Nethrone was designed by Eran Baruhe and will be on sale as of January 30 for $2500. I'm not sure if I'd be comfortable with a monitor looming over me like that but I hope the Engadget guys check it out at CES.
