My little gaming room

Andybtsn · 6 Apr 2009 at 14:57

I think this sums up the world nicely when I scrap my gym equipment in my spare bedroom for a gaming setup

Basically one of my spare bedrooms was used as a place for storing my home gym equipment, in the winter I used it quite reguarly but once summer hits I play football 5 times a week and it just doesn't get the time, so I feel it a waste of a room, so I decided I would use the room for gaming purposes.

The plan was to move the two 360's and the two 26" TV's the wife and I use from our other spare room into the little room, get a reclining sofa, PC desk, mini fridge in there etc etc.

There's still a few things to do, but here it is 85% complete.

Things that will be coming in:

Shelving unit where the fridge is located
Sky HD coming from the lounge downtairs
Wired internet connection rather than wireless
Tidying up of extension leads. More electrical points (You won't see any wires like you see in the piccys)
Canvas will be located above TV's (awaiting this)
A few other various pictures
Clock, bin etc etc

Here are some crap pictures anyway, we're really happy with it!

Hope you like, cost us quite a bit but I think we've done a lot with a very small amount of space.

Oh and yes it's as dusty as hell

Everything in there just attracts dust!

Looks good

Would love to have my own gaming room when i'm older

Love the TV unit Andy, as you say though, glass is a total dust magnet, just be glad its 360's and not Ps3's under there or it would be much worse!

You really do have the worlds best wife, a hot gamer, kinda hard combo to beat

Brothel.

Nah, looks great. :cool:

Robert1986 · 6 Apr 2009 at 15:50

Why the hell do you have two 360s?

sell the two tvs and get a bigger tv or a projecter. It looks dumb having two tvs like that.

with an attitude like that it's easy to see why you only need one of everything

Read my thread? I play on one 360, my wife the other, it would be pretty dumb doing what you just said

Did you think I took it in turns playing on one 360, looking at a different tv every other day?!

Robert1986 · 6 Apr 2009 at 16:19

Still looks dumb. I'd sell the two tvs and invest in a big tv or a 100+ inch projecter and fill that wall up. Also, get some speakers.

No, it's practical, I have a 42" TV downstairs in the lounge if I want anything bigger, it's perfect what we need it for. So it may look "dumb" to you, but it's bloody perfect for us so calm yourself down.

All thats missing is a picture of ronaldo on the wall. Manu red everywhere!

Only in friends have I ever noticed people painting the doors the same colours as the walls

Is it irritating playing the same game with two lots of sound coming from the TV's?
