How to free up that tele for gaming?

Soulja · 29 Oct 2008 at 17:15

i have one 360 in main room when mrs doesn't mind me hogging t.v for a bit and one in my p.c room. I'm not selfish enough to want t.v all the time and cry when she says no.

sick as in cool or disgusting? Anyway there is an upside of the tv and that is it has a earphone slot

Playing footsie with your xbox is a bit odd if you ask me.

Lol eyyaz you legend, having your tv and xbox actually in the bed is fantastic! I dont have a big telly, just use my computer monitor

Not directly, but you could connect headphones another way depending on the connection you use.

Nope, you'd have to bodge the wiring for the audio plugs or get some sort of amp/stereo to wire it into first.

Or, plug your xbox into the telly which normally has a headphone socket.

My solution is to have two TVs in my front room. Girlfriend gets the 'crappy' 32 inch TV for normal telly and I get the bigger one for gaming. Sorted.

Why three 360's :confused:

You sleep in the same bed as your tv, that can't be safe.

i use my 360 connected to a 19" WS monitor in my lounge, and my mrs uses her 360 connected to the 32" tv. She watches soaps then sometimes we play CoD4 together on each.

God I wish I could get my other half into games like COD4. The best I have managed yet is a little GH3 and Tiger Woods golf

Big plasma in the living room with 360 and PS3 for gaming. Or, if my GF is in there watching TV, I go and chill out on the bed, which has a 32" LCD and 360 right AT THE END OF THE BED, RESULT!!!

So, to answer your question, I go to bed

Going to bed with yourself is always win win

Do you live with your mrs, if not, then DON'T if you want to ever be allowed to use your own tv, that you purchased

Unfortunately, I do live with her, and have done for nearly two years.

At times, it is great. The majority of the time, it sucks!

ewww, why would you want to live with a girl..they have cooties

Have an e-hug, I know the feeling buddy

Women have a knack of bringing up anything slightly wrong we have done in our whole relationship and using it to try to win arguments or dictate rules. Then she told me that if I ever use the fact that I spent blah blah on a kuro and kit and that I want to be able to use it then she will go mad.

Have given up on this and got my balls backinflated and have told her that she can go and watch friends or low bitrate crap in the bedroom where we have freeview etc on a 21incher, and although she always uses 'It's my living room aswell' when she comes in from work (thus I must watch whatever repeated crap she wants likea good soldier :rolleyes:

), I have also started to put me foot down.

Then sooner men start to treat their other halfs like the women they are, then the sooner they might to respect us. They want all the attention, money spent on them, most your free time dictated by them, you to cook, wash up and clean, BUT never do anything themselves. When you ask, they go bonkers and bring up said **** up from months ago like I said before. Then there is the sex card, best way to play this is not to care, then eventually they will want it again or might start to realise that they are directly responsible for increasing you perving and willingness to chat to other girls.

Honestly bee heaven the last few days with her being away, I think I'm healthier for it.

I'm in a really ranty mood today, haven't a clue why :confused:

Thats the *only* one she likes though, she has a quick dabble on CoD5 and played CoD3 split screen multiplayer, but nothing else. Might get CoD2 as I'm hoping she'll like that too.
