The PS2 is down to the left under the telly, and the DS and PSP are in front of the PS2 - thats the 360's HD-DVD drive to the right, and the 360 is off to the right out of shot on a seperate table. The folders in the middle have all my games in, the one on the left is for my 360 games and the one on the right is for my PS2 games.

PC in background for media center based fun, cable box, PS2, Cube (on its side currently oops), 360, speaker for right channel of amplifier (connected to TV for when the small speakers just aren't loud enough) and cat, he's called Jin. (yeah after the Tekken character)

Nice set up's everyone.

Will post mine later.

Btw does any1 know how to compress the picture cuz the picture size will be really high!!!!!!!

Mark
24 Nov 06, 14:48
can do it in paint, or just upload it to imageshack and put the link here, image shack resizes them anyway to fit onscreen

Dragon2611
24 Nov 06, 15:05
www.getpaint.net Better than the paint that comes with windows, has resize options.etc

Its fairly easy to use as well.

Mark
24 Nov 06, 15:21
paint has resize options aswell you can only do by % though

24 Nov 06, 15:32
I posted mine in another thread but here it is again. To the right of the TV is my computer desk with my Alienware laptop for gaming. But you see my High Def DVR Cable Box, Xbox 360, PS3, PS2 all in this pic. I should have put my PSP and DS in the pic as well :P

cain
24 Nov 06, 15:33
Nice, the PS3 looks a similar size to the Xbox in that picture, i thought it was considerably bigger.

ehandlr
24 Nov 06, 15:35
Its bigger then the 360 by all aspects. Especially wide and thick. The length isn't so much different...an inch or two. However they weigh very similar including the power brick.

Need to update the pics soon....
thats not the monitor i use anymore, if you go up a directory theres some pics of the monitor i replaced that one with

Used to play the 360 on the tv but its crap compared to the monitor.

Im going to modfy that desk so i have a pullout keyboard tray, just hevent got around to getting it sorted yet!

yep but least i don't have to share with my brother anymore :up: (I live with my mates, it's their dads house however he doesn't actually live here. I used to live with my parents till a couple of months ago but i got fed-up with sharing a room with my brother.)

And that tv is going on the wall... whenever my mates dad gets around to doing it i think he's gonna sort out a keyboard tray on me desk as well, he's good at that stuff and im terrible at it.

besides i wouldn't want to go drilling holes in his walls ;)

Jim
24 Nov 06, 18:19
lol sounds sweet Dragon, Johnno your room is alright size from what u posted

The floor prob isnt the best place for a 360, might get a load of dust and stuff in and overheat.

You got the same TV as me.... Crap for gaming isn't it.


Btw get the VGA cable and either use the monitor or the VGA port on the tv, won't help with the crapness on dark scenes but the higher resolution makes the picture sharper....

If you got the vga cable you could just use the pc screen it might give you a better pic.

lilninja
25 Nov 06, 07:31
Yeah that's what i've been thinking and the tv will be cool for the pc cos the screen is quite big.

bradas
25 Nov 06, 08:05
Woah, everyone has so sexy TV's!
I have an ok one downstairs but upstairs is like a 20 year old black, square 23" TV... lol....

When the renting deal ends on the one downstairs (not HDTV just Plasma :hehe: ) i can have that in my room and link 360 up to it through VGA...

Dragon2611
25 Nov 06, 08:06
Yeah that's what i've been thinking and the tv will be cool for the pc cos the screen is quite big.


i wouldnt be so sure, it tells the pc it can do a resolution that it cant and you get a nice out of range message on the screen :rolleyes:

it would probably make an OK pc screen as long as you dont wanna play any games...

lilninja
25 Nov 06, 09:08

Now if only it was decent reliablity wise :rolleyes:

The setup in my bedroom isn't even worth posting a pic of, here's whats in it:

21" CRT standard definition TV, :o
PlayStation 2,
Gamecube.

Not exactly impressive is it? :( When I manage to get more money though I will buy me a nice LCD HDTV to enjoy playing PS3 on (when I manage to nab one of them too). :D

Oh and I have a PSP but that doesn't count as part of a "gaming setup" does it?

55" Mitsubishi...GC, Xbox, PS2, and 360 via a Joytech HD swithbox into the DTV input...it's the only 1080i input on that TV. I've had this TV for almost 7 years now, but it's still going strong.

I'll be upgrading the TV in the next couple of months for some 1080p action, though.

actually, now that I think about it, I got this TV in December of '00, so it's about to have its 6th Birthday, not 7th. HD TVs have been around longer than that, although there wasn't much programming available, and progressive scan DVD players were in their infancy as well. We've come a LONG way, baby! :smoke:

Is it rear projection madDdog?

Yes. I've gotten very used to it, so much so that I dont' really like the looks of DLPs, LCD or Plasma...which is bad for me when it comes time to upgrade in a couple of months.
