Alright guys (and gals) lets see it. Lets see what you guys look at home when you are gaming. Since I don't have a high speed digital camera, I can't show you what I have just yet. But I took a picture of it a week or so ago, and when I get the photos back, you will see mine.

Caution: be afraid of what gekko shows, be very afraid!

Interestingly, I had my pics finally developed a week ago and some of them are from my room since I got bored and had pictures to waste. This is the closest one to what shows the "Gaming Area" of my room. Not the best, but the closest since the rest are just shots around my room.

Yeah, that is what happened to me (how did you know, I didn't tell anybody), I died! :sneaky: And now I'm back from it. Pretty scary place I tell you. :D

Jonbo where are you games? Are you just one of those people that have a system with no games... hmmm? Tell the truth!

If you look closely, to the left of my 'Cube are my DVD's(before X-mas...After X-mas It will be alot larger now) and to the right of my 'Cube is the games. I only had Animal Crossing and Resident Evil AT THAT TIME. I now have PSO to add to it.

If I get a digital camera, I will take my RPG collection... Infact, I'll take my whole gaming collection except my SNES and NES games since I don't have the box art for it.

There are 2 speakers actually, but yes the TV is hooked up to it. I usually have the Cube hooked up to the reciever as well, but as you can see I have the cube plugged into the jacks on the front of the TV. Too bad the reciever is old as hell, and dosent suppourt pro-logic 2 or anything.

Hmm mine is not as impressice as Gekko's but it'll do.

BTW our NES isn't set up because it doesn't work (:() and my brother's PS2 isn't in the pic cause it was hooked up to the TV downstairs. It should be left to the Cube.

Notice the 3 Zelda games next to eachother. The 2 NES ones are in the same box as the NES, and we keep the GB ones in a drawer with the GameBoys.

Oh yeah, bout those boxes you see: that's stuff that I have to move to my new chamber. :)

Angrist... not to bad. Not to bad at all. I wish I had that back in the day I lived with my parents. I was lucky to get a box that was shaped like a TV.

Don't even try to compare to what gekko has. Look on the bright side, soon he will have to give it all up and be yelled at by large men with funny hats. And yes, he signed up for that.

My set-up sort of goes into two rooms, and I don't have digital camera that could show it off...one room is for our new school systems (PSX, DC, N64, PS2, Gamecube, GBA) and one room is for old school (Colecovision, Sega Master System, Atari 2600, NES, SNES, Genesis, Sega CD...think that's it) Combined with all of those systems, we probably have...maybe 250-300 games, not really sure, most are for NES probably, they cheap.

I do :p

Well, the rise in HDTVs will result in the death of DVD players. Right now, DVHS has a better picture quality than DVD. But, within a few years, HD-DVD will hit the market, and each HD-DVD movie will be in 1080p. It probably won't become too popular for about 5 years, when 1080p TVs are more common and cheaper. At that time, no one will want to watch movies in cheesy 480p, and you'll see a lot of them re-released yet again on HD-DVD. Don't think HD-DVD will take off? Think again. The difference between 480p and 1080p is the difference between night and day. If I owned a 1080p TV, I wouldn't settle for anything less.

Give it 5 years, I garauntee you'll all regret starting your DVD collections.

And Crash, he meant Metroid Prime.

Hmm, you guys must have nice parents or a nice paycheck... either way you want to give me some money? ;)

I don't have a digital Camra, but my set-up is kinda small. (for now)

My Xbox and GCN are hooked up to a little 13" TV screen that is on my Computer desk next to my old crappy CPU... I only rent games for them so there isn't much of a mess.

My Ps2 is hooked up to my 20" flat screen TV. I have my keyboard milti-taps, and controllers all hooked up (god knows when I will clean that crap up)... and my games are neatly placed next to my Ps2 on this special vertical tower.

Our electricity is 220V, and since my NGC is American, it needs 110. That's a converter, so it gets the right voltage.
