Nice setup mate! I wish I had as much space as you do, then my basement setup wouldn't look nearly as crowded as it does . . =(
Good setup! I see you have an 8300 Explorer Settop Box... Like it? I am in no way responsible for it... but my company is.
Also... where the hell is the retro stuff?!?

Nice! I like your couch; I wish mine was as long and had a proper ending to it like yours, lol.
I've been a member for a long time now (a year? two years? How old is Destructoid now?) and I have yet to post my setup. Now that my homeless friend is no longer homeless and sharing my living space, perhaps I'll take some pictures and share my setup with the world. :D

Whoa I need a copy/paste of your bachelor pad including the gaming setup and couch. You can keep the table though.
Teach your girlfriend to play games. she'll appreciate the setting even more ;)

@Craineum: Right now all of my retro stuff (NES, SNES, etc.) is packed away in the coat closet to make room for some other stuff. It sucks I know. I wish I had more room for it all. :-(
Nice setup, small but very neat and clean ;p Looks like you have a lot of fun there ;p don't let her change it :|
Kick ass set up, Silver. Definitely pretty drool worthy.
I'm being quite daft at the moment, but what is it that is displaying the Heavenly Sword wallpaper? I can't figure it out and it's bothering me, haha.

@Thunderheartxi: While most of the civilized world didn't enjoy Heavenly Sword, I really did. I also happen to love that wallpaper which is why I picked it for the picks. I'm weird I know.
Look at you and your mansion.
Just to compare to what I've got:
I have to hook my 360 up through a VCR on my TV.

#randombullesys: Holy shit you still have a VCR? Man I remember how I used to have to connect all of my video game systems through my VCR. Those were the days ... you know back in the 90's.
@Silver
Sorry, I didn't really phrase the question clearly. I was wondering more about what system/electronic device/whatever you were using to display the picture (I think Heavenly Sword wallpapers are really nice, but I'm weird. I haven't had a chance to play the game yet, though.). I thought it might have been a computer at first, but I don't think it is. I'm not familiar enough with a PS3 to know if it was that either.

@Brainderailment: I will admit that a good sound system pretty much makes all the difference in the world. I typically play all my games with the volume turned up quite a bit. I used to have a bass turned up really loud as well, but after getting the cops called on me by the neighbors I decided it was best to turn the bass volume way down. :-(
I've got that Yamaha setup in the living room and it's awesome. It makes such a difference to games to have such an immersive sound system.
mine's about the same only i have a 52" Sharp Aquos LCD

I've been here off and on for...wow, I don't even know how long I've been here. It's been at least 2 or 3 years. But I can't show my digs because 1. they're not really MY digs (I still live with my parents; I'm only 19!), 2. they're not that impressive, and 3. I don't have a digital camera. So, yeah. I will fail myself for not being awesome!
If she makes you ditch the TV (probably to get a bigger one :P) I'll find a good home for your plasma.
Very nice setup. I also love your shelves! Glass doors is a brilliant idea. Easy to keep clean and dust free.
