For the love of god don't quote this post...

I'd like to direct you here. Also, awesome room!

 

[Chittagong]

Fuck me, I have serious projector envy now. That looks absolutely stunning. Now where will I find the extra room....?

 

[11redder]

nvm

 

[drugstore_cowboy]

If that's a dedicated HT/gaming room paint the walls and ceiling with dark matte paint, it'll really improve contrast.

Epic, epic, epic. Bravo, sir! One day, when I own a house...

 

[CousinLump]

Hi5 for projector setups!

Hi5 for projector setups in Michigan!

Love what you did here. Eventually, when we get a new house, I will make a dedicated theater room. Good lookin' stuff, sir.

 

[vitacola]

@Allforce:
Awesome!
Where did you get those BTTF posters?

I contemplated this but the wife veto'd haha.

Ohio actually, but I grew up in MI so that's where my sports loyalties lie.

It was a Mondo release last spring.

Apologies in advance if this post is gonna be absurdly long. I can shorten it if needed. Please for the love of God don't quote the entire thing.

My current set-up. Some things have changed, most noticably the retro-corner, which is something I've been wanting to do for a long time. Lack of space is definitely an issue, so it's a bit cramped, but the upside is it's damn cosy being surrounded by nostalgia.

I've also very recently gotten a new TV (Samsung 46ES8000 for those interested) which is a real step up from my last one. The game on the screen at the moment is Anna btw, a pretty decent little first-person horror adventure that was just released.

The next thing I'm gonna be changing is some furniture, specifically the little table with the Link on Epona statue, those 2 Ikea looking square things and the white one with all the figures on top. Those need to be classed up.

I love it. The Pikmin & vines are my favorite part. Perfect lighting in the room too. Not too bright, not too dark.

 

[Caelus]

That RoboCop poster....

...is so damn beautiful. Where did you get that?

 

[Iacobellis]

Hey glad I could help! They're honestly the best basshead headphones I've listened too, and you got a good deal for 50 man And since the XL2420t is an upgrade of the 2410t, which I love, you definately won't be disappointed with your purchase. And though I don't use mine for 3D, the one your getting is supposed to be alot brighter with its lightboost if you plan on using the 3D feature.

Thanks for the support man!

No problem!

 

[Mattlikewhoa]

Hi5 for projector setups!

Very nice setup my man! I think I had seen this over on another forum?

Anyways, I love seeing more and more projector setups!

 

[MrCookiepants]

I'm incredibly jelly of all of you, but at the same time glad that I'm not as big a nerd as I could be. Not even close.

Alright, so I'll never own them
Thank you though.

A Michigan fan in Ohio. You, sir, are a brave soul. God speed.

That Yoda basket for holding remotes is amazing.

 

[Hato-kun]

I've moved houses and lost my consoles so I only game on my Vita and laptop

 

[SillyEskimo]

That Yoda basket for holding remotes is amazing.

But why does he need extra remotes when he has a Logitech?

How did you lose them?

 

[Allforce]

I honestly couldn't think of anything else to put in there. That and sometimes I do actually need one of them to screw with some setting I forgot to program into the Harmony

So, the same reason I also have extra remotes despite owning a Harmony

Wait, so you have 2 floors of a house all to yourself paid for by allowance? From your parents?

I wish my parents still paid for my stuff

 

[Crizume]

Just a heads up, you might want to abide by thread rules or you probably won't be around for that long. Rules are rules ya know.

And use complete spelling when posting, I don't think abbreviating words like 'You' to 'U' is allowed either.

Hmmm. Well looking at the thread rules...


Oh wait there is none. Not in this OP, and not in any of the previous 6 years thread.

Also, how each spells and writes on the internet is to their own liking. All professors specify not to start sentences with conjunctions but that didn't prevent you from doing it.

Jesus Christ, I'm probably half your age older and I have nowhere near a setup like that. I don't even have my own place. :/

Fuck me, I need to step my shit up.

Seriously. I'm fucking depressed

Not the thread rules, but the forum rules in general. That long document you agreed to before signing up? Yeah, that.

AND, I don't know how long it's been since you've taken an English/grammar class, but today using conjunctions at the beginning of a sentence is deemed grammatically acceptable.

So chill out, I wasn't trying to be an asshole, just letting you know before the mods do.

Hahaha I don't blame you

Take in account that here you live really fucking good with an average salary of 30k post tax. And well I still live with the folks but hey I wouldn't move out for shit. Got own bathroom too. Can bring chicks in without problems and have a maid. (in house maid for a months runs around at 250 usd) if you don't have any problems with having sort of crappy Internet Lima is a pretty great city to live.

Wasn't there a thread about posting your actual entire house or something? I remember there being a thread similar to that, anyone got a link to it?

I think you're thinking of the NeoGAF Cribs thread, but there isn't a thread for this year.

 

[Asparagus]

Nice. You got the Dirt Devil and Tefal TV stand! I'm so jelly. D=

Spoiler

I'm not making fun I'm just try'n to get an "lol" out of ya. =P

EDIT: Oops. Could of sworn I was editing my post. =l

They're holding steady

I really need to get round to buying a proper TV stand though >.<

 

[HammerOfThor]

I think you're thinking of the NeoGAF Cribs thread, but there isn't a thread for this year.

But I think there is a thread called Post Pics of your Crib....or something like that floating around that has been updated this year.

It's glorious, Evo.

 

[Like the hat?]

does anyone know the measurements of those Zelda posters from Club nintendo? I want to get frames.

edit: maybe I should post this in the CN thread...

 

[out0v0rder]

Lets give it up for physical media! Making houses less boring looking since 1984.

A Google search tells me they're 16 5/8" x 28 3/4", which sounds about right, as I had to trim some of the sides of the poster off to fit the History of Link poster into a standard frame.

 

[CodeEvo]

It's glorious, Evo.

Thanks mate!

Let's get this topic to the next page to get some people posting again!

 

[PureSolidness]

I've always been interested in the evolution of peoples setups throughout the years so I've made a quick collage pic of the changes in mine from 2008-2012, technology really does advance fast

1st post These setup threads were the reason I joined!
Here's my setup, built for work first, gaming secondary, I did a full renovation 6months ago.

Videos:
Short setup vid:

Pictures: I'll start in chronological order:
2008: Poor-college-student setup :S

Summer 2011: Before renovation. I used to work in this trainwreck...

Mid-reno process:

Sept/Oct 2011:
Immediately post-reno, something doesn't look right, such a tiny desk.

Trip to Ikea to get some supplies...

Desk done, now looks funny with just 2 monitors

Added a BenQ XL2410t (farthest right monitor):

2012: Got an Aeron, best 1000$ investment I've made, highly recommend

Damn, it's crazy seeing how recently people still had CRT monitors. How could you keep the same wallpaper for a year now?

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

Took a couple quick pics for another forum, and figured I'd post them here, too. Not a whole lot has changed. Still have all the last-gen and older stuff in storage right now. Looking to possibly replace the iMac with a Retina MacBook Pro if the 13" ever materializes. And lastly, I'd love to switch the TV with a 3D model; but it's not in the cards right now.

Need more shelves, too... Desperately. Just got no place to put 'em!
