I never said it wasn't wrong, but since the creation of the vcr people have been recording their favorite shows and movies, and yes that was wrong too.

So wrong indeed that TV guides published codes so you could program your VCR much easier... This wouldn't skip the commercials for you, but there's that one button, tempting you...

Crappy photo of my basement setup.

Bose cubes (shut your hole Onix, the room is tiny)
Pioneer VX74 HDMI receiver
Samsung L-series 32 inch LCD
Some Blu Ray Player
HD DVD drive and Dune HD DVD YEAH!
360 Elite
Halo edition controller and headset
oh look, Halo Epsilon on the screen.

 

[RiskyChris]

It isn't free to see HP5. It IS free (and legal) to watch Heroes, and to record it and remove the commercials. In my opinion, getting hung up over whether someone records it themselves is moronic at best.

LOL recorded it, not he.

Edit: I'll put up a picture of my temp setup to make up for a few post's worth of only text. Give me a few hours.

 

[tHa_vIlLaMaN]

So i should get rid of my video tapes of some of my old shows like exo-squad? I never said it wasn't wrong, but since the creation of the vcr people have been recording their favorite shows and movies, and yes that was wrong too. I do not share the show and i will delete it when i buy the dvd set. wow. can we not get off topic now.

Doh! Now its so painfully obvious how bad your cable management is.

 

[GuessWho]

I need to get a much cleaner more organized picture.

Where do you live? I have a chilling impression that we live in the same apartment complex...

 

[Maverick]

 

[MechDX]

WHOA!!! I had almost the same exact set up before I moved last year.

PS3, 360, SAME DVD player, same Motorola DVR cable box, and the same Ikea TV stand. Only difference was the reciever but mine was also silver.:lol

TVs are totally different though.

Minor update since the last post.

Doesn't it hurt your neck trying to look up at that wall mounted tv?

 

[Maverick]

Yeah, that Ikea stand is great. Got it on sale for like $80 on clearance.

The DVD player has been good until now, but recently it has been overheating and starting to pause DVDs for a few seconds.

 

[alterno69]

There's mine

 

[neojubei]

There's mine

omg that is huge. nice set up man. Looks like a lot of people here have Samsung TVs.

 

[cvxfreak]

Since people seem to love the CV Dreamcast, here's a closer pic of it. Note that it's signed by Mikami and Kato (CV's director).

 

[Solideliquid]

I have a love/hate relationship with my 30" widescreen Samsung. I love the TV but it makes this awful buzzing noise after about 20 minutes of being on. I had it repaired, they claimed the problem was a transistor that was vibrating. The solution was to put silicon around the transistor and that worked for a month but now....Grrr.




BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. : /

 

[alterno69]

omg that is huge. nice set up man. Looks like a lot of people here have Samsung TVs.

It's only 50" but it's almost too big for my room.

Here's the other side of the room btw.

Sweet. I need to find a comfortable chair to sit on when i watch my tv.

 

[alterno69]

I love that couch, so comfortable, it works as a nice bed too.

 

[Kewk]

That is a pretty cool couch. Do you know the name of it? Does it have a matching 2 seater?

Sorry i have no idea plus i live in Mexico so i can't tell you where to find it either

 

[vantastic]

And I think obtaining said shows from illegal sources like neojubei obviously does/did crosses this thin line clearly.

please, just stop already. you're making this a much bigger deal than it is with your holier-than-thou attitude. get that crap out of here.

 

[vantastic]

Oh I already have Heroes season 1 pre-ordered at Amazon. Too bad it is not on blu-ray or I will buy it.

The TV.

The entertainment center.

The actual TV: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...+HDTV&lp=7&type=product&cp=1&id=1169512521340

I'm using component cables for my PS2 and Wii, HDMI for my Xbox 360 Elite, and a fiber optic cable for my surround sound receiver.

 

[Kadey]

Kadey you should get an arcade machine, that's all I see missing from your wonderful collection

Not sure if you're into that tho...

I need to update my pics... I have a crazy arcade stick collection that's taking up most of the space in my house....

I actually have three of them.

 

[Kadey]

Doesn't it hurt your neck trying to look up at that wall mounted tv?

It's further back than you think. It looks all cramped up just so I can get it all in one picture.

 

[DuckRacer]

The PS2 silm is American and the FAT ps2 is Japanese. And why are you having a cow about this?

Don't be hatin'! I'm just curious.

 

[InfectedZero]

HORRIBLE Pic I know. But its not an online image .
32" Vizio I bought today. Its fucking sexy. Never really been around HD much other then at my friends house a few times. Now having it mere feet away from me is dazzling.

 

[neojubei]

Don't be hatin'! I'm just curious.

Sorry, just on edge with people making something out of nothing.

Did you take apart a standard guitar stand to make the wall mount for your guitar hero guitars?

 

[RiskyChris]

Those look like simple tool mount Y screws.

 

[Kewk]

Those look like simple tool mount Y screws.

Ah, yeah I think you are right. Pretty sure I have seen that type before. At first I thought I saw the base of a standard guitar stand.

Kind of how it felt when i got my hdtv, though the kid is dorky in the video with the gloves.

That makes me want to buy a new TV. Alas, it will have to wait until I move out of the fraternity. I don't want my set succumbing to beer-related damages The Critic-style.

 

[Maverick]

You live in Pittsburgh?

I'm sorry.

Pittsburgh is a great town to grow up in, honestly. Living here in your mid-late twenties is a different story. I've only stayed because I go to college here.

Minor update since the last post.

The more I look at your setup, the more I see stuff I've previously owned. I had that same desk 7 years ago when I was in UC Irvine. That thing was awesome. Ever think about getting those corner room desks from Ikea?

Yeah, so that was... yeah... that was lame. I just can't feel getting that excited over a Samsung LCD. I have one at work and it is acceptable it's not amazing. For a bedroom TV it is acceptable but for a living room TV I just can't feel it.

/edit I definitely do not want to discount this cats experience. I can admit that I am very jaded on HDTV's based on what I have and what my friends have. He could have upgraded from a 13" crt for all I know and if he did he was very calm in his expression of how much he loved his upgrade.

 

[NekoFever]

wheres 360video9?

The 360 isn't such a shit about which video it'll play.

I have a love/hate relationship with my 30" widescreen Samsung. I love the TV but it makes this awful buzzing noise after about 20 minutes of being on.

Mine does the same thing, but I can only hear it from certain angles. Weirdness...

 

[neojubei]

The 360 isn't such a shit about which video it'll play.

so the 360 will play any video?

 

[bill0527]

My mid-range gaming PC that I built in June:
Sceptre 22" X22WG Widescreen Monitor
C2D e6420 2.13ghz
2 GB Corsair RAM
EVGA Geforce 8600gts
Vista Home Premium

Samsung 720p DLP for the 360 and PS3:

The Blu-Ray Movies I've gathered so far:

And finally, the Wii gets the old Sony 27" CRT Wega. I don't have the Wii hooked up right now because we just did some rearranging.

 

[alr1ght]

where did you get that media rack on the right?

 

[Kadey]

It's been a couple years since I had this PC desk. Back since CRTs were still standard even. It has endured a lot of beatings and endless nights. I actually am planning to upgrade to some all glass setup since last year even but never got the chance or even though of mind to do so. Corner desks are a no no for me. I don't like them at all.

 

[FoxhoundNL]

Syncmaster 226BW
Logitech X-230 2.1
PS3 & PC hooked up

and in case anyone's wondering:

To say it's not the best setup in here would be an understatement, but I'm happy with it .

 

[Groovy Ninja]

Paprika is on blu ray hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Where did u pick that up?

Nice Setup BTW real classy
