See above for old set up...
New set up (still doing a few things, changing curtains, etc.)
(EDIT)
Sucks how washed out the picture looks. It actually looks great.
And we flipped the room around, putting shelving adn stuff in the built ins.
Console area now pictured:
Yes, that is the ugliest carpet in the history of the world (which I'm tearing out this weekend. Time for wood flooring!) Yes, it is so ugly we put a rug on top of carpet. And yes, I try for the minimalist look but my wife shoves a thousand little knick-knacks on every surface she can, so my mantle is full of bowling trophies, stuffed animals and other bullshit.
Sorry the pic is so grainy. The lighting in that room could use some work.
Finally moved to a slightly bigger place as promised a few weeks ago! Still small but an excellent place to game on my PS3 and watch my indian movies. All ready for my forthcoming Vita and I've finally got an arcade stick arriving in time for Under Defeat!
Watching a movie!
Crappy space but I have excellent views each day:
My basement is finally (almost) done, been working on it on and off for over five years.
Now heading down the stairs to the basement
Rick Nash Fathead and one of the banners that hung on the exterior of Nationwide Arena during the first (and only) playoff appearance
360, Gamecube, N64, Dreamcast, PS2, system selector
Closet - games, movies, controllers, bongos, backup Dreamcast, etc.
Puck pillows
Hockey stick lamp
Bar sink and mini fridge
Signature-collecting jersey, sign from first ever game, and poster matted with my playoff ticket stubs
First game pictures
This room took forever since I had no idea how to finish a basement and had to learn along the way. I've been collecting this stuff since before the Jackets played a single game.
And yeah, I already know the team sucks, so please don't remind me.
I know, I know.
My wife won't let me
I may build something black around the screen, however. Long and thin bookshelf-type thing.
TV next to the desk is connected to a separate PC that acts as a MythTV frontend (Basically allows me to watch TV from any computer). I have a nice set of headphones on the side for whenever I actually want nice sound. Getting a new desk is quickly becoming a priority, I've had this thing a while, and I'm past liking a keyboard drawer.PC Setup said:
Can also see where my HDMI cable goes through the wall to my living room there on the right. This mainly stores/records TV. It's a bit of a mess, but its stuck away in a closet with the door closed most of the time.MythTV Server said:
Don't do a ton of stuff on this computer, but it's fairly nice, so I use it to do video processing and such. It's currently ripping The Wire.Production Computer said:
Definitely need something to hide the wires behind the entertainment center. Can also see that I've gotten my office PC hooked up here. At this point I play more PC games on the couch than in an office chair. Also have a USB extension cable that's connected to a hub with a 360 controller dongle and a wireless keyboard/mouse to control the computer.Gaming Setup said:
Behind the chair SHOULD be a kitchen table.. but I don't own a kitchen table. Oh well. Also ignore the "painting" on the mantle. That's something of a family joke.LIving Room Opposite Direction said:
I've probably read far more than gamed the past few years. Most everything in that bookshelf has been read since around 2008. Been on a fantasy kick a 'lil bit.Books said:
Pretty sparse collection, but I've mainly been a PC gamer this gen.Current Gen Games said:
People like that is the reason I started using the GAF image resizer script. I didn't know his image was huge until you posted.
My living room is now done! The house is still kinda of a wreck from all the construction, so ignore the kitchen mess in the background. I just couldn't wait to take pics.
Old and busted:

Comfy couch and lazy dog:
