Thank You everyone for the compliments and suggestions. I will post more pics when everything is 100%. Any more ideas are very welcome. The red lights are the next edition to the room. Thanks for the idea t0yrobo, it fits perfectly.

my only suggestions are this....

1. find a good way to organize your controllers. it looking like you have shelf space next to your chairs. or make new shelves for them.
2. eliminate randomness and and any non gaming clutter.
3. maybe find some black panels to hide the cables on the right going from the ps3, gamecube, systems.
4. some things on the wall would be nice. game posters, drinking posters, sexy ladies, or something... i do like the wall paint though.
5. mini fridge? any game room would be proud to have one i think....


6. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! and maybe make a list of all of your games. it looks like it would be a good one!

The steel Battalion setup rocks!

Nice shelving too. Is it well supported? I hope there's some reinforcement there so it doesn't bow over time.

Very nice setup. I am wondering the approximate dimensions of your game room. It looks like you packed an extraordinary amount of stuff into a relatively small space.

Its pretty small, and the walls angle in from the roof line which sucks. I guess its maybe 11'x8' give or take. It feels very up close and personal when playing games and watching movies on the 42'' LCD though. And yeah, I have way to much shit.

I got the DC Dev Box from a friend that works in the video game industry. And I'm waiting for all the hardware to come in so I can interface it with my PC. It seems to work but needs some settings ajusted that can't be done unless hooked to a PC. I'm going to have 2 DC Katanas for sale in the near future if anyones interested. Offer me a price as I don't know the exact worth of them. One of them has a broken GD Rom drive, but could be repaired by skilled hands I'm sure.

I don't think I could even guess how much it would be worth but I'll give you $50. . .
