Do you have a proper game room?

Mine is pretty boring. Just my beautiful 4k OLED tv, my ps5, Switch, and the good ol couch. But eventually I want a proper game room.

What about you, GD? Do you have a proper game room?

Not really. Don't have the space for a dedicated room just to play video games. Though do try and make the most with what I have to work with.

Never upgraded to a 4K television either. Never saw the need honestly. 50 LED Samsung 1080p.

PlayStation 5, custom P.C. (built more for work than gaming honestly), Switch (dock in my kitchen area), and 3DS (snugged next to my bed)

The only system I truly miss owning is the regular DS because I enjoyed using it for Game Boy Advance games.

Oh and I'm a headphones kind of person. Technica ATH-M40X, I use them for everything mentioned above, lol.

Nope. Don't really have the need for one at the moment because I'm primarily playing on the Switch and occasionally the 3DS. Portable all the way. :P

Dude, once you go 4K, you won't go back. Especially with these new consoles. You'll notice a huge difference!

Have been around 4K televisions but not enough time to compare it to a regular HD television, wasn't personally blown away but that could be because I never got an idea of the quality differences. I'll take your advice to consideration, looking into a 4K set-up in future.

My next big gaming investment will be to upgrade my custom P.C. once again. I got it to run Baldur's Gate III for Early Access at High, for the most part. But considering the specs are not final for the finished product I want to put a little more into my rig. I'm not one of those people that try and target 120+ FPS or 4K/ Max, but I do want my P.C. to run the games I want to play at High 60 at least.

No. We have an X1X in the living room connected to my LGCX, which has also doubled up as an office for the last year since I've been working from home. My daughter has a XSS hooked up to a 4K cheapo Samsung TV in her room.

Living room is a decent size though so I have plenty of room to move around when playing the Quest 2.

I have a 4KTV but that's just for future use and I'm not personally chasing 4K myself and the same goes for gaming PC as I'm totally happy staying with 1440p/144hz for many years to come.

Trust me, you really aren't missing much in 4K...but for me, going with HDR has ping my interest but that's another story.

Yup. When I bought my house one of my bullet points was to have an extra room to make into my "Man Cave" dedicated to my game collection, PC set up, and statues and collectibles. I finished the lighting and gaming art for the walls last year. My playstation is in the living room hooked up to my 60" but I bought a Steam Link years ago and I can link it up to the TV if I'm ever in the living room and want to play my PC.

Objection! God of War and Horizon Zero Dawn look pretty sweet on my 4K OLED. 😎

To be fair those games look "pretty sweet" on HD televisions. Technical marvels for sure. Played both with wavering degrees of disappointment and amazement. I've had my fill chatting about both those games at anycase.

Thanks for your take too @davillain. We seem to have the same mind-set regarding 4K. I too agree best thing to do with a P.C. build, is upgrade up to what one personally wants from the set-up. And not chase after buzzwords that leave much to be desired outside bragging rights. My goal is solely keeping up with Baldur's Gate III; as I want it to run well when the game is all done.

I totally forgot to answer this thread. No I don't have a mancave like gaming room and I see no reason why I need such a thing. My PS4 sits in the living room and my main gaming PC sits in the master room along with my Switch as well.

To each their own. Yes, both games are pretty, but God of War PS5 upgrade on a nice 4k OLED is very nice.

I kinda have a gaming room, it's my guest room that has a smaller chaise lounge couch, a small desk for a really old gaming laptop (pretty much just use it for workout DVDs while I'm watching Netflix) and most of my consoles minus my 360 and Switch. I'll try and find or get a pic of it soon, been going through my apartment and all the closets, reorganizing and getting rid of stuff, so it's kind of a mess right now :D

Yes, and I'll post some pictures. My office doubles as a sim cockpit area as my main seat is an Obutto R3volution with flight and driving mounts that I can attach when I want to play. My main basement area is a powered recliner facing a 100" projection screen with a 4k HDR projector and there's a 4k HDR TV to the left of the couch. The stereo receiver can put any of the sources to any combination of screens (i.e. office PC games on projector and Netflix on the TV, Xbox to projector and PS5 to tv so both kids can game at the same time, PS5 back into the main monitor in my office for HDR1000 visuals, etc).

I only got like a double room for now. The rest of the house is occupied. So I need to use my PC for Work and Games and other stuff. I also play on my bed with my Android.

This is far from a proper gaming room. I expect much more of life. And we are working on the house.

I’m sure to have a game room/man cave will take plenty of cash to make it properly,at least as far as I would think? I live in an apartment and I go from pay to pay. I have a “82” screen Samsung 4K tv, but it’s in my living room,not in a man cave or anything like it.

Not really, just a basic desk with my TV and a shelf with my consoles underneath it.

Nope. Primary system hooked up in my living room and a couple older systems hooked up in the bedroom. The extra room in the house went to my comic collection.

No. I just use the tv in the basement to play on my switch and xbox one. I keep my switch in my room in it's case when I am not using it and my xbox one next to my tv. My room is like a 5 second walk from my basement tv since I live downstairs currently.

Way to leave us hanging 😉😆

Yes, we live in an old farmhouse and the downstairs is divided between the kitchen/dinning room (this is normally where you enter the house), bathroom immediately to the left when entering, large living room and behind the living room is a smaller room that I use as my game room. I think most old farmhouse are set up like this. The one I grew up in as a kid was also set up like this, and the rear room was my brothers and I toy/game room.

I'll post pictures at some point, but it's way to cluttered right now as I need to build more shelving. Currently have have two Tv set ups, one for retro gaming with 12 consoles hooked up to a 32 inch Sony SDTV and a modern setup with 3 consoles hooked up to a Sony 47 inch HDTV.

Both are an absolute mess right now. Let me see if I can fix that today. I spent last night adding an h150i cooler to my main PC and testing overclock settings and that took up most of my evening.

I have a studio apartment and my whole place is a game room, lol

Nah I just take over the TV in the front room for 4 hours while my husband is working in his room. We're flexible and he sneaks down to watch me play when he get's bored. When I'm done I work..

Still working on cleaning but here are some old pics.

No, not at the moment.

Would be nice though, I'd set it up into a nice VR den. Wire it up so the headset cables come from the middle of the ceiling. Put a desk in there with my HOTAS setup, too.

@Byshop: thanks for sharing. It's an inspiration to us who want that game room some day 🙂

@SolidGame_basic: <Laughs and cries in tiny apartment where bedroom is also the living room, Office room, workout room, dinning room, guest room, bar area, kitchen, and hallway>

Yes, I technically have two since I prefer to have access to so many consoles without having to change connections and all that jazz. One is more PC centric and the other is mostly consoles new and old.

Is this thread just an excuse for everyone to brag about their tech?
