    Home Theater/Game Room Thread

    Hey guys, so I was curious how you guys have your game systems/peripherals installed? A sunk cabinet into the wall would probably be pretty sweet, but right now I just have a standard bought at Walmart wood thing that holds my TV and has cubbies underneath it. But between games, Ps4, Switch, and...

    I think Xexx uses it every day. In my next place, I think I'm gonna go full-on recliner with a custom tabletop for mouse and keyboard and a 55 or 65 LG OLED, whatever version is out at the time. I absolutely no longer need to be at a desk to be comfortable and game.

    Del Taco has some amazing crinkle-cut fries for some reason. I love getting some burritos with some fries!

    Very interesting. My last playtime in VR was with the PSVR and I didn't like it that much. The screens were not great resolution and just wasn't feeling it. Looking forward to testing out the much better Quest 2 headset.

    Cashed in some "points" I can get at work for Amazon gift cards. Using them on the Quest 2. I'm curious how it works for games now in the VR universe. It wasn't that long ago I feel that every system had its own set of games. That's still the case, but most have "side loaders" now? Or every...

    She’s a VP of Nike. I’m gonna go out on a limb that her entitled dumb ass kid probably didn’t think he was doing anything wrong. I would feel like such a failed parent.

    Not even those. Thought about going back to EQ for Luclin, but really just have no interest so probably not that. Had a LAN party this past weekend and I played some Overwatch, HoTS, Left 4 Dead 2, Killing Floor 2, and some Pummel Party. I'm not playing anything at all recent and have no desire...

    It’s why I took a look at what games I’m playing right now and realized I don’t need to upgrade a single thing.

    BWW is only good on Tuesdays when you can do the buy one get one, so essentially half price. But if you get anything else off the menu you're fucked because it's so expensive.

    Another 2 devices and both showing over an hour, but haven't seen the first update yet, so maybe!

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    @Vorph My 8bitDo SN30 Pro+ is wigging out and I can't figure it out. At first it wouldn't stay connected to the Switch for longer than a few minutes. Would just drop BT connection. Then I plugged it into my computer and ran the firmware updater and that seemed to fix it. Now, it won't even turn...

    Holy shit. I'm glad to see that Harmonix is still around. I still have Rockband 4 in the closet and bring it out every once in a while to play on the PS4. Beat Saber of course is kicking their ass but it's still really cool.

    VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

    That's always been the thing with VR is the space requirements. I remember playing my buddies HTC Vive and he had the floor outline and it was really helpful. Move past that line and I'd kick the couch or something. As an entry point, I think I'm going to grab a Quest 2 and start with that...

    I mean, yea mining maxes your gpu out but if you have appropriate cooling I don’t feel it’s gonna kill your card.

    How long do you guys think the Quest 2 will be around before the Quest 3 is released? Probably a while, since the thing is less than a year old and they are still making improvements like 120hz?

    I don't chug, but usually less than a half-hour and it's gone. Every drink of it I take though is big and it burns so amazingly! I think that's why I like Fresca, and some other Diet drinks like Diet Pepsi Wild Cherry or Pepsi Zero Wild Cherry is because of the carbonation levels. The higher the...

    Or just drink it faster noob? I have a coworker that will drink a Rockstar all day. Half in the morning and sips on it the rest of the day to finish the other half. I don’t get it.

    That’s like the pizza I had last night from Lou Manaldi’s outta Chicago. Having a day long meeting next week over Teams and so the boss ordered everyone pizza from taste of Chicago since we can’t cater it and be in one spot in person. The pizza arrived frozen with dry ice. I admit it was...

    I've got an EVGA 1080Ti FTW3 as my main gaming rig setup and plan to upgrade sometime in the next year or so. Never gamed on it much, and was thinking about doing this. Would you say it's good passive side income even from a gaming PC?

    I'm right there with you. I had maybe a year ago? 2 years ago? the PSVR and I thought it was pretty cool, but like many have said just wasn't "quite" there yet. Now I'm reading about wireless capabilities, self-contained system, not needing PC connections, Steam support, side load games from...

    Typically what I hear is with newer hardware to push it, like the 30xx series GFX the sweet spot is 1440p 240hz 27". Not sure how many in that res is out there though.

    Far Cry 5

    Don't do any side quests, otherwise you'll miss some of the story. You get forced into certain story elements when your reputation in an area gets to certain points, and if you get to that point from side quests, you'll just skip right over other main story missions. At least that's how it was...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Selo's didn't leave much time for back farming, or farming of items wanted for clickies, simply because of the speed at which expansions were released. At least I assume so? Players that have been on Live for a long time might have everything they want but it could be exciting to be a guide or...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Won't another huge difference be the truebox requirements dropped? Live players can use MQ2 and box as many per computer as they want, right? Not to say that people don't already do that on Selo's, but it'd be a lot easier to do that?

    Have my accounts re-activated but I can’t decide between taking my Ranger or taking my 41 Warrior up to 60. I’ve got this pipe dream of tanking a bunch of EQ content which I’ve never done. I just worry that despite my newly freed up time I’m not hardcore enough to play a Warrior. Have to...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    Faceless was pretty nice but wasn't in there but a few weeks before I realized I wasn't going to like Selo's. I didn't want to truebox a full group, and as a solo player that was a hindrance. The cliques were well-formed by that time, and despite having an in into Frank's LMRF or whatever...

    I've been just selling the cards, but I've had the opportunity to buy more parts and build a whole system if I had wanted to. I think that a whole system would be harder to sell because you cut out the miners from buying your card. I don't know, it'd be super fun to just buy all the parts, and...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Get family members on board to share the cost. I pay for Disney+ and Amazon Prime and let everyone use it for fast shipping, etc. Then I get from other family members Netflix and Hulu.
