I am bored out of my mind & winter is not even here yet!! Was think'n bout get'n 1 of those X box or playstation thingies! I have seen they have like atv & jet ski driving games! Know noth'n bout these machines. Any recommendations??? R they fun??????? Help!! Thanx!
 
I'm buying a PS3 this Sat. As Clay mentioned it also is a BD player. Reviews I've read say it's better than the stand alone BD players, plus you get the other features.

Walmart is having a in store special this Sat. Still pay the normal $399 for the unit, but you get a $100 gift card. Get there earlier, limited numbers and sale starts at 8am.
 
Now that we are on the subject I want to ask you all a question.
I support a young boy that has just now got over a 3 year battle with cancer.
He's not at the point because of his immune system being weak that he can play outside too much.

I'm going to build him a room that has all 3 games permanently connected , tv ,dvd and kareoke all set up and running through a projector onto a 100 inch screen.

Has anyone on this board built or have had built a Home Theatre in their home?

You need to talk to Audiofn. He is the KING of home theater, will tell you anything you need to know....and maybe a little you didn't :biggrinjester:

The rule at my friends house is what you break while playing wii you just bought:moon:
 
How about drilling more and posting less

I am broke so you need to make double the money over the winter and send it to me so i can live the Tracy life :)

Nope never done it :26::26:

If you want some help with it let me know. I can make suggestions on componenets and projectors.... May even have some stuff around or could get customers to donate their "old" equipment. What I would need is a budget that you are working with.

nine seven eight-nine eight five-zero six three nine is my cell number. Call me any time.

Looks like I will be at Walmart tomorrow morning! Sony PlayStation 3 80GB Console @ Walmart
 
Don't fool yourself thinking that the PS is the same as a stand alone Blue Ray. First of al they run HOT HOT HOT. Second they have loud fans. Third the picture is not as good and they have some sync issues with some TV's. Other then that they are the same :D

Dude, I am bored cuz the office is slow, partly anyway! Wish there was more drill'n but remember that post U made about Michigan in the dumper & my office on the out-skirts of "FLINT"!!!!! Need I say more!!! :(
I might post less if I get me 1 of these machines!!!!!!!!!:biggrinjester:
 
Thanx all 4 the input, both informative & AZZ whoop'n!!!! Look'n like the PS3 IF THERE R ANY LEFT AFTER U KIDDIES PICK THEM OVER!!!!!!!!
 
If I remember right wasn't there a guy over on OSO that was going to make a offshore game? Been a couple of years ago. Did it ever happen?
 
I have an Xbox 360 and honestly the only game that gets played often is Rockband when everybody gets hammered drunk. Good times!

Thanks Jon

I'll post the names of the different components I think I'm buying and ask for your advice.
Some of my questions will be about the actual construction of the room also.

Thank you very much for offering to keep me in the right direction.

Be back with the list tomorrow
