My PC room is to far from the living room for me to connect the PC to my projector. I do have a small lenovo ideacentre minidesktop in my living room though. Its basically a remote reciever for XBMC (kodi) from the PC in my PC room and for light browsing on the projector screen. 

Haha at the steam sales, if there is one thing I like about PC gaming its that.


I got around that... By "streaming" my PC over my network.

Think of remote play, but in every single room of your home at the same time, when my sister brings her kids over, they go balastic and they access my Steam full Library from $100 "Dumb Clients". (Better than letting them use my thousands of dollars worth of hardware.)

Yh I know about that. Basically doing the same thing for my media. But me and PC gaming just don't sit too well. As I said I can't just dissociate the feeling of it being a workstation. Its so bad that even for my mediacentre, I went to the trouble of using a remote control so i never actually have to use a keyboard or mouse to navigate Kodi. 

I don't agree that PC boxes look cooler than console boxes though. Then again its probably a preference thing. I like everything minimalistic. Which is why for my Rig I use an alluminium Lian Li case. Hate seeing wires and can't wrap my head around why some PC gamers insist on having a windowed case to show off their hardware lol. I personally think the PS4 is a beautiful peice of kit. They should have put the USB ports at the back of the box though.
