PC Gaming vs Console Gaming

That's a great hybrid setup. When I started working and still lived on my own in student housing, I had a 19" monitor on my desk on one side, tv on the other, and the wall behind it painted white for a second hand CRT projector. Also with USB extension cables to sit on my bed to play on the projector. (it was a very small apartment) The disadvantage of growing up, pc and tv/entertainement in different rooms. More so since pc became work.
It was 4 concrete walls so sound options were a bit limited (subwoofer wavelengths didn't even fit between the walls) Not that that stopped me from shaking the room up. I wasn't a very good neighbour lol. Yet I lived directly under the runway of the biggest airport, it wasn't exactly a quiet zone. A lerge cargo plane working hard to take off during the right movie, now that's surround sound!

Yeah, I hear ya about growing up.  This is my basement setup, though.  We do have a larger TV upstairs on the main floor. And I will sometimes carry the Wii U up and down the stairs, depending on where we want to game.  I've been given all the freedom I need to transform this basement space into my nerd den.  The adjacent room has a board gaming table I built as well.  Just a nice little place I can nerd out and relax.

It's a work in progress though.  I'll likely replace the shitty couch with a recliner or two.  And maybe replace the ikea shelves with some that I make myself.
