umm just give me your address and when no one will be home......;)

seriously though awesome

I only have one 57" TV and one rock band bundle

[Eastwood]

Why so many of everything?

P.S. Lend me a million dollars because apparently you have it.

[benums]

ya really, why 3 20" just for solo?

[admanimal]

I dunno...there are 4 360s, 4 RBs, and then 4 friends AND this kid. Sounds like this kid is a 5th wheel to me! I hope he's bringing more to the setup than some fast food burgers!

[chaoticprout]

Actually one of our friends whose not in the band felt left out so I invited him. And the 3 20" tvs are for when we finish world tour and wanna **** around on drums hahaha.

[MasterTick]

Take some pics, I really want to see this.

[HPLabonte]

yeah, me too, sounds cool

[admanimal]

Which of his 12 digital cameras should he use to take the picture? :D

[magicjames92]

in n out?!?!?! IM JEALOUS!! stupid east coast..

[jq715861]

That setup is terrible, and do you know why?


In N Out burger sucks. :p

[HMXJohnlok]

Wha - ??? wtb your setup!

[Apples]

For the next week until you get Rock Band, that setup is a pile of steaming dog diarrhea.

After that, you're golden man. :cool:

[chaoticprout]

Haha yeah, i'll definitely take pictures of it, I honestly can't wait. Hopefully Who's Next will be available on the 20th :cool: Any suggestions btw? (We're not super rich btw it's just 4 of us all getting the game each)

[Qweets]

how I wish I was that rich :( by myself I'll be playing on my 22" widescreen computer monitor via VGA cable, and with friends i'll ahve it hooked up to a 36" SD tv in the living room =\

[visualdeity]

I rate this setup OMGWTF/10.

[ZkDotNet]

I miss In 'n Out...

[KaYotiX]

I rate it a 0/10 (no pics) come on man anyone can say they have stuff.....show it!!
here is my set up for Rockband
52" Samsung. 7.1 Onkyo reciever and Boston Accustic Speakers..

Excuse me while I call bull**** on the OP. As for KaYotiX, nice setup, but in my own personal opinion (for what its worth) you could use a bigger stand. The TV is overpowering it. I have a similar stand, but with the 40" Samsung. Nice speakers too. I was thinking of getting Yamaha NS-555's to keep the whole glossy black thing going (stand, TV, PS3 etc).

thx for the responce
its a bad angle, i need to take a better pic. Were also in the process of buying a house so it will be wall mounted then. When you sit on the couch and look at it all, its perfect imo. love hd-tvs!

Here's a pic of my setup... no where as near as elaborate as anyone's, but I find rear projection TV's with their 0 latency to be superb for gaming. :D

The apartment I'm living in at school has the perfect living room for hanging my TV on the wall (a nice angled corner), but sadly there'd be hell to pay if I drill into the wall.

What's that Guitar Hero thing all the way on the right? Did you build a shrine?

[Patch_]

That setup would get a 10 from me, jesus H.

My setup is quite sweet though, 27 inch SDTV, A PS3 and some root beer, I'm set.

[mattitude]

By the way, OP, you're missing one thing from your checklist...

Where's the dang BOOZE?!

[jq715861]

A 23" HDTV and a PS3 is enough for me while I'm in college (becoming a teacher). Once I get out and actually get a real job, I'll invest in a bigger TV and maybe a sound system.

[scourge]

I have a key ingredient that trumps you all:

a smoke machine


That is a sweet setup you posted but are you really rocking out without smoke?

[King_Nuthin]

I do most of my gaming on a 37" Vizio but if 3 or 4 people are going to be playing at once I may have to move to something bigger... like the 120" screen in the next room :)

[jonfitzsimon]

I dont believe it either. Someone has nothing better to do.

[KaYotiX]

What's that Guitar Hero thing all the way on the right? Did you build a shrine?

LOL! no sir, its the gig bag that has my 2 guitars in it....i have ferrets and they love to chew on cords and wires.......i had to Loom pretty much my entire Home Theater to protect it from them LOL!!! It also makes it better to look at then 2 guitars just sitting out.

[chaoticprout]

How is it not believable? 3 of my friends and myself are buying the game, and each of us is bringing a tv and xbox to my friends house (who has the big screen)

[jq715861]

If you run all of that stuff at the same time it has to violate some law or code somewhere concerning safety. :D

Well for one you said it was ALL yours.........your topic does say "rate MY day 1 setup" does it not?

you should of said...."this is what me and 3 other friends are setting up on day 1"

[chaoticprout]

Sorry, i thought it was obvious that I wouldn't be buying 4 bundles hahaha, my bad

Well I had no idea that they made a 71" lcd, just seems too big to me lol.

[toefer]

They do, but its not one of those thin panel ones that can hang on a wall.

[vidwiz]

How about a 180 inch screen on a 1080p projector?

Certainly overkill, for this game at least.

But if you got it, flaunt it, ... right?

Sony makes a flatpanel lcd 70"...it's $32,000 of course though.

Anyway, this was a thread in the 'General' section months ago, my pic is in there. The link to it is here (page 3):

::hangs head in shame and caresses my once all powerful 60" SXRD:::

[l337r3cru17]

is that a 71" LCD? or is it a Plasma? I didn't know they made LCDs that large :D

[iNiGhTmAr3]

is that a 71" LCD? or is it a Plasma? I didn't know they made LCDs that large :D

No, it's a 180 inch projection TV. Meaning like a screen that comes down with a projector mounted on the ceiling.

Really nice though lol

[flatsinki]

Full Case of Alexander Keith's India Pale Ale in the Beer Fridge

You have good taste in beer :)

My setup:
55" Sony SXRD
6.1 Yamaha Receiver and speakers

I still need to pick up a Mic stand and some kind of drummer stool or some reasonable facsimile of one. Once I have those then I will be all set.

[WiredRacing]

That's the same beer in my beer fridge.

Yeah.. wow.. 180".. trumps my 106"... just how big IS that room?

Anyhow a stool for the drummer and mic stand is paramount IMO.

[HollywoodBound]

Anyone else here think it would be a good idea to have a thread posting for people to show pics or videos of their RB setup space and just see how much people are getting into it and prepared for it? I'm planning on doing a video over Thanksgiving weekend.

What do you think?

[iNiGhTmAr3]

There is already a thread about this lol...

people talking about their setups and some pictures of their setups too

No it sounds to me like this kid is rich and his friends come over to hang out with him because he has money and they know he will have all of this stuff and they can take advantage of the "Wow, you have Rock Band? Sure I'll be your friend. You know we should really hang out more often..." Plus why do you need 4 bundles? it's not like you can all play all instruments at the same time. The most you'd need is two for face off modes. There is no 4-way face off mode on any instrument. This guy is waisting his money.

[HollywoodBound]

I do most of my gaming on a 37" Vizio but if 3 or 4 people are going to be playing at once I may have to move to something bigger... like the 120" screen in the next room :)

Hahaha Vizio. That's funny.

[hankmallon]

Got plenty of room on my carpet floor between my couch and 46" 1080p LCD with 5.1 sound cranked up in my basement... W00T

[jq715861]

Hahaha Vizio. That's funny.

What's wrong with a Vizio? From what I've seen that brand is fully supported and endorsed by LaDainian Tomlinson. :D

[Eman311]

My good TV is school, so I'll be playing on like a 12" when I first get it........

BUT for the official "launch" party after thanksgiving break

30 something inch HDTV, and LOTS of beer.

And a stool for playing the drums, that's a necessity.

[hankmallon]

46" 1080p LCD
5.1 Digital Surround 800w
Xbox 360 / Live
Rock Band Bundle

and plenty of little luxuries, for me.

Yours on the other hand is ridiculously awesome.

[DoctorSpaghetti]

how I wish I was that rich :( by myself I'll be playing on my 22" widescreen computer monitor via VGA cable, and with friends i'll ahve it hooked up to a 36" SD tv in the living room =\

Won't that cause latency issues?

[chaoticprout]

Sorry guys I'm going to have to take back my post, we still might be doing the above plan, but probably not. We found 2 copies of the bundle at a local blockbuster, and are 6 hours into the world tour. Game of the year hands down, love you harmonix <3

Are you the same person who posted about getting RB at blockbuster on Cheapassgamer? What state do you live in?

[chaoticprout]

No I'm actually someone different, but chances are he bought it at the same blockbuster, since the one I got it at thought that the reason everyone went there to buy it was because best buy was charging 200 for it, hahaha. The game is seriously great, I'm about 2/3 through world tour as far as I know, probably less actually.

[Qweets]

Won't that cause latency issues?

No I play normally on my LCD monitor with the official MS xbox360 vga cables, my monitor has 2 inputs so I switch the source over to analog or digital and I can flip between my 360 and PC, no lag at all. Used to play GH2 all the time never had to calibrate it.

[Cvette54]

Well, I've got:

42 in HITACHI plasma
SONY 350 Watt 5.1 system w/ sub
Yuengling
Jagermeister
Irish Car Bombs

Not a bad setup, but the real reason I would want to come over is the drink selection that you would be offering during play :)

[Supergeek]

65" Mitsu RPHDTV
Yamaha receiver, Polk R30's
Big roomy living room to rock out in.
Sorry, no pics yet...

[blgage]

47 inch panasonic 1080i HD CRT

Or

Or

32 inch Vizio 720p LCD HDTV
virtual surround (stereo)

Or (currently busted :()

103 inch 1080i projector
~1000 watts THX 5.1 surround

Or (worst case scenario)

10 inch color CRT SDTV

Ill prolly use the first hookup since my 360 is hooked up to it in the back and its in a cabinet.
I also gots xbox live gold, hddvd drive, xbox live vision, and w00t! Wireless headset. Pics coming when i get home from school.

[CENACHAINGANG54]

Hey man sounds cool. I am going to be rocking with a 57" Big Screen HD TV. Yamaha 6.1 digital surrond sound, and one Rock Band Bundle. Guess I could use my other Xbox and my 27' LCD HD TV that is in my room, but no need as I have one bundle and if everyone can't play and mess around on drums in the living room, then I guess they won't be playing!
