WoW: Go Big Or Go Home
Now a lot of people have seen various computer gaming setups but I would say one of the coolest for gaming has to be what my buddy Chris has; an Epson LCD Projector (not sure of the model) with a screen size that is almost unlimited. Well it seems that way!
As a recent birthday present to himself (yes it was his Birthday yesterday) and was given the opportunity to purchase a fancy Epson projector for mere pennies of the retail price! What is one of the first things he does with it? That’s right! He loads up World of Warcraft and takes it for a test spin on his new big screen (or should I say wall?).
Now if you have ever played World of Warcraft (WoW) one thing that I have personally found is that the bigger the screen the better the gaming experience, though this is usually true for all other video games too. It is a little hard to judge the size of the items on the screen so we got Chris to actually model himself in front of the screen.
Yes Chris decided to go change his shirt to ‘become one’ with the World of Warcraft. He was also able to put his character in the palm of his hand! How interactive is that?
Now I didn’t get to see movies being played but I have never seen Chris so giddy before so I will take it from his expressions and jumping around like a schoolgirl that the movie experience and TV experience is just simply too hard to express in words!
Chris, Happy 26th Birthday! Just remember, there is an outside world… yes outside from the WoW as well!
ZOMG – sorry, the sight of such an inspiration has left me speechless. If only I could convince my girlfriend how getting and LCD projector would simply make our life all that much better (at least my in-game life experience).
Think of the room it could save
A nice pull down screen (perhaps motorized from the ceiling?) as opposed to having to find a TV that will fit the dimensions of the room and then furniture to go with it?
I know, I know! Unfortunately my girlfriend doesn’t agree on the pricetag, regardless of the space it would free up.
Yowza! That’s a ‘uge screen! Very nice…
