Title: Updated Pics of  games room(rather large)
Post by: thx1138 on June 18, 2004, 06:05:59 AM
Started just now, I bought a second hand bookcase for £10. The guy in the second hand bookshop was a bit suprised when I told him that it was for video games.

Carried it home, about  1kilometre.

I continue with my policy of "if I don't already have it I keep it"  after my sell-off in January.

I have 102 PS1 games, 132 megadrive and genesis games, about 12 3D0 games. Haven't got any further yet, I shall post some new pictures when I am done.

All the furntiure etc is stuff that has cost me next to nothing, or in many cases been salvaged for free, so nothing really matches, for instance a small coffee table becomes a monitor stand, as does an upturned drawer from a cabinet, and old laundry box becomes a printer stand, and my PC games go inside the box , so it all looks a bit odd, but I'm happy with it. :)

Sounds pretty nice, man.  I'm jealous.  All of my stuff remains in boxes and cabinets, and will remain there for the forseeable future.  I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures when it's all completed.

I myself plan on getting a bunch of shite set up in my game room this weekend, including finally getting something to keep all of my systems on.  Now I just need another TV to keep in there.

Cool cool beans.  And I believe Laurel is setting up some more stuff in her game room.  She was working on more shelves yesterday or the day before.

Ok guys, here ya go. As you can see I'm still in the process of putting things where they belong and my game room is quite a mess. Oh.. In that space between the black shelves and the wall I'mma either put a cd rack or have something to that effect built ;)

very nice. :)

I have about as much suff, but my collection will remain fragmented for some time, the PS1 bookcase I have is just too tattyy to go into the games room and must remain upstairs for now.

I also have " a box of stuff that I want " - every time I sort a room out, or tidy up, the same bits and pieces end up in a big box. A "I must sort the stuff in this box out box" - and it never does get sorted, it just evolves into more stuff, and spills over into mess again. So, I tidy it all up, and at the end I am left with a small box of stuff that I will find a home for later.

I might just put it in the bin. But. if I do that, I am bound to need some of it in a few weeks time. It's a worry is my "box of stuff" :(

Take the time to give your box of stuff a real home, it's totally worth it!
