The PSU TV/Monitor Thread

[Sha Sha]

Sorta taken from this thread Click (http://www.pso-world.com/viewtopic.php?topic=148774&forum=20&22)
when Yunfa posted a pic of their T.V others started to post pictures of theirs as well. It got me thinking how's everyone else set up like?

So PSOW Whats Your PSU set up like?
how Big or small is your TV or Monitor?
Is everything in one room or all separated?

My Set up?
PSU on PS2 on a 12" tv (altho i dont sure if it IS a 12" could be smaller) Its in my closet 6 ft off the floor. The shelf it is on could be used as a bed under it is the hanger racks and whatnot My VCR and Cable box are too the left in the picture (where the orange glow is coming from) Under it is my computer *so yes im always looking upward towards the TV* My dresser is to my left and my PS2 sits on top of it. I got a 100Ft ethernet cord to the Router sometimes ill move to my bed which is right behind my computer chair. I have played PSO and PSU on this TV since 2004

I need to get a digital camera since my old one is broken, but I basically play PSU in my living room on a leather sofa, with an Xbox 360 connected to a 40" Samsung LCD 720p HDTV with audio from a 2.1 THX certified Klipsch sound system.

[Yunfa]

Lol i guess my TV intrigued more people than my acual topic, o wellz.

- You dont mind that tiny TV? And plus its so high in ur closet, XP

[Sha Sha]

I guess I dont mind the small TV.
however it seems that when my friend adam gets a nice HDTV for his b-day this next week his mom said i get one of his old TVS xD
but im use to the smallest of it

I wish i had better sound Parns set up sounds awesome <3

[RedX]

A 17" CRT

[XanGabriel]

20" HDTV Flat Screen. myeh. XD

[Lady-S]

24" LCD, but that tv is kinda high up guy...

[HaydenX]

24" Samsung flat-screen CRT with built in speakers for sound.

On a 360.

[Umberger]

42" Samsung plasma/flat-screen HDTV at 720p with 5.1 surround sound (I don't usually turn surround sound on for PSU though).

[Zer0_ConvoY]

I like to have my choices, I'm looking into getting a pair of ATI HD crossfire cards, one being an all in wonder card, so I can watch tv on my monitor, but until then, I dual output from my current video card to my 17" monitor and 32" LCD HDTV, if I feel like going hi res I play on my monitor, otherwise I go full screen on my HDTV(its only 720p, but hell it was only $600) I have both positioned so I can easily see them from my futon, I really hope AOI introduces HD and widescreen resolutions *crosses fingers* Sound wise I have a creative labs 7.1 surround sound card and speaker setup, eventually when I finally move my furniture around I'll set them up properly instead of having them all sitting in a pile http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif I'd show pics but I smashed in the screen on my cellphone...

[Aralia]

19" Philips T.V.
Decent enough for now.

Later I'll be rockin PSU on my High clarity LCD monitor. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
That's a 15" right up in my face more or less, meaning it's about the same size, perspectively, as my T.V.

[DurakkenX]

let's see... i have a Dell 15" LCD flatscreen monitor that O play PSU on that I like, but if I want to I can clon my screen onto either of my 2 TV just behind it, one being a VIORE 20" LCD EDTV (450p) sitting on a RCA 5.1 surround sound stereo / 5disc DVD player combo and that is to the left of a 24" RCA SDTV... I also can play it from my PS2 or PC on all three at once or both separately...AND could play the 360 demo 2/3 http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

and if there was a program that did it I would also have the stats show up on my logitech g15 keyboard LCD display...unfortunately there isn't one...

[TheLOLBandit]

once i get batteries ill post a pic of mine

ill do that tomorrow

[Foxix]

[gundam0079]

my ps2 is hooked up to a 36" HDTV and my laptop is a 15 inch moniter

[Sekani]

37-inch Vizio LCD HDTV at 720p. It's set up in my bedroom, on top of the dresser.

[ACH]

It's a 21" CRT monitor that I got for free a long time ago that I now have hooked up to my PC as a secondary monitor. It's perfect for games that you can play with a gamepad. Now I can sit in my sofa instead of the computer chair. With the PS2-pad it's just like playing the PS2-version but with way better image quality, higher resolution, twice the fps and half the loading times. It's also my Dreamcast monitor, that keyboard up on the monitor has been used a lot in PSO.

[Sinue_v2]

I have everything integrated. PS2, HD CableBox, Xbox, NGC, all connected to my nVision N6 VGA adapter. The Dreamcast, X360, and the PC are both connected seperately with VGA cables via a switch to a 20" CRT monitor. Sound goes through a 5.1 100w Altec Lansing PC surround sound system. Once I get a HDTV w/ VGA input, I plan to move the whole setup in the livingroom. But for now, only the Genesis, Master System, and N64 is out there on my crappy 28" CRT SDTV.

[Tekershee]

http://psutopia.com/uploadr/view/262

Took this a while ago. PSU on one monitor, #psu on the other!

[Sinue_v2]

http://blog.scifi.com/tech/pics/Radius_320.jpg

I've resisted the leap from CRT to LCD because I still believe CRT to be the better technology - however, if I can find one of these for an affordable price, I might just have to change my mind a bit.

[360NyTeMaRe]

I play on Xbox 360. Normally I play on a 26" Samsung TV (or the 22" JVC in my room), but at the time being, I'm using a 28" Magnavox widescreen HDTV.

[360NyTeMaRe]

I have S-Video and VGA output though, so I'm thinking of using my computer's monitor just to see what it looks like, and if I like it, I keep it that way. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

And your all proud of this? It wouldnt surprize me if all of you have had etleast one siezure. Personally, I would die sitting infront of 2 big ass monitors all day.

[Pietepiet]

http://student-kmt.hku.nl/~paul2/plaatjes/psu_setup.jpg

Picture is crappy, 'cause I only have my phone to take pictures with http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif It looks way too bright on this picture, too. I can assure that it's not THAT bright http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Anyway, it's a BenQ 17" flatscreen, along with a wired XBox 360 pad hooked up to the PC because PSU's keyboard controls suck.

I run PSU on windowed mode so I can multitask it with MSN and various other programs, before anyone asks why it isn't fullscreen http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c264/Nejikun834/MiksTV.jpg

Same pic as the one in the last thread of course. Was taken with a webcam so the picture quality sucks. I'll see if I can get a better one next time.

Anyway, in case you can't tell, this is a Sony Wega 42" LCD rear projection tv capable of displaying 1080i. I don't have any kick ass sound system to back it up though but I can cope with that. <_<

Also, I would've taken the pic further away but my room's kinda small and my webcam cord connected to my PC could only stretch so far anyway. Ghetto photography ftw. xD

[Tulio07]

I use a 20" sdtv. I connect my ps2 to the internet by connecting it to my computer and sharing it's wireless connection.

[mrlion]

Jakomay_07, how much did that TV cost ya?

[radical_ryan]

i think some thing like 20k

[Mikura]

Three-fifty. <.<

[BanF]

My setup:

SONY WEGA 29" flatscreen, some three feet off the floor. the 360 is connected to it with the component (R,G,B L,R cable, while the original Xbox, the Wii and my Pioneer DVD player all share the usual (Video, L,R) jacks. The setup is at the end of the living room, with enough room and couches for four players, though it's a bit cramped for four Wii players. No surround sound system to speak of, I might get one by christmas.

PSU looks really nice in fullscreen, but I always run it in windowed mode so I can do other stuff at the same time.

[MrPOW]

My girlfriend and I just bought a 30" Samsung Slimfit CRT about a month ago. It displays up to 1080i. At about half the price of an LCD or Plasma of equal size and better picture quality I have no idea why CRTs are getting harder and harder to find. I guess people just like the idea of a flat panel. The only drawback is that it weights about 125 lbs., but its easy for 2 people to lift and it's not like I move it around every week. Our old television was only 19" and we haven't decided on a new TV stand yet so it looks kind of funny on the old one, lol:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/digita1alchemy/psu1.jpg



But anyway, the picture quality is amazing. I originally got my 360 just to play PSU, but now that I have an HDTV my poor Wii just doesn't get as much play time as it used to (that will most definately change starting in August).

[eightball]

i use either my 26" samsung lcd with sony dreamsystem..or play in my living room on a 50 " plasma panasonic tv with no surround, the no surround doesn't really bother me for this game..haha

[Jaspaller]

Right now I run my 360 on my 32" TV using S-vid. Had my old xbox running on my 65" HDTV CRT... until PSO left burn in -_-; lol, but the 360 looked pretty damn nice when I ran it through there. Eventually I'm going to replace the 32" I have right now and put in a 32"+ LCD TV.

[Anduril]

Here's my set up. I've had this TV since about 1992 but it still runs well, and the picture quality is decent, though nowhere close to an HD display. The speakers kind of suck but I have a cheap little 5 speaker stereo system hooked up to it so I get decent sound.

*chuckles* haha The Bose® Lifestyle® 48 Series is a $4000 surround system, possibly the BEST speakers for the TV.

Bose speakers give you Walmart performance for Rodeo Drive prices. If you've got that much cash to blow on a surround system, try listening to one from Harmon-Kardan, Klipsch, Infinity, or JBL. If after that you still think Bose speakers are the greatest, then congratulations on your setup.

My friends NEW 46' LDP 1080 P HDTV wide screen ><

[creativehope]

A few months ago I use my viewsonic hd dlp projector at 1280x1024 across a 120" screen with a 5.1 dobly surround sound system. That was some of the best gaming ever, but now I use a 22" computer moniter at the same resolution same surround sound system. Its not the same anymore http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

[360NyTeMaRe]

That includes my computer screen because I use it too. It's 17" flat screen.

Yeah, unfortunately, my camera doesn't take good shots of TVs.

Looks blurry and the color isn't the same as what you see in-person, etc.

I don't know if anybody's camera does, really.

Looks fine if you're there, though.

Updated because I hooked up my bigger speakers.

I can't get my damn webcam to take a picture, so I made a video since I'm too lazy to use my camera phone, or just install the program for the webcam. By the way, I'm streaming music from the computer to the Xbox. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

It's the back cover of the PSU artbook. The front has Ethan with a handgun but I'm pretty sure we've seen enough of him.
