We’ve already seen photos sent in by El33tonline’s community revealing the areas of their homes where they like to relax and dig into a few sessions of their favourite videogames. Where have we seen these photos? In part one and part two of our El33tonline Cribs photo feature!

Want to see even more pics of game ‘cribs’ belonging to friends and readers of El33tonline, this time in part three of our round-up? No problem:

Craig Gordon (Viking)

“You can see me playing Gears 3,” says Craig.

That. Is. An. Enormous. Display. Craig. And we like the lava lamp, too!

What can you see in the photo? Do you spy a full HD, 51-inch 3D plasma display? Can you see a Sony HT-DDW885 surround system? What about Craig’s Xbox Elite and PS3, both cranked with massive hard drives?

Yep, all present and accounted for, below:

Bronwin October (Bro October)

“These are my pics, thanks EL33T staff,” writes Bronwin, short and sweet style.

Uh… OK, thanks Bronwin – roll the clip!

Garth Stuurman (GaaTY)

“Not the most comfortable setup, but it works for me,” Garth says.

If it works, it works and if it lets you get into games easily, more power to you!

Garth also provided us with a few explanations of the pics, including the way everything “is set out in a unique order,” with looks at where he stacks a veritable “gaming shrine,” and where his Xbox is placed.

We don’t know if Garth is kidding or not, but he also referenced an ‘aircon,’ which amounts to a gap in-between his window and computer where cool air gushes in on a hot day… Regardless, here is a selection of Garth’s photos:

Gian-Paolo Buffo (MacDeath_ZA and L0rd0fTheFrags)

“Here are some pics of my gaming crib, which spans two rooms and a few metres worth of cables,” writes Gian-Paolo. “Can you spot the el33t stress ball and key chain I (not so secretly) hid in some of the pics?”

Very crafty indeed!

“Awesome website guys, keep up the good work.” Whoops, how did that get there…

Kelvin Addicott

“So I thought I’d send a photo of my dedicated gaming crib,” Kelvin tells us. We’re glad you did Kelvin!

“You’d be surprised at what some shops are willing to throw away,” he exclaims, referring to the game stands and displays now decorating his room.

Nice acquisitions!

Hassen NoorMahomed (Beanz777)

“Here’s my setup,” writes Hassen. “Pretty neat I’d say but it’s the comfort that counts!”

Very neat, with some very fancy chairs! Who’s coming ‘round for tea, Hassen? Hopefully us!

Werner Marais (Thanticore)

“I know this is a very late addition…” yes Werner, it is very late… but we’ll forgive you (smiley face).

“You can go ahead and add it to the site if you want!”, Werner continues.

You’re being defeatist and you’re shouting… but we’ll forgive you (smiley face).

“My Xbox collection is the size it is because I’ve had an Xbox since April 2007. Got my PS3 in May 2011.”

Werner, those game collections are too much – we’re getting very jealous (frownie face):
