So after seeing the enthusiasm in the comments section of today’s Question of the Day, we decided to extend our invitation of sending pics of your gaming corner/crib/station/desk/area/room to us.
This will allow us to see where you live… I mean, where you game and get a better understanding of who our readers are. The resident psychic will look at the photos you send and be able to determine how many siblings you have and what car you drive, all from looking at where you spend your time gaming.
Please send your pics in to Oliver at oliver[@]el33tonline.com or Lisa at lisa[@]el33tonline.com and we will compile them into a nice article sometime soon. Your gaming spot could become famous the world over!
Please note that this is not a competition to see who has the biggest TV or the loudest sound. This is simply a platform to share your corner where the gaming magic happens. And who knows, you might just find that we feel sorry enough for your gaming corner and award you with a little something-something!
To get this show on the road I now present you with my games/cinema room below. Now send us yours!

Now that is a hectic room, would love to play BF3 in that room. sound will be awesome. I'll send in my pics later today or in the morning.
Nawce setup Oliver. I'll be coming over on Wednesday so I can play GOW3 in style. Hehehe.
Nice topic !!!
My predictions are
Smuroh will have the ossum setup Gaaty will be gaming on a 24-27" monitor hence his killing streak in Gears POltjie I assume games on a 32" in his bedroom Lisa will have 40" and probably some chick decoration around the TV Oliver will be on a 55" LED TV
@Viking well I don't play on the 32" anymore as my wife complains when I do, so I game in Full HD on a 23" in my office.
Is that picture/setup real? I'll need to give my lil corner a cleanup before I can send in any pictures.
Ha, Oltman is just trying to make everyone really jealous by posting a picture of what he wishes his gaming setup looks like. Stay tuned and we'll post the pictures of what everyone's setups look like, including mine and Oltmans (mine doesn't have any chick decorations Viking, just a few kickass gaming figurines!)
What Da!!! How did Oltman get into my house to take that picture???
you will see mine in a year or two :) i know its a long wait lol
@Viking, try a 22" Wide Screen LCD -_- (so embarrassed)
@jGLZA, no no no! Take it AS IS! :P
oh oh oh oh, while we on the topic, you know the new range of lg and sansung tv's and monitors that came out.... can you do a review on em please? please please please?
We'd love to, we just need to chat to someone at LG and Samsung to get review units and then we can bring you the lowdown.
:D lovely stuff...
Pictures taken. Will be sending them soon ;)
First I need to get my Gears 3 fix for the day!
Ok my setup is in the Bar, i need to do a bit of a clean-up before i send a pic
@Beanibil1ty I bought a LG 24" Full HD LED for only R2000 earlier this year. Now that was money well spend.
I"ve just sent in my pics of my setup and of my collection. Can't wait to see the other setups. mine is very geeky.
No time to clean up i will show the p33ps how mine looks everyday. Sorry for the mess. :)
@fullmetal i bought samsung 24" for R2400 last year... planing on getting me the 27" 3d monitor but i want to compare it to the tv's
Well my station has to be clean the whole time because if visitors come over they won't just see a big mess. but for non gamers, my desk will look like a mess with all the things standing around.
lol, whats the most unique part of your station?
That is why i didnt clean we are all gamers i don't let anyone touch my mess it's my organised mess i know where everything is most of the time. The one thing i hate my phone keep disappearing somehow at my station then i have to switch on the remote location and then i find it next to my xbox but i know i did not put it there. STRANGE!!!
most unique part of my station is I can switch form Xbox to pc and back with just one push of a button. Never do i have to go to two different places to do gaming. And I have a nice collection of figurines standing around on my desk.....(note to self....need to put up shelf this weekend)
i understand bout the button thing, but what i like is that i can be on facebook, MUFC games on tv and play gears... i got 2 unique parts to my room, 1stly is my sub under my desk, the hight of it is perfect to rest my feet on when i play games, then theres the holy grail... my hookah pipe... it sets the mood of the room, chills the buzz and gets me in the mood to wallbounce like crazy
There's nothing really unique about my setup except that I think I'm subconsciously trying to arch it around me like a half moon. (from left (the Aircon) - to middle (the Xbox and Games) - to right (the Snacks))
Gonna send off my pics now :D
pics?... i thought its only one pic :(
I think you can send a couple. I managed to get mine in with one shot...and I sent a few pics of my games collection.
You can send more than one pic if you like - we'll collect them all together and post them on El33t soon.
soon as in?
Should we make the deadline for sending pics in Friday? Then we'll post the pics up on El33t on Monday. So you have three more days to snap those pics and send them through!
sounds fair
@Lisa I think that would be a great Idea. people should also take a pic as IS of there station eg No cleaning up. lol. I even had the El33t website open at the time of my pic...respect to the greats site ever.
il be taking my pics today, almost forgot, mmmm work, work.
Pics sent!
Cool, looking forward to seeing everyone's setups....i think its going to be a really interesting article.
hope they gana ask what pc rig we have.... mwahhhahahahahahaha cant help braging bout it, it my pride off all my things...ahhhhh idea, it would be cool to have a page to upload pics related to gaming, like mods you do to your consoles, stuff like that, like when i broke my control because of rambokitten
@POItjie... i was reading through al the comments and i saw your 1st one for the day 'December 07, 2011 at 05:53 AM' DUDE.... why you no sleep later?
@Beanibil1ty I go to bed at 12 every night some times later and I'm up every day at 5am. I don't like sleep as I don't wanna miss anything.
O and i run on Cream Soda. The drink of a true gamer. Would would agree with me on that?
no.... coke dude, got caffine, gas, sugar, water and CO2, everthing a growing gamer needs
POltjie says "You can sleep when you dead"
ROTFLOL
Creme Soda the hangover drink aka "The green ambulance"
Cream Soda is the best drink. on Saturday i must had have like 4ltr of the stuff. Oliver even told me at DBNgamers that he can now see i was serious about my cream soda.
just say you wana become hulk...
Not really, I don't have the cash to buy new controllers everyday.
Okay my pics are sent! \o/ Don't laugh, but my PC monitor is bigger than my TV :/ What I like about my setup is that everything's centralised. I have my TV and Xbox on one side of the room, and PC on the other, so all I have to do is swivel around when I need to do something on the other platform (bear in mind it's a really small room, so its not like I have to get up or anything) ;)
What I don't like is that it's a "very small room" :/ not enough space when friends come over or for playing anything motion-control related
my "real" pic has been sent in too ;) i got busted by FullMetal when i sneaked inot his room ;)
my area has to be clean as it is the main lounge of our house. if it is too untidy i upset everyone else in the house! (its just my wife and i ;) ) so my PS3 serves as entertainment hub for watching DVD's and Blu-Rays, as well as backed up disks in my media centre PC.
i think the next pic sent in should be of your movie / game / cd collections :)
@POItjie: Creme Soda is THE BEST drink ever! on the rocks or in a float, it cannot be beat!
oh, before i forget, the real source for that picture is here:
http://www.noiseaddicts.com/2008/08/jeremy-kipnis-home-theater-6-million/
how insane is that???
@Oltman I"m glad you agree about the Creme Soda. It is awesome. Was just asked the other day what would I do if it had to be taken off the market. I shed a tear and said i don't wanna think about it.
I've already sent in a pic of my game collection, well part of it as the rest are still in boxes.
Today is the last day for you guys to send in you pics of your station. can't wait to see this article
