XBox 360
SD Digital Set top box
PS2
AV selector
Gamecube
XBox
Amp
Equaliser
DVD player

All going into those monstrous speakers and a 80cm HD LCD TV.

Soon to be added (need to buy a lowline unit to put the HD TV on):
the older 68cm CRT TV
Megadrive
Dreamcast
and of course:
Wii

That's the number of remotes that are currently being used. I'm looking at building some kind of lego technic device to move the Amp volume control so I don't have to get up to move it (fear the lazy).

And this is what happens when you have 2 geeks with full time jobs sharing a house. We value our leisure time. So much so that when the second TV goes in we fully intend to have TV/movie on one and gaming happening on the other.

Also, we are hoping to get the landlords approval to put dataports in the walls to hardwire the place so wireless doesn't get too stretched.

I don't know what that white vertical thing next to your Gamecube is but at first glance I thought you had two 360s. That would have been awesome in the worst way imaginable.

That's an AV selector which is designed specifically for the 360 It also has 6 input channels which helped.

Nice setup, but come on: you spent all the money on the toys, you have to give them a stand and storage area that's as respectable as they are.

This is basically what I've got. The Xbox has been replaced by a 360 and the Toshiba is gone in favor of a 65" Mitsubishi DLP. I just haven't really bothered to take new pictures.
