| I do my gaming on a 32inch Toshiba HDLCD TV. It is not the best around, but the 360 and PS3 look very nice on it.
Let us know what you guys have.

| I have a 36 inch LCD, unfortunately its not full HD though. I get to play on my housemates set up now though, which is a huge wall-mounted 46-48Inch LCD with a 7.2 Surround System. I never realized how big of a difference it makes with games like Halo and Mass Effect with such a great set-up! | |

| Running mine on a 50inch Pioneer 508xda. Doesnt matter if its not full HD Laxman, you wouldnt even notice the difference. Resolution isnt that big a deal with smaller screens your contrast ratio and colour saturation are more important according to the ISF. Cant wait to build my theatre and get a projector. Tell you what with the aussie dollar getting stuff from US is cheap as these days, Im eyeing off a new amplifier, but the wife doesnt know that | |

| I got sent a pair of Steelseries 5XB http://steelseries.com/products/consoles/steelseries-spectrum-5xb to try and review for the site and I must say they are pretty awesome. Just got to figure out how to properly do the xbox live chat through them before I do my final review. I love being able to actually hear my game when playing at night while the wife and kid is asleep! lol | |

| Yeah they are pretty cool. However, when they release in Australia next month they will retail for $179.95 which is pretty steep. How much were the ones you got? | |

| No I don't think it does Ian. I don't have a mic for mine anyway and the Steelseries 5XB are specifically designed for the 360, although you can use them as regular headphone for the PC/TV. | |

| the ps has a mic chat room feature but you need to have a camera as well which most guys dont so its pretty useless, we just meet up in lobbies for games like mw2 and such and chat there | |

| On the topic of headphones, I think im going to go large and dish out some hard-eanred for these beauties: Astro A40 Audio System. Complete with the Mix Amp thing, those should be pretty sweet.

| wow hardcore, I expect them to be pretty sweet, might have to hide the price tag from the misses the set i got has a seperate volume control for game sounds and chat, as well as bass control, and mic mute so i cant complain, actually very happy with them  | |

I am looking forward to that review Craig, been looking out for some nice earphones that I can chat through Live on. I have a pair Sennheisers that I use now which are awesome and cost a small fortune. But they obviously don't do Live chat. As for TV I have a 46inch X series Bravia (the one with the glass bevel around the outside) it is awesome. | |

| Nowadays I do most of my gaming on the secondary TV (50" Panasonic G10), sitting two metres away on a bean bag is very nice indeed  . It's full HD but I have to settle for 720p when playing 360 due to having the original SKU without HDMI input. My family's main TV in the family room is a Panasonic 54" V20 from last year which has surround sound but I don't usually get a chance to use it much for gaming. Edit: Whoops, sorry for the bump | |
