    Default 360 on a projector

    Always wanted to try this, I borrowed a projector from work for research purposes - was playing Blazing Angels last night in a darkened room with the screen filling the full wall. Felt like you were in the fkin plane! Classic. Just need to hook the audio to the surround system for added fun.

    i had one also set up through a big surround sound, it was class. used it on a white roller blind but the proper screens are a bit better. thing is i was playing fifa and it really pissed me off so i threw the joypad. it accidently hit the projector breaking the bulb. they are very fragile, get very hot, and cost a lot to replace so i got rid after all.

    A friend of mine brought a projector over to mine awhile back. The only free surface we could find was my ceiling!

    Just projected onto a blank wall mate, had to take the photos down but left the picture hooks in. Minor irritation but didn't hamper the gameplay.

    a realtive of mine has got1 but i got to say it dont look that good when playing a game. playing PGR3 the image was not crystal clear like you would expect on a HD-TV, on a HD-projector pgr3 didnt have the shine to it, you dont see the reflections on the cars etc. but pro evo 6 was great :-)
