When we are determined to create an independent game audio-visual room, it is very much like the establishment of a dedicated home theater. But the two are still different. The most important point is that the independent game audio-visual room focuses on the game experience, it needs additional peripheral devices for corresponding types of games, even VR games and somatosensory games.
What to consider in setting up your Game Room?
1.Game console platform: try to add various game elements
Since it is a game room, the first thing to consider is which game console platform should be used. If there is no pressure on budget, the cost of building the three mainstream companies, including Sony PS4 Pro, Xbox One X and Nintendo Switch, is lower than traditional audio-visual playback equipment. Even if they are all selected, the overall hardware cost is not high. , The main thing is the cost of later game software purchases. If you choose your favorite games with a certain purpose and pertinence, in fact, we still recommend that you try to integrate various types of game platforms into the entire game audio-visual system.
If you must choose a certain platform, from the perspective of audio and video effects, Xbox One X and PC personal computer platforms have certain advantages at this stage, with 4K HDR10 and immersive 3D sound support, and PC personal computers also have Very high expansion performance, upgrading the CPU central processing unit and GPU image processor can achieve higher specifications of audio and video output in the future, but in comparison, the construction cost is also higher. Although the performance of Sony PS4 Pro is not as good as the two platforms mentioned above, it also has the ability to output 4K HDR and surround sound effects, coupled with huge game resources and deep mass base, it is also a good choice.
2. Special requirements: the game audio-visual system
Nowadays, there are many kinds of games, and some of the game controls have been separated from ordinary game controllers and need to be realized through some realistic control devices. Among them, the most popular games are racing games. The representative of this type of game is the GT series from Sony’s PlayStation platform. Its biggest feature is not only the fidelity of the picture, but more importantly, the game experience is very similar to the general racing driving feeling, and it is the most popular among players who love drag racing. The best choice.
Then, to play well, you must add third-party control equipment to operate, including the steering wheel, gear lever, pedals and racing seats. Therefore, when we create a dedicated game audio and video room, we must set aside the emperor's seat for these third-party control devices. In addition, if you want to add VR or somatosensory game functions, it is also recommended to leave enough space in the game audio-visual room. One of the biggest differences in the spatial design of the independent game audio-visual room and the home theater audio-visual room lies in the design of the listening area. The game audio-visual room should focus more on how we can enjoy the game more. And not just the best picture and sound experience.
3. Construction of the audio-visual system: a large-screen
Players can build a large-screen system of 150 inches or more. It is worth noting that since most of the current game screens are in 16:9 ratio, only a few old games have a 4:3 ratio, but they don’t like to use a wide screen like 2.35-2.40:1 like movies. Screen ratio, so when we choose the projection screen, we need to make sure that the screen ratio is 16:9, not 2.35:1, but if you are mainly watching movies and occasionally playing games, it’s okay to choose 2.35:1 , But when playing games, there will be more obvious black borders on the left and right sides of the screen.
In terms of projector selection, considering that PS5 and Xbox SeriesX will be launched at the end of this year, these two new era consoles will likely become the first batch of game consoles with HDMI 2.1 specification transmission interfaces, and they are fully equipped with high-specification 4K HDR and For the output capability of immersive three-dimensional sound effects, we should try our best to use home theater projectors with high specifications. In the future, we can also give priority to new models with HDMI 2.1 specifications.
