GAME ROOM TV
In most cases a "Game Room TV" adds a whole new dimension of fun to a family game room.
And there are so many uses for a TV in a game room that before you dismiss the idea of adding one, you must consider the reasons why it's a great idea have one.
And still before going into the reasons why it's fun to add a TV, let's find out why some people prefer not to have one in a game room.
Some consider a TV in their game room as a distraction away from the fun. They believe that there's already too much TV in a person's life so leave it out of the game room. Also they say family game rooms are for family together time playing billiards, board games and an array of other family friendly games. And still others think there isn't enough room to add a Game Room TV.

There are a lot more Great Reasons for adding a TV to a family rec room I've just named a few of the top ones!
So whether you want an HDTV, Projector TV or Tube TV there is almost always enough space to add a TV. And depending on your room size you may need to scale the size down a bit or get creative with it's placement but you'll figure it out. It's fun coming up with a creative place to add a TV too.
So Where Will My TV Go?
That is probably the number two question asked by individuals after they decide they want to add a TV. It should be the first question though. But the first question is almost always "Which TV Should I Get?"
You need to think about where the TV will go first as that will dictate the size and type of TV you can fit into your room.
For example is it better to have a wall/ceiling mounted TV, a floor TV or a projector TV. Projector TVs are the coolest by far but you'll need a Projection Screen or flat white wall to project the image onto. Of course there are draw backs as bulbs only last for a specific period of time before you'll have to buy a new bulb for your projector. Because of that playing video games on a projector TV isn't the best thing to do.
On the flip side if you're just using it for game nights they're a great TV choice. They take up very little room, you can usually mount the projector on the ceiling and the projection screen can be ceiling mounted, wall mounted or on a stand or again you could use a flat wall, the clarity isn't bad at all and depending on the available space you can turn your game room into a mini movie theatre.
