Man Cave Must Haves

The Wii takes a lot of flack for not being a hard core gaming machine. People should realize that the Wii isn’t trying to compete with the PS3 or Xbox…it’s a whole different gaming experience. The Wii is great when groups of people, guys and girls, need some entertainment. It’s easy to make drinking games out of the bowling, or relive your childhood days on the playground at school. The group of accessories are not comparable to any other system. How can you not love a system that allows you to fight with real light sabors, steer a wheel of a racecar, or swing a racquet? This is a must have system for those of you who have a man cave that also doubles as a family room–anyone of any age can find a game they like for the Wii.

There is nothing worse than having to look for the remote to the cable box, or the one for the tv, or the one for the surround sound. I never really thought I needed a all-in-one remote. But after using this one I really don’t mind if my 2 year old hides the other remotes from me.

Now Logitech has made  a bunch of all-in-ones before. What makes the Logitech Harmony 890 Advanced Universal Remote Control different is how easy it is to setup up everything. Plus it looks cool. You can store up to 15 different devices on this remote. Personally I have every tv in my house programed in and I can go from one room to the next without looking for the remote. The remote can be updated with a connection to your computer via usb. You’ll never have to look for batteries the 890 offers a plug in charging station. This remote is one of the highest reviewed remotes on amazon. Its cool easy to setup and is Man Cave approved. Hit the link for more

The SlingBox is another one of those items that has been around for a while. I bought mine about 18 months ago and I don’t know what I would do without it. The SlingBox Solo is what I have.

Basically it’s pretty simple. You hook it up to your cable box then to your Internet. It turns any computer into your TV. If  I’m working out in the garage or sitting on the deck and I want to watch ESPN, I pull up my slingbox on my laptop and take it with me. Anywhere you can go and have access to a computer you can watch TV. They even offer a mobile version for blackberry and iPhone with an additional cost  $30.00. It’s a great gadget with a starting price of $150.00 for the Solo. It’s a must have.  (Picture above is the Slingbox PRO)
