Believe it or not I am still asked this question. Since its release my answer has always been “yes”. With the new price drop , new restyling and some great games as of late there is no reason not to have one. For any guy or gal that’s into sports games, this is without a doubt the right system for you. MLB The Show is the best baseball game I have played in the past few years. The PS3 also offers other awesome exclusive titles along with a vast selection of movies to rent or buy.
The Blu-Ray player is outstanding; the PlayStation store has really come on as of late and with constant updates it keeps the system fresh and enjoyable. The system has come along way since it was released and it keeps getting better. Who cares if you have a xbox…you can enjoy both.

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
Amazon is my favorite place to buy electronics and other random things. Usually when I am shopping for, well, almost anything, I start out by going to Best Buy, HH Gregg or even Wal-Mart, and then I come home and buy that item from Amazon at a much lower price most of the time. One of my other favorite web sites is htmarket.com. This website has given me some great ideas. They can be a bit pricey but often have great deals and great coupons sent to your email.
These two companies have everything that you can think of when making a Man Cave. HTmarket has great bundle deals that meet any budget. An item to check out is the Buttkicker. It mounts inside your sofa or chair and gives you a different movie or gaming experience every time it hits. The Buttkicker starts out at about $430. Still, I recommend searching for anything you consider buying on Amazon’s site first to find the best deal, but between these two web sites you can get plenty of ideas and in most cases save some money.
So I got to thinking about all he TV’s on the market and I thought, “WOW there’s a lot of TV’s out there!”. So what are your friends here at MCMH.com gonna do? You guessed it, we’re gonna run a four part series on each different type of TV! So grab your favorite gaming chair and popcorn and let’s get down to what you need to enjoy the best Man Cave Media experience for your own budget (We’ll talk about what’s not in your budget too, but that’s what dreams and second mortgages are for!).
Part one of the series is going to be all about LCD
The SlingBox
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)
How can it be two weeks into this website and we have not written one article about the nectar of gods? It dates back as far as 9000 B.C., and believe it or not, it wasn’t invented to help your father sleep with your mother no matter what he tells you. Ancient Egyptians made beer in a primitive form for use during a prayer to the goddess Ninkasi. Beer has seen a lot of changes since those days. In some cases it is still used in religious ceremonies, mostly on Saturdays in the fall (Go Bucks).
Flash forward to the late 1800’s and early 1900’s where prohibition swept parts of the country. Fortunately after the fugly women stopped getting laid, beer was welcomed back with open arms and a false since of reality. Large breweries popped up all over the country and big names in beer started to emerge. After micro-breweries like Sam Adams were started in the 1980’s, the idea of making your own beer spread to every jack-hole that thought he could make a little money. Do we really need a pomegranate beer? Stop with the,”Hey dude, try my beer, I made it in my basement.” We all have our favorites so there is no need to review specific beers on this web page, so raise your glass of your favorite beer and enjoy it in moderation.
