New 55 inch TV, got the PS5 running smooth, comfortable gaming chair, mini fridge stocked. The kids are in bed by 8 so that's my time. Been working through Elden Ring and its brutal but addictive. My buddies come over every other Friday night for gaming and beers. Best investment I've made in myself in years honestly.
That's awesome man. I've got a similar setup in my garage and honestly it's been a game changer for my mental health. Even just 30 minutes after the kids go to bed makes a huge difference. What games are you running on that PS5?
That 8 PM cutoff is gold, I'm just trying to get my two down at a reasonable time so I can breathe for five minutes. Enjoy every second of that man cave time.
The PS5 running smooth with a new TV sounds like heaven after a long week. That's the kind of setup worth the wait and planning.
This is the dream right here. How'd you manage to get uninterrupted time to actually use it with kids in the house?
Living the dream right there. How long before the kids find the man cave and turn it into a fort though?
That mini fridge stocked is the real MVP. Nothing beats gaming with cold drinks ready to go.
Nice setup! Just wait till your 10 year old discovers your PS5. Mine somehow knows exactly when I'm about to play and suddenly needs something urgent.

Nice setup! Just a heads up though - I made the mistake of letting my kids see my gaming area once and now they think it's a family entertainment zone. Might want to establish some clear boundaries early on.
