I did an unboxing already,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":28.8,"end_s":35.2,"text":"so you can check that out if you want to see it. But, uh, we'll just sort of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":32.96,"end_s":39.84,"text":"recap for the sake of anyone who hasn't already watched that video. So, on the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":37.28,"end_s":44.879,"text":"top, you've got your manufacturer logo, which is G A E M S. I guess it's meant","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":42.48,"end_s":48.559,"text":"to be pronounced games, like as in spelled wrong, but still would be","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":46.64,"end_s":54.48,"text":"pronounced games. Okay, so it's the G155. Okay. On this side, you find a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":51.96,"end_s":57.76,"text":"clip, which can have a shoulder strap attached to it by the look of things. It","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":56.32,"end_s":61.84,"text":"could also have a lock attached to it, whichever you prefer. I don't think that's going to work as a shoulder","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":59.92,"end_s":66.4,"text":"strap. Let's go with lock. So, you can lock the one side, you can lock the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":64.559,"end_s":71.88,"text":"other side. Okay. On the bottom, you find three rubber nonslippy things. On","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":69.92,"end_s":75.92,"text":"the bottom, you find more rubber non-slippiness. So, whether you put it","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":73.92,"end_s":79.52,"text":"down this way or whether you put it down this way, it shouldn't slip and it","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":77.68,"end_s":83.68,"text":"shouldn't fall over. Now, the unit was unstable when I put it on the table in","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":81.439,"end_s":87.04,"text":"my unboxing. But, see, look. Look how stable it is. Now, the reason is that","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":85.36,"end_s":90.88,"text":"it's meant to have a game console loaded in it in addition to the LCD monitor","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":89.28,"end_s":95.119,"text":"that's already in there.

So, I'm going to go ahead and put this","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":97.2,"end_s":106.24,"text":"down. This is the game I'm going to run on it right here. Uncip both sides. Oh,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":103.439,"end_s":112.159,"text":"yeah. The carrying piece. So, metal, robust rubber here, very","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":108.92,"end_s":115.72,"text":"strong. All right, let's open this bad","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":112.159,"end_s":120.079,"text":"boy up. And inside we","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":115.72,"end_s":123.6,"text":"find our HD LCD monitor, including a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":120.079,"end_s":126.32,"text":"power button, volume control, brightness","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":123.6,"end_s":131.2,"text":"up, brightness down, menu, and two headphone jacks, an HDMI input, and a","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":129.2,"end_s":133.92,"text":"power input.

So,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":151.28,"end_s":160.16,"text":"I've got two Xbox 360 controllers there. You could also take out the power plugs,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":157.44,"end_s":165.599,"text":"which I'm going to go ahead and plug in. So, I'll need two. So, I'll go one","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":163.48,"end_s":172.239,"text":"there. And then I'm going to pull out the Xbox Whoops. 360 power brick. And","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":170.64,"end_s":175.36,"text":"I'm going go ahead and take that around there. So, this is the setup that you","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":173.68,"end_s":180.0,"text":"will have to do. The reality of it is you need to uh two power plugs and all","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":178.08,"end_s":183.12,"text":"that in order to get the unit running. So, you know, hopefully you can live","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":182.0,"end_s":188.72,"text":"with that. I'm going to have to unplug one of my lights in here. So, hopefully it's not too bad. Is it okay? Okay. All","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":186.8,"end_s":192.0,"text":"right. So, that's what I had stored in there. Now, I wasn't able to find any","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":190.319,"end_s":197.519,"text":"additional room for games, but I guess you could probably get away with like one game here or something like that.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":195.04,"end_s":201.76,"text":"But, you can see how the Xbox 360 is strapped in. So, this pad on the bottom","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":199.599,"end_s":206.239,"text":"protects it. It's very, very soft. You can flip it over the other way for the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":203.28,"end_s":210.239,"text":"PS3 Slim or for the Xbox 360 slim. And then what you do is you take these","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":207.599,"end_s":216.08,"text":"straps, you strap in your console, and it is not going anywhere. So, I have it","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":213.84,"end_s":221.2,"text":"plugged in. Let's go ahead and power it on. I've actually not yet turned this","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":218.72,"end_s":228.56,"text":"thing on before. And I hope I have batteries in","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":223.68,"end_s":228.56,"text":"my Xbox 360 controller. I do. All","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":229.799,"end_s":238.0,"text":"right. Okay. Give me a sec here, guys. I'll wait for it to boot up. Sorry about","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":234.08,"end_s":240.56,"text":"that, guys. Okay. So, we have the G155","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":238.0,"end_s":245.159,"text":"gaming station. I've got it all set up and the Xbox 360 is booted up. And I","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":243.2,"end_s":249.36,"text":"also have a helium balloon. So, I'm feeling pretty","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":247.04,"end_s":253.599,"text":"lightheaded right about now. Oh, that's better. Okay. So, I just want to show","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":251.28,"end_s":258.239,"text":"you guys basically how it works in terms of the viewing angle, in terms of any","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":255.92,"end_s":262.16,"text":"sort of ghosting or motion blur that you're going to see on this particular","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":259.68,"end_s":267.52,"text":"screen. So, uh I mean I think you pretty much got the point. Here's something","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":263.919,"end_s":269.12,"text":"that it bears noting. Uh, it's really","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":267.52,"end_s":272.24,"text":"hard to move around once it's deployed because of the rubber grippy things on","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":270.56,"end_s":277.04,"text":"the bottom, which is good. You don't want it to just sort of randomly move","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":274.16,"end_s":280.88,"text":"around. But, um, all your ventilation holes at the back have ample room","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":279.28,"end_s":285.6,"text":"between the back of the Xbox and the screen. Your ventilation holes here are","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":282.96,"end_s":290.08,"text":"not Did I just do something? Oh, I just ejected the game. Whoops. Um, are not","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":287.84,"end_s":294.32,"text":"too obstructed by the straps. And then the ones on the bottom are also not that","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":291.919,"end_s":298.96,"text":"obstructed. So, your Xbox 360 shouldn't run into any more uh overheating","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":296.639,"end_s":302.32,"text":"problems than normal uh when you're using the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":299.88,"end_s":305.84,"text":"G155. Now, in terms of the speakers that we're equipped with here, I guess uh","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":304.08,"end_s":310.4,"text":"give me a sec to get the game booted back up now that I now that I broke it,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":308.4,"end_s":315.199,"text":"and then we can uh we can listen to the speakers. So, just a sec. So, here's the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":312.96,"end_s":319.039,"text":"viewing angles, you guys. It is a TN panel, so it's not going to be perfect","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":316.96,"end_s":323.68,"text":"by any stretch of the imagination. But I'm so far away at this point that uh","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":322.32,"end_s":328.639,"text":"really realistically, you're not going to be playing with four people on something like this. So, if you got two","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":327.199,"end_s":331.759,"text":"people, you're sitting at a reasonable distance. You got kind of person one","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":330.639,"end_s":335.28,"text":"here, it's going to look about like that. And then you got person one here,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":333.68,"end_s":340.24,"text":"and it's going to look about like that. So, uh that's pretty much how it's going","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":337.759,"end_s":344.6,"text":"to go down. Now, in terms of the volume, let's go ahead","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":342.28,"end_s":348.8,"text":"and crank this up. I mean, I don't want you guys to","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":346.8,"end_s":350.96,"text":"have unrealistic expectation. Okay, we're probably not going to crank that","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":349.919,"end_s":356.72,"text":"all the way up because it's getting pretty loud to be perfectly","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":353.96,"end_s":360.0,"text":"honest. So, go ahead and start the game. Continue","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":357.88,"end_s":365.44,"text":"story. So, here, why don't I just kind of leave this here, and I'm going to go","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":362.56,"end_s":369.44,"text":"ahead and adjust the screen. No, apparently I can't do that. Okay. So,","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":367.84,"end_s":374.28,"text":"what I could do is I could put a game box","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":371.24,"end_s":377.199,"text":"here and I could put that","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":374.28,"end_s":379.919,"text":"there. So, it is a glossy screen, so you are going to get a little bit of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":378.319,"end_s":384.84,"text":"reflectiveness. So, I'm going to go ahead and kill the light that's right","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":381.36,"end_s":387.44,"text":"behind it. And the other light. There we","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":384.84,"end_s":394.72,"text":"are. Hand to hand gives you the ability to execute. Okay. Whoops. Okay. I","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":391.52,"end_s":396.639,"text":"haven't really used the Xbox much, so uh","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":394.72,"end_s":398.88,"text":"I'm not an expert. Is it loading right now","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":399.88,"end_s":405.36,"text":"or? There we","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":402.919,"end_s":408.56,"text":"go. Come on. Sooner we get this loaded up, the sooner we get it to the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":406.639,"end_s":417.0,"text":"Americans at the airport.

How we doing?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":418.72,"end_s":425.599,"text":"Yeah, no kidding. Any idea what's in the big box?","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":423.759,"end_s":430.889,"text":"Okay. Apparently, they didn't notice that.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":433.44,"end_s":441.16,"text":"I've actually never played a Splinter Cell game. A to jump.

And they didn't notice that somehow. I think they're even facing","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":454.0,"end_s":457.16,"text":"over there.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":461.44,"end_s":466.479,"text":"Okay. Well, the general point of that was that the speakers are pretty loud.","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":464.72,"end_s":471.199,"text":"Definitely a satisfactory gaming experience.

Should you ever have the desire to travel with your Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 Slim, you can get one of these and you can game on the go. I am have it all packed up inside here and ready to demo, but I just want to show you guys the outside of this case. I did an unboxing already, so you can check that out if you want to see it. But, uh, we'll just sort of recap for the sake of anyone who hasn't already watched that video. So, on the top, you've got your manufacturer logo, which is G A E M S. I guess it's meant to be pronounced games, like as in spelled wrong, but still would be pronounced games. Okay, so it's the G155. Okay. On this side, you find a clip, which can have a shoulder strap attached to it by the look of things. It could also have a lock attached to it, whichever you prefer. I don't think that's going to work as a shoulder strap. Let's go with lock. So, you can lock the one side, you can lock the other side. Okay. On the bottom, you find three rubber nonslippy things. On the bottom, you find more rubber non-slippiness. So, whether you put it down this way or whether you put it down this way, it shouldn't slip and it shouldn't fall over. Now, the unit was unstable when I put it on the table in my unboxing. But, see, look. Look how stable it is. Now, the reason is that it's meant to have a game console loaded in it in addition to the LCD monitor that's already in there. So, that's why it was leaning to one side quite easily when it didn't have a console inside. So, I'm going to go ahead and put this down. This is the game I'm going to run on it right here. Uncip both sides. Oh, yeah. The carrying piece. So, metal, robust rubber here, very strong. All right, let's open this bad boy up. And inside we find our HD LCD monitor, including a power button, volume control, brightness up, brightness down, menu, and two headphone jacks, an HDMI input, and a power input. This two headphone jacks thing is critical because you're probably not going to be playing with like four players on something like this. But it'd be pretty cool if you were traveling around and you had your your Xbox 360 and you could, you know, plug in one pair of headphones to get your friend to plug in a pair of headphones and then you could use the two controllers that can be stored in the little pouch on the side here. So, I've got two Xbox 360 controllers there. You could also take out the power plugs, which I'm going to go ahead and plug in. So, I'll need two. So, I'll go one there. And then I'm going to pull out the Xbox Whoops. 360 power brick. And I'm going go ahead and take that around there. So, this is the setup that you will have to do. The reality of it is you need to uh two power plugs and all that in order to get the unit running. So, you know, hopefully you can live with that. I'm going to have to unplug one of my lights in here. So, hopefully it's not too bad. Is it okay? Okay. All right. So, that's what I had stored in there. Now, I wasn't able to find any additional room for games, but I guess you could probably get away with like one game here or something like that. But, you can see how the Xbox 360 is strapped in.

I've actually not yet turned this thing on before. And I hope I have batteries in my Xbox 360 controller. I do. All right. Okay. Give me a sec here, guys. I'll wait for it to boot up. Sorry about that, guys. Okay. So, we have the G155 gaming station. I've got it all set up and the Xbox 360 is booted up. And I also have a helium balloon. So, I'm feeling pretty lightheaded right about now. Oh, that's better. Okay. So, I just want to show you guys basically how it works in terms of the viewing angle, in terms of any sort of ghosting or motion blur that you're going to see on this particular screen. So, uh I mean I think you pretty much got the point. Here's something that it bears noting. Uh, it's really hard to move around once it's deployed because of the rubber grippy things on the bottom, which is good. You don't want it to just sort of randomly move around. But, um, all your ventilation holes at the back have ample room between the back of the Xbox and the screen. Your ventilation holes here are not Did I just do something? Oh, I just ejected the game.

So, your Xbox 360 shouldn't run into any more uh overheating problems than normal uh when you're using the G155. Now, in terms of the speakers that we're equipped with here, I guess uh give me a sec to get the game booted back up now that I now that I broke it, and then we can uh we can listen to the speakers. So, just a sec. So, here's the viewing angles, you guys. It is a TN panel, so it's not going to be perfect by any stretch of the imagination.

So, go ahead and start the game. Continue story. So, here, why don't I just kind of leave this here, and I'm going to go ahead and adjust the screen. No, apparently I can't do that. Okay. So, what I could do is I could put a game box here and I could put that there. So, it is a glossy screen, so you are going to get a little bit of reflectiveness. So, I'm going to go ahead and kill the light that's right behind it. And the other light. There we are. Hand to hand gives you the ability to execute. Okay. Whoops. Okay. I haven't really used the Xbox much, so uh I'm not an expert. Is it loading right now or? There we go. Come on. Sooner we get this loaded up, the sooner we get it to the Americans at the airport. Sooner we do that, the sooner we get paid. Oh, was that a guy? How we doing? Yeah, no kidding. Any idea what's in the big box? Okay. Apparently, they didn't notice that. I've actually never played a Splinter Cell game. A to jump. Oh, that one. Okay, there we go. Here we go. Left trigger to drop. Left. Oh, wow. Cool. And they didn't notice that somehow. I think they're even facing over there. Okay. Well, the general point of that was that the speakers are pretty loud. Definitely a satisfactory gaming experience. So, thank you for checking out my uh first look and gameplay video with the G51 portable gaming station, and I hope you enjoyed it.

Just to give you guys some idea, it looks better in person than it looks on the camera. There's a lot of reflectiveness that the camera's catching and that you really can't see in person. I'd say this zone kind of right here is representative of how the screen actually looks. Because with that light behind me, it looks fine. Yeah, it's just the lens is having the camera's having a hard time adjusting to the uh the back lit screen. So, I'd say the color is sort of more like this than like this at all. This is This is more like it."}
