With the advent of consoles like the Nintendo Wii and games such as Guitar Hero and Wii Sports Resort, a new breed of gamers has evolved, who don't consider gaming as their raison d'etre.
But they do enjoy getting together with a few friends to jam some Guitar Hero or prove their worth on lush greens or tennis courts in a virtual world of their choice.
It is with these social gamers in mind that Epson developed the EH-TW450 gaming projector, which is an excellent choice for anyone looking for high-quality, giant screen entertainment, whether for gaming, watching sports or enjoying home cinema.
The EH-TW450 projector combines great image quality, versatility and style with an attractive price, making it perfect for those looking to revolutionise their home entertainment experience with a cinema-style display that is six times bigger than a 52-inch flat screen television.
“Rated at 2 500 lumens, the Epson EH-TW450 is bright enough for almost any usage scenario. In addition, the EH-TW450 utilises 3LCD technology and has a contrast ratio of 3000:1, which ensures that great quality images are produced, even when you're not playing games in complete darkness,” explains Lyle Mitchley, product manager at Epson SA.
“The auto adjust colour mode means there is no need to worry about fine-tuning the video projector manually, adding to its convenience, and also ensures images are clear, bright and easy on the eyes,” Mitchley says.
A wide range of connections include an HDMI input, ensuring the projector works with all high-definition games consoles, while a built-in speaker completes the full entertainment experience. Easily accessible USB ports allow direct photo viewing for photography enthusiasts.
The Epson EH-TW450 is also portable thanks to its compact size, meaning it can be used anywhere, at any time.
“Epson is committed to preserving the environment and the EH-TW450 includes a low wattage E-TORL lamp, which conserves both money and energy without compromising on brightness,” Mitchley says. “In addition, all of the packaging is made from recycled materials, further reducing its carbon footprint.”
The Epson EH-TW450 gaming projector will be available from a selection of retail outlets; retail pricing is still to be confirmed.
