If you have the room for it (desk with a keyboard and mouse, etc), sure. However, bear in mind that PC gaming is generally at much higher resolutions - eg, 1920×1200. The HD65 can only go up to 1280×720, which is a lot less. If you have a cheap graphics card, yeah, you can get away with it, but if I could choose between gaming on a 24" monitor and the projector....well, I'd go for the monitor. ;) That said, a projector is ideal for console gaming. Most PS3 and 360 games are only 720p, so it's ideal for that. :) dor: Yes and no. If you have the room for it (desk with a keyboard and mouse, etc), sure.

I've got one and also am very happy with it. Sound is a bit of a problem, and I think to build a noise killing box with several 120mm fans http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan. Another problem of placing is still actual for me, and I think of buying a tripod http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tripod_(photography) and attaching noise killing box to tripod. Good review.
