I probably shouldn't even give this unit three stars but for some reason I like it. Maybe it's because my largest TV is only a 32" and this gives me a somewhat (ok bad) 60". The first thing I did when I got it was try it for watching movies as that was really all I wanted it for. It does well in a dark room at about 5'. Color isn't great and any dark movies will be nearly unwatchable on it. If you love horror movies don't buy this. The first thing you should do after purchasing this is get a new lamp for it. I got mine at Lowe's and tried and returned several before finding the best one. I used a 50-Watt Edison Halogen MR16 Narrow Floodlight Bulb. Item # 148820. This has a marked improvement over the lamp that comes with the projector and any of the other lamps including the GE Reveal. This is probably the best thing you can do to improve this unit. Don't even bother turning it on with the one that comes with it. At any rate if you like watching lighter movies or Discovery channel nature stuff you will do OK with this. I hooked my XBOX 360 up to it and the opening green screen is all washed out and hardly see able. Playing games is ok but the only way you can see to shoot is by movement as detail is horrible. I am currently looking at a $600 Epsion projector. I will still keep this for watching some movies because of the cheap ($7) replacement lamps but otherwise it will sit on the shelf where it no doubt belongs.
