Video Gaming Room Paint and Decorations Ideas Help??

so my fiance as the greatest woman has given me, for a wedding gift, the ability to turn one of our extra bedrooms, (the bigger of the 2 spare ones) into a Video Game room. 32" Wega, Gamecube, Xbox, N64, SNES, NES, ect, 5.1 sound. The room is like 11X11 or so. Not the biggest, but decent. She is allowing me to turn it into a video gaming room to complement the downstairs theater. I have no idea what color to paint the room, its Base White now, with a white Ceiling fanand a closest in the corner. Any ideas for paint color, or what else to decorate the room with?

Thanks

Since it seems you're no stranger to colors (see your theater and red bathroom ), I'd try something like a bluish-grey tone. Somethink like Behr's River Valley (580F-4):

Maybe more grey, less blue.

Thats not a bad idea, when I painted all my other rooms, I used Benjamin Moore Paint, $35/gallon, but was thinking of using cheaper paint this time, something like Behr. This isnt a bad color, will have to go get a sample from HD.... Thanks for the suggestion. Keep coming with the ideas

fixed!

And, just so I'm not a total jackass, I'd recommend you visit avsforum. I'm not sure we're allowed to link to them here, but they have several sub-forums dedicated to home theater and game room setups, including paint schemes and such. I have a deep red and tan paint scheme in my gaming/theater area. If I could do it again, I'd go with a gray and black paint scheme, with the wall that my equipment was against being black.
