Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Pyramat Interactive PM300 3-Speaker Sound LoungerCustomer Review: Oh Pyramat, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways... Summary: 5 Stars
Pyramat is a piece of "gaming furniture," built by gamers for gamers. Let's face it-nobody actually sits in a chair and plays video games. They lay on the couch, they sit on the footrest, they lay on the floor...so why not admit that we're all just a bunch of gaming slobs and design furniture for how we play the game!
I first met Pyramat at a Digital Life convention in New York City. She was sleek, but a little too garish for my tastes-all bright orange and gray. Fortunately, she had a sister that only wore black. Just my kind of gal! I received my very own Pyramat for my birthday and she's shepherded me through an entire game of Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II.
Oh Pyramat, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways:
1. You're sexy: The Pyramat takes the awkward pyramid-shaped floor mats and turns it into a thing of beauty by putting something useful in the foam piece that acts as the headrest.
2. You're a Transformer: The Pyramat is quite talented-she folds up, just like those useless pyramid thingies, which means she's a lot easier to store. Even better, Pyramat has multiple modes: you can lay Pyramat out flat or turn her into a chair.
3. You vibrate: It's hard not to love a piece of furniture that vibrates. The Pyramat vibrates when she plays sounds, but it is NOT a rumblepack-enabled device. So don't expect the floor to shake when you play games. It's more like feeling the bass from a speaker.
4. You're easy to control: The Pyramat has a little nifty handheld device that allows the person reclining on the Pyramat to easily control the rumbling and the audio. Which is a good thing when you're killing monsters in Baldur's Gate and one of them decides to shriek at the top of its lungs.
5. You've got a great voice: When your head is between two speakers, the Pyramat's surround sound is so effective that it freaked me out. We were gaming on Halloween and my wife was greatly amused to see me glance left and right, wondering what the clanging sounds in the distance were. Pyramat, you're such a kidder!
6. You're bendy: Pyramat plugs into your TV, so she can be used to just watch TV, videos, or listen to music. Pyramat plugs into anything with an audio output, so that means musical instruments and MP3 players are also fair game.
7. You clean up real nice: Pyramat has zippered compartments for all of the foam inserts. If your cat pukes on Pyramat, it's easy to clean and the cushions can be replaced.
8. You like to bring a friend: Pyramat connects with other Pyramats for the ultimate multiplayer gaming experience. Although I'm not sure I want to lay next to another guy for that long...
9. You give good headphones: You can plug headphones into Pyramat for the ultimate sensory experience without annoying your neighbors with all that noise.
10. You're comfortable: Pyramat is no truncated mat. She's roomy enough at 68" long and 20" wide to lay out flat. Heck, forget gaming, you could just take a nap!
That said, Pyramat could use a cup holder. I mean, what do you think us gaming slobs are doing down on the floor when we're not gaming? We're drinking of course!
But I quibble. Pyramat is a sound investment if you're a serious gamer...or have really gross floors.
