Reviewed: Epson MegaPlex Projector — 60″ HD glory

First thoughts: this thing’s a goddamn monster. It’s the size of two Xboxes squashed together, makes a hell of a noise when it’s on and blinds you with its 3LCD display. But then I plug in my laptop via the HDMI port, run a copy 1080p copy of Tron: Legacy and everything’s as right as rain. It’s big, it’s black, it’s Epson’s MegaPlex projector.

To quote its full name, it’s the Epson MegaPlex MG850HD Home Projector. I like to call it “my little cinema”. If you’re a smart shopper, you can grab it for roughly US$650 online and my fellow Droogs, it’s the best present you can give to your eyeballs, outside of a brand new nano-eye. Being a smart shopper is key, as this bastard costs US$700 on Epson’s online store.
