So you've just bought a PlayStation 4 (the year's now 2012 by the way), and are ripping into it, preparing to get it set up in the middle of your living room, the crown jewel of your new home entertainment setup. But wait, your living room is empty! Someone must've robbed you while you were out getting your PS4 (you probably left the door unlocked, what were you thinking?).

What's a gamer to do? Well if you were in the market for a new home entertainment setup and had oodles of dough to throw at it (and when it comes to maximizing your gaming pleasure, money is surely no object, right?), these would be the key components to complete your home entertainment set.

Television - Pioneer Elite Pro 151FD 60" Plasma HDTV 1080p - $6,500

For unmatched picture quality, and even more important for gaming, unrivalled black levels, this model is one of the best money can buy. For me, the television is probably the most important aspect of the gaming experience, so if you're going to splurge on any one facet of it, this would be it. This TV will make games come alive in ways you couldn't possibly imagine, instantly sucking you into the action. You may catch yourself just staring at the screen with a slack-jawed gaze at times, forgetting in your stupor to hit the buttons on your controller. A thing of beauty.

Chair - Repose E1000 - Sub-Sonic Bone Rattler Video Game Chair - $450

Despite frequent lengthy gaming sessions, I'm not terribly picky when it comes to what I'm sitting on. Be it an old rocking chair, a comfy couch, or the hard, cold floor, I manage to get absorbed into the game and forget about my surroundings, including potential a sore rump. However if comfort while gaming is important to you, this chair is one to consider. Not only does it redefine excessive comfort, it also boasts two built-in speakers and a subwoofer for increased sound. Built-in cup holders are perfect for those gamers who get thirsty while storming the beaches of Normandy or hitting towering homeruns. You can even link multiple chairs together for insane gaming sessions with friends.

Speakers - Klipsch Reference Series RF-83 Home Theater Speaker System - $7,000

There's nothing quite like massive explosions booming from ginormous speakers (at least in sound if not size), in full surround sound glory. As a lover of both game music and loud explosions, this is the perfect system for thunderous and sublime sound. This set comes packed with a full 5-speaker surround sound setup and a subwoofer with 800 watt amp. Just don't forget to turn it down when you're about to get blasted by some bad voice acting. That could cause scars that will never heal.

Gadgets

For all the Guitar Heroes out there (just about everyone), one of the must-have gadgets for the PS4 will be the newest Guitar Hero guitar controller. There's simply no better way to play these addictive games than to actually rock out with a faux guitar in your hands. Combined with your rocking speaker system, it will make for one heck of an experience (or make your ears bleed if you stink).

PS4 Console

Of course Japan gets all the really cool stuff that never seems to find its way to other parts of the world, and their penchant for coming out with killer, unique consoles makes me most envious of all. They recently got a stylish, black Final Fantasy 7 branded console with an awesome logo on the front to coincide with the re-release of the FF7 animated movie, Advent Children. If you're really feeling adventurous, import yourself a specially designed PS4 console from Japan to complete your PS4 gaming collection and entertainment setup like none other.

Turtle Beach Ear Force W3

In the event you're unable to blast your above sound system due to someone sleeping, working, what have you, these stylish headphones will help you keep the volume pumped, while expertly keeping out any unwanted noises. The W3 of course isn't designed with the PlayStation 4 in mind, but thanks to universal connectivity, would have no problems doing so. Just remember, throwing your controllers around, and cursing up a storm because you just got pwned in Call of Duty 6 could wake the baby too, so try to keep your antics to a minimum.

Of course by the time the PlayStation 4 hits stores, some of these killer items will likely be supplanted by newer and more awe inspiring pieces of gaming technology goodness. Keep your eyes peeled for the latest in hot electronics and gadgets to keep your gaming room up to date and the envy of the neighbourhood. Just don't forget to lock your doors when you go out (again).
