You can do what id do and make a box out of wood and stain it that sits over the top the the OHP and looks great in the living room or where ever it goes
Then you have a small wooden window that slides across to let the projector show the image and you can rest your drinks ontop of the projector.
Now if you actually spend the right amount of time on the box it would look great and look like a cool table next to the chairs but your wont think it's a projector.
Plus it won't be to big for your room or where ever cause it will fit in place
Does this make sense?
Anyway playing games on this thing ROCKS
I just played n64 (smash bro's) on it and OMFG it looks soooooooooooo good

oh yeah there is cheap ways to do it but the OHP is the cheapest quickest and fastest way to get it up and running 
it only takes 5mins to setup after u popped the LCD out of the case and placed it on the projector it's ready to run.
Of course it's better to spend some time making a frame like I did.
it's not pretty but it lets air flow between the screen and the glass so the screen doesn't get hot (a small fan is there to keep it cool)
Plus OHP are pretty common and can be brought for $20 and you can remove the light inside and add 2 normal 100w light bulbs so you got a projector that looks great and has very cheap bulbs to replace

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL... no... and yes every timei go to the rain forest i cant find my gold, where is my gold? is my gold the only thing on my mind ofcourse not but its vary important for me to find. I'm not a greedy fella i just need to get a hold of my gold to by back my friend. he was taken in order to sell the part of an areoplane to sir fank1112 but was unable to sell it in time. so now frank keeps my firend (james) up in his castle for sale to any one who can pay him off and settle the areoplane debt. so here is me stuck inthis forest looking for my gold.. where is it? all i can see is trees and sticks and leaves and all kinds of crap, i figure maby i sould try and find out where i am in relation to the forest.. how close am I to the edge of the trees? I cant see any clearings just more and more woods. maby i'm dead center if i am this forest is only a few hundred yards across and i sould beable to walk from the center out in no time at all. maby i sould explane how i got in to the center of this forest with out the gold i colected. well a few hours ago i finished looking for my gold in a cavern in the large end of the island with out any light i found my self in a hole with my gold scaterd around me (not at all in my gold sack) after i cleaverly coaxed some bioeluinecant clams in to a ball i was able to make a decent light to find my bounty. i climed up out of the hole with clams in one hand and gold in the other when i was hurled my an angry cave dweller strate out to the sky, blinded by the light I and the clams where unable to see where we were going aand with out any wings it would have been hard to chage that problem. wile the clams and i fell we started to discus some fine points of landing. "well what are we to do clams?" the clam ball spun next to me in its free fall "i think the best soulution here is to hope for the best" they said all at once like any hord of shell fish "but if you where to land of some thing that could break your fall then you could probly make it out of this with only a few broken bones" they continued "but what about you?" i asked "well we are a bunch of clams going about 1200 kelometers an hour at an altiude of 100 meters and rising, I'm sure we can think of some thing before the decent" they mentioned optimisticly "well if we have that much time i'm sure you and I ca think of some thing what do we have on us?" "well you have that sack of gold, And that big coat full of hydrogen tanks" the clams added "k so what can we do?" after thinking about it some more the ground we where sailing across hit us pritty bad.. "clams... Clams!!!??! where are you guys???" i called out still blind from the suden sky. "here!" one called out "where are we?" an other called out. "whats going on?" i asked "well I'm cracked in half and so are a lot of us... its pritty bad really". "well where am i? i cant see..." i asked "your on a huge bears belly... when you hit him you knocked the wind out of him but when we hit him we got him right in the head, so hes pritty dead..." the clams explamed "oh so I'm fine?" i went on asking.. "yeah yeah just get up strech or some thing.. and then look for your gold and hydrogen tanks and you sould be on you way." they said encourgingly. "thats it? we get tossed out of a cave at high volocity and altiude and al that happens to me is a little bit of ajusting to the light... this is pritty hard to beleave".. "HEY! we didnt get out of here just fine like you did most of us are busted in half.. i'm sure more that a third of us are dead.. just to save you from that bear you pissed off." they shot back "ok theres no way you could have seen that bear comming so quickly or that you could have moved to knock him out, that was all of a qoincidance.." i told them sternly. "well... maby we wiggled a little!" the clams exclamed. "well since my eye sight is comming back i think i'll take a walk, with all my limbs!" i sad in retort.. "have fun!".
Any ways thats how i got to this forest.. I'm asuming that its not a bi one because the entrance of the cave faced a little vally and then it headed strate to the water. so i sould beable to head west and make it right back to the beach.. to bad i wont have any gold. "hey cennar!" a voice called out "what who are you?" i returned "its me a clam... hows the search for that gold going?" he asked "no to good i droped it in the fall" well i just happened to be resting on it, that bag of rocks saved my life you know!"
so the clam and i with our gold headed of to find our missing friend..
