So you're building up your man-cave, huh? Like Sam Adams beer, this is always a good decision: every slightly-educated human male is aware that a dedicated area of the home designed specifically for him is essential to a man's happiness.... as essential as poker, Sportscenter, and chicks in bikinis.
And while one of the man-caves specific purposes is to play the role of "Fortress of Solitude," it's also intended to be the ideal hang-out for you and all your other poker-playing, beer-drinking, Sportscenter-watching buddies.

The only problem? Each one of these poker-playing, beer-drinking, Sportscenter-watching buddies has a man-cave of their own. So you'll need the top game room decor and supplies in order to make your man-cave better than the rest.
First step: Television. BIG television. In those horrible years called the 90's, when a big-screen TV had a caboose the size of a Volkswagon, the options of where and how big your television would be were limited, and sometimes dictated, by the architecture of your room. With flat-screens the norm these days, you can hang a High-Definition screen almost any place.
No matter what goes on in your man-cave or what the situation, the activity in the room will always flow around the television. Picking the right one, as well as the right location for it, is brutally essential.
(On a different note, don't spring the extra dough for 3-D channels. Avatar might have been cool, but you and all your friends sitting in the basement wearing goofy glasses is not.)
Once you've got the television in place, you should probably add a couple gaming tables. The ideal one is poker, since it's a group activity. Ping pong tables, pinball machines, air hockey, foosball... all fun games, and certainly worth looking into. But Poker can encompass the largest amount of players at once, and isn't that the point?
While you're at it, pick up a custom poker chip set, some fancy new card decks, and any other poker table supplies you may need. The more professional your supplies, the more professional your game... and the more your friends will want to be included.
Folding chairs for the poker table is perfect. They're easy to move and adjust, which is important when there isn't enough room on your couch (Did we not mention the couch? Yeah, you're gonna need a couch. A BIG, comfy couch).
There's also the issue of art. After all, just because we are men, doesn't make us savages. We deserve a little bit of class, and some tasteful, tactful art on the wall can be just the thing.
Most guys will go straight for a centerfold cut-out of their favorite supermodel. This is a classic mistake. Remember, you're just a share-cropper.... using the bit of land generously given to you by the true Master of the Land (i.e. your wife or girlfriend). And "The Boss" may not be too happy seeing life-sized photos of gorgeous girls in tiny tops draped around the wall.
A good substitute when looking for 'art' to act as game room decor for your man-cave is signed sports memorabilia. Just putting up a pennant or poster seems childish. But if you've got an autograph on it, that not only ups the amount of class, it adds a conversation piece you can stick your chest out and boast about.... All while keeping the true Master happy.
Also, florescent signs from beer companies are always cool... but a little overused. That bright-green Heineken sign you've had since High School looked pretty sick in your dorm room, but now it's just too bright, too annoying, and too often seen in other places. Buy something original, won't you?
