We stayed in 8016 a few months ago. You're right, it is hard to see the TV from the living room sofa. My son watched a DVD in there by turning the chair directly in front of the TV. Then we realized that the TV in the second bedroom had a built in DVD player on top. After that, my son just watched TV in his room. My DH and I watched in our bedroom. The living room TV didn't get a lot of use.
Also, there was no Playstation in our room (January 2006).
I have a large photo album of the suite. If you'd like to see it, PM your regular e-mail address to me and I'll send you the link.
