Projectors are not ideal for gaming use. The lamp on the projector only have a 2,000 hours of use and then you have to replace them. The cost of each lamp can start at $50 to $300. Beside that you also need a dark room for a projector and a projector screen. Projector in the 1080P are more expensive than buying a tv with a rated 60,000 hours of use. Go online to Home Theater Magazine and read the reviews on projectors. If you pick up a copy of the magazine it will list projectors they recommend from the entry level to the high end. I use a Panasonic projector for watching blu ray disc movies in my home theater and it was purchased at the price of $3,499. The new model 4000 is now listed at $2,995. Keep in mind, you get what you pay for. Hope this will help you out.
