I plan to get two pairs of M2tis to use with my PC for gaming (probably by the end of the year). It's all a matter of finances and new job stuff.
I have the M22tis for mains for music/movies and love them. So, I am hoping to have some of the same for Doom3, SW:G, and HL2(when it comes out).
I have also promised my younger brother a pair of M2tis when he moves out and gets his own place....

That's a great idea. I picked up a set of cheap 5.1 speakers last weekend for Doom3. Got home, carried the box down into the basement, looked at the M2s sitting on stands and thought "why am I doing this ?".
I installed the 5.1's anyways to get the positional audio from D3. I wasn't really all that impressed, although I guess I could spend a week moving THESE speakers around the room too to get the sound right
Based on my limited experience with an admittedly entry level set of speakers I think even a good stereo system would be better for D3 than spending the same money on cheaper 5.1 speakers.
Are you going to have a sub on the gaming system ? I haven't tried Doom3 without a sub but I think it would be even more important with D3 than on a music system.

Yes, I'll use a sub. I have the klipsch promedia 4.1. It pushes 50w at 4Ohms to each speaker and 200w to the sub. I tried using different speakers (old HTiB wharfdale speakers) to test it out and it works dandy. I'd rather go 5.1 but that would require more financial investment than I'd like (save that for the my HT or a new PC hardware).
So, once I get a new job (perm v contract) I'll be treating myself to a new pair of M2tis.

I also have the Klipsch 4.1 setup and I thought it was pretty damn good for gamming. Doom3 especially, this game is just way scarey when you got good sound and play it in a dark room.
