Is the TK700 good for gaming?

Yes. It accepts high-frame-rate 1080p signals and has low input lag, which suits consoles. It also takes 4K HDR sources for slower games and movies.

Does it need a dark room?

It performs best with some light control. A lamp projector at this level washes out in bright daylight, so curtains or blinds help.

Not on its own. It has no Wi-Fi or apps, so you need a streaming stick or box plugged into one of its HDMI ports.

BenQ rates the lamp at about 4,000 hours in eco mode. Normal mode shortens that, and a replacement lamp is a running cost to plan for.

Yes, it is 3D capable. You still need compatible 3D glasses and a 3D source.

Expect the projector, a remote control, a power cable and a quick start guide. HDMI and other cables are usually not included.
