It seems a little small for an actual entertainment room, since you couldn't comfortably fit more than 5 people in there. It seems fine for a few friends or a girl to come over, but when I think entertainment room, I think of a room thats about 30x30 or larger with a huge couch or array of recliners and thousands of dollars in audio.

You don't have to afford anything more than you have, but just call it a "den" :)

It's not missing stuff, it's got too much "stuff". What you need to add is furniture to store and hide the clutter. Make use of wall space to store things behind cabinet doors. That will free up floor space. Hide the PC in a roll top desk, or other type to hide it when not in use.

I den's gotta have sports trophies. You need a long wooden shelf mounted head-height on the wall, with sports trophies on it. And maybe a beer stein or other manly decorations. Also, you must have a mounted fish or deer head or other animal that you bagged yourself on the wall. This is manadatory for a real man's den. A gun rack or cabinet is good, too.

You need a real man's chair, too. Leather, preferably. but at least a big recliner. Its gotta be big. If it's not a recliner, then you gotta have an ottoman to rest your feet on. That chair you have looks like you stole it from a hairdresser in San Francisco.

Good luck.
