That was one of my concerns as well as I experienced enough lag going from the small tv to the large one to effect my scores. It's not fun when you go 2-20 when you're used to being more like 18-12.

I would assume that it will be mostly depend on how fast your internet connection is.

As a game developer, I think Sony is heading in a good direction with the PS4. I think (and hope) that we will see alot of cross-games for the XBox One and PS4 considering the hardware is similar to each other (and similar to a PC).

As for lag, it could be the setup you have, do you run thru a receiver? Is your Large LCD have latency issues?
I ask because with these newer displays have some latency. For example, I have a Dell 30" (3008wfp) and there is a noticeable lag but I really only notice when I play First Person Shooters and I hardly play those these days (League of Legends and FFXIV are my current multiplayer games).
But large flat-panel displays and large LCDs for computer don't necessarily use the same technology, so maybe it is a different issue.

And ya, if the PS3 is playing thru a different connection at the two different displays, it could be the actual internet connection.

My internet connection is pretty solid. I usually test out in the 30's.

My router is good. Not great. It's the N600 not the 700.

TV wise... I'm running between the 47" vizio M series and a 32 inch Sony. Or maybe it's a 27. I'm borrowing it... until winter. Eventually I'm going to buy something in the 27-32 inch range that's a computer monitor/tv so I can hook my lap top up to it for work and the PS3 for play and just have it in my office.

so it looks like they only announced the vita TV to Japan so far, they have not said anything about the US or Europe release. Hopefully they release it in the states

Wish I had the nads to go into a crawlspace. Could really trick out my house and not use so much WiFi.

Wait til the temperatures drop. If you really want to do it I'll come help. I don't like it either but I'll help you out and crawl up in there. I've been tagged by 2 black widows in my life so I think I can survive a third... just start doing perimeter sprays now to decrease the chances.

I'll crawl up there and help you out.



On that note... you around this weekend? Feel like putting a door on and swapping fender braces. I can come to your place.

There normally wouldn't be any in the attic. They tend to stick to lower level areas where they can hide easily from what I've started noticing and talking to pest control people.

That said my attic is terribly designed to try to get into and I know I have rat crap up there. Wouldn't dare go up there without a full suit and breather mask with charcoal filters. But I would like to cause I would like to get a camera set up going and would want to install one outside the garage and that would be a straight shot.

hahah tell me about the heat...

Our attic access is in one of the spare bedrooms and its like a 2x3ft opening... stupid small.

So I decided to open up the wall above the garage/kitchen door as an access. I put down a bunch of plywood so now I have a bunch more storage in the attic

Got some pics of the DIY in this post:

My attic opening is in the master bedroom closet. The only low point of ceiling in the entire house except the garage. When you go up there, you can see straight to the garage. Everything else is difficult to get to. Every bedroom and room has 14 foot vaulted ceilings.
