I've been playing on my trusty 47" LCD since closed beta but decided it was time for an upgrade. I went and picked up a 61" and proceeded to go 1-20 over the course of 2.5 matches.

Wait wait wait... you're telling me you DON'T play on huge panels? I've been doing this wrong all this time? Aside from have to turn my head to see the edges of the screen properly the 47" was fine. I just figured I would need to adjust to the size of the 60" or maybe move my seat back further. |

I'll be moving furniture around when I get home tonight. I have like 8' of space behind where everything is now. Everything just seemed too big and I couldn't get my kill circle on anything. |

I'm currently sitting around 8 feet from the TV and I have to turn my head and move my eyes and turn my head more than I'd like. I'll move everything back and sit 12' away to see how that works.
The TV does have a Game mode that I'll switch too, and I need to make sure the processing is off on the PS3s input.
Thanks for all the input guys. Hopefully I'll be able to kill all of you again later! =P |

Nerf Contrast Nerf Sharpness Nerf the ******* Backlight There are tons of study's on professional gaming Monitors and screens. Where to big is actually WORSE for how FPS games work. When the screen get's to big it forces you to move your eyes from one side to the other to take in all the information... Sometimes spacing yourself away from the TV at a certain distance can get rid of this... There is actually a calculation for Human eye field of view... So you can measure the distance you need to be away from the screen for your eyes to be able to take all the information in without having to move. But this is a well known fact in competitive FPS gamers. To big of a screen will ruin your instant reflex ability and ability to take all the information in. This is why you see alot of people play on 30-40' Computer monitors.. You generally get better performance for your buck and that is all the size of screen your eyes can take in without starting to have to move around. I Believe the max limit is 42' For the Human eye not having to move... I tried to link you the information but it's in a passworded hardware forum. Edit* People have got rid of the screen size caps.. By Building a concave screen setup http://origin.arstechnica.com/journals/thumbs.media/panoply.jpgOr the new monitors that they are starting to build.. http://www.maximumpc.com/files/u69/Curved_Display.jpg
I feel like I'm about to spend a LOT more money looking at that.

Medical Crash wrote:You want virtually no input lag? CRTs are known to be the best screens for gaming. The best CRTs ever made was by Sony, what you want is the last line they ever made, their "Super Fine Pitch" Trinitrons. They do not make these anymore, but they are very very good. After calibration it's better than a Pioneer Kuro Plasma. See if you can find one used. My set for example is 34XBR910, my god the picture and sound is amazing, sets a bit heavy though.
I sold TVs back when the Sony XBR CRTs were gaining popularity. Those things were gorgeous, but holy smokes were they heavy. I mean like... TV stand breaking heavy.

Few things you can try is messing with your TV settings IE the ones you mentioned. These games aren't meant to run in 1080p either, so if you can dumb down your resolution that will help as well. Alternatively you can just use your old TV if you still have it for gaming only now, that's what I do.
Old TV is in the bedroom now, and I'd get no sleep if I moved any gaming gear in there. |

less or more lag if you run the controller in wired mode?
I haven't noticed much difference. Plus I'd need a 15' USB cable to be able to sit on my couch |

Nerf Contrast Nerf Sharpness Nerf the ******* Backlight One reason why I hate gaming at my friend's house, he has a large TV. I game on and run my computer through the same 19" TV. It 's perfect for me because I prefer being literally up close to my TV for gaming.
Yeah, I play to unwind and that means sitting back on my couch. I moved the seat back 2 feet and I was able to aim again. |
