    I'm wondering if it's possible to connect my PS3 to display on my laptop, or will it only output?

    Are there any methods to display on the laptop screen? Thanks.

    it is, but if you REALLY need to you can use a USB video capture unit and input through it, there WILL be some lag though.

    Hi I looked into this and can anyone suggest a TV tuner card or whatever they are that can input HDMI?

    Thanks... I've had no luck so far..

    edit: also what is lag/delay from? My Laptop is 5920g and so far can play HD content with no problem at all. I wish to run the PS3 at 720p

    Get your self a LCD monitor (for 100$) or LCD TV (more expensive) and you`ll use PS3 @ 720p...
