Plug my (future)PS3 to my laptop

Hi, I'm getting a ps3 during summer and will also be moving from on campus next semester. I want to find a way to plug my console to my laptop as I will not buy a TV since my laptop is already equipped with a tv tuner... Any suggestions?

 

im confused as to what your asking, you have a tv tuner, so hwta more do you need.

and im sure there will be snarky dont gte ps3 comments, from someone, but pretty much they suck

 

What you want is something that has zero lag. TV tuners usually have enough lag to kill you on gaming.

Something like the GameBridge adapter might help you out . . . but you might not be able to find it or get it working under Vista. Not sure to be honest.

 

^like he said there is usually alot of lag, too bad the HDMI on laptops is never an input one

 

Yep ive been looking to change my monitor screen to accept input, nothing viable

Either way, the PS3 does not have built in VGA support, on the 360, its incredibly easy, you simply use one cable and youre off

 

Has anyone ever used the gamebrigde?

 

why a buy a ps3 and connect it to compisite cables. sort of like buying a ferrari and never going over 50 mph.

 

My uncle has a nice 1080p dlp tv so this is what I'll be playing on during summer and on every holydays, my problem now is how to do in the dorms. Do the gamebridge work with vista 64?

 

Yeah its in my bag right behind me, I keep it in there because never know what it will be good for.

 

I suppose you use it with your wii. Does it comes with drivers for vista, or I can find those on win update?

 

just get a 24" pc monitor and plug your laptop and everything into the monitor. dont try using the laptop. theese devices are not widely used and are not that reliable.

 

Those devices are dirt cheap, the 24" monitor is expensive and will be useless to me, and since space is at a premium, I don't want to uncumber myself with things that I will rarely use...
About the Vista driver problems I found the solution: I'll just use my win2k virtual machine in unbuntu .

 

alright its your choice. have fun playing ps3 games on a 15" screen with low quality cables and devices. somthing i would never step down to.

 

yup, I agree, I don't think you will find playing your PS3 on your laptop to be an enjoyable experience

Just get some good PC games to play on your laptop

 

Hell be getting a 720p image, and trust me, 24" screens arent cheap especially when youre a student and living out

 

I was in your exact situation, and I found it was better/easier/more convenient to buy a 19" widescreen monitor and a cheap pair of speakers. Serves me well.

 

you could use the money you save by not getting a PS3/Gamebridge and get a nice gaming laptop.

 

I got my ifl90 only 6 months ago, I'm not buying another one before at least 3 years. . And there is no way to play mgs4(and a bunch of other games on pc anyway ).
