Connecting a PS3 to my Vaio

Hey, thanks for clicking my topic :grin:

Well, basically I'm having trouble finding out whether or not my Vaio can have a PS3 connected to it, so I can play on my laptop at Uni without having to buy a TV and paying the license fee.

I have asked other people, and I got a multitude of answers; none of which were the same. So, I decided to go to the place where people specialize in Vaios. I even tried just putting in the HDMI cable, but I didn't expect that to work so easily.

I have a Sony Vaio VGN-FW11E, and any tips or words of advice would be greatly appreciated :grin:

Also, to any passing moderators, if I am posting this topic in the wrong area, feel free to move it to the relevant area :grin:

The simple answer is no, sadly it can't do that, even if you did get a capture card, you would loose frames and gaming would feel delayed. You could probably sort that out with Guitar Hero, but with other games you couldn't.

Good luck with uni :wink:

Thanks for the swift reply :slight_smile: I figured as much...ah well. Delay wouldn't be good with a hectic game such as Killzone 2 :grin:

Now onto the second plan; see how bored I get in the first term, and see whether or not it is worth getting a TV just to play on my PS3 :tongue:
