I'll bring along a crt so people can feel the differnece between lag and no lag.

Does anyone have av cables for the xbox?

I've said it before, and no doubt I'll say it again.

Buy a shit LCD monitor and get shit performance.

There is no fundamental reason why LCD monitors HAVE to have lag, and if you actually do some looking it's not hard to find 0 frame input delay lcd monitors. Just because some places have shit monitors/tvs doesn't mean that LCDs are shit, just the places.

CRT can diaf.

Yeah that's fine, I know there are supposed to be lagless LCD's but from all the LCD screen's that I have played on at different events and gatherings not one has felt lag free like a decent crt does. Look even the EVO monitor has been proven to have a little bit of lag http://www.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=174085&p=8300756&viewfull=1#post8300756 and they spent months trying to find something before they found that thing. The only proven way to make an  LCD lag 100% free is using the HD fury and thats assuming you have a very good monitor already.

Oh and buying a good lcd generally results in lag more so than a shit one. More post processing and the likes are added to make the good ones stand out in the showrooms/displays/whatever.

I really don't think its a matter of the price for LCD but more of how it was made?
I mean how people here knows what is a good LCD spec for a PS3 and what is not? personally I don't.

You make the classic mistake of assuming what 'good' means.

sorry to have english as my second language, care to explain?

I'm no guru but my cheap VW24H 24' assus monitor is doing really well with my PS3. I am sharing my experience rather than just, talk.

Get Ben to come around with his crt and SHOW you the difference.

Well Giga has a projector. So I don't see the harm in using Ben's CRT and projecting it on the projector for everyone else to see.

I dont see the harm in you shutting-the-hell-up mason.

No idea why i said that. Just seemed like a good time to.

But seriously, yea, no harm in that imo. Then we can chill on the couches instead of breaking the plastic chairs.

>_>


<_<


I mean, taking good care of the plastic chairs.

Ok this has turned into a pretty dumb discussion but thats what happens on NZism. Partly my fault but whatever

The real problem is that the LCD tv's at giga lag and aren't acceptable for any serious tournament IMO. I have no problem playing on lcds that have been proven to be lag free or somewhat close to it (1-2 frames of lag) but anything else is a joke in all honesty. I keep rambling on about CRT's only because they are known to be lag free and are very easy to get a hold of. So yeah either the people who organise event's will start using better equipment or I'm just gona keep on complaining about it because I actually care more about the quality of play rather than how nice the graphics look.

Well you don't need to look at me for that one. Obviously lag is something that needs to be avoided, there are other ways than resorting to CRTs though.

As for the 'on nzism' remark, yeah, I'm getting pretty pissed off with everything here at the moment. Tempted to delete everything and you can all work shit out by yourselves. Fuck this community tbh, I'd rather deal with the tekken guys.

Stink bro, I never say anything negative on here and I don't think a lot of others do either. Would hate to lose this place as nothing would ever get organised without it.

What exactly has been so bad lately? I actually view this as one of the better forums I go to. Would really suck for me as I don't/can't play Tekken so a Tekken forum is no use to me.

I've barely been to Shoryuken etc lately becasue NZism covers most of my needs.
