Tv + Runescape ?!?!

[Teh Ranger]

Well I was just browsing the internet and stumbled upon this :O

http://www.google.com/tv/index.html

Has anyone played Runescape like this?

If so explained how was it?

Sony Internet TV is a trademark of Sony, Inc. Screen images simulated.

um okay...?

 

[Teh Ranger]

um okay...?

Lol yes for the Advertisement you saw there simulated.

Anyone ever try this with their tv?

 

[KerokeroCola]

Yes, I've played PC games on a TV before (it's called a DVI to HDMI cable, they're fairly common...), and that's what it seems Google is trying to do with this new gadget, just make it dumber and more user-friendly.

 

[WeRnIE]

Yep, if you have a new TV, you can do this.

 

[davidh93]

yea its not that hard, if u tv has a vga input connect vga to vga. If it has a hdmi input, get a vga to hdmi cable. Your tv has to fairly new to do this

 

[Innuendo]

This is not really new. It's just big companies have the money to make everyone over-hype about their products. Such as a iPad - PC Touchscreen Tablets are not new at all but according to Apple it is a "revolution" ^_^

hdmi cable = awesome?

This would be cool if I had a TV.

As it is I just watch shows on my computer while playing Runescape. Does that count?

 

[Tenko]

Would be nice to have this, but I don't have a HD TV where my laptop is, and why would I want a huge bot on screen?

HDmi ftw.

Lol, whatever works for you! I would probably do the same, but my parents got me my own tv.

I got a 30" 2560 x 1600 monitor so I don't need a TV

I got a 30" 2560 x 1600 monitor so I don't need a TV

you know it starts to become pointless to get larger screens from 30" lol. unless your into CoD, your better off buying a TV with vga/HDmi input instead of investing in a gaming monitor [massive price difference, expensive being the gaming monitor]

ionno, big tvs are pretty nice
i just got a 42" 1080p in my room, ps3 and 360 look amazing with bigger screens.
if you play games you really should just save up the couple hundred bucks and get yourself a proper tv, dont skimp on smaller ones, 720, or used crappy box tvs :\
trust me, you will notice the difference after having one

 

[elecktar]

I can do it full HD lol, but no need to my desk is to small also haha

 

[cotonpk3r]

I've played scape on a 42" LG LED tv
you can hook it to a computer with a regular VGA cable and use it like a monitor

It was cool, kinda dumb having the gamescreen that large tho :\

 

[squedbob]

i have a 42inch in my room which i play runescape,sky,xbox 360 and my tv on gtta luv it

 

[AshleyAne]

Hook up your computer to your TV and BAM!

But yes, I use my tv for a monitor all the time.

 

[SkT]

Wouldn't that mess up the screen with your inventory staying the same?

 

[Sanctuary]

I wouldn't mind trying it out on my 50" tv.
