Playing the Playstation 3 on a computer
Archive: 8 posts
Is there any way possible of playing the PS3 on a computer? (Preferably a MacBook) As in, using the MacBook for a screen like the TV... We only have one TV and the family are usually watching things on it, so I don't often get much time on the PS3... Even if there isn't yet a solution, does anyone think themselves capable of 'hacking' or making it work in some other way? Thanks! | 2010-06-20 10:13:00 Author: Weretigr Posts: 2105 |
i googled it, it appears that it is not possible. the macbook only has a output slot that can be used to connect it to a tv screen. of course, it is possible if you spend a lot of money on a variety of switches, adapters and other technical mumbo-jumbo. other things to do: 1: emulate ps3 on macbook, however, not even a macbook couldnt handle all that cpu. emulating an ps2 is however possible. 2: build one of these: http://benheck.com/10-01-2009/ps3-slim-laptop | 2010-06-20 11:09:00 Author: kiwin Posts: 218 |

you could try this http://easycap.co.uk/ The problemwith doing that however is once you get software up and running to show the video on you mac your going to suffer immense input lag. | 2010-06-20 17:56:00 Author: robotiod Posts: 2662 |
Windows rules. Nothing to do with the operating system or the maker. Only the inputs. | 2010-06-20 18:05:00 Author: Syroc Posts: 3193 |
