    Why ? The best experience is on a 20 inch monitor and a Tower computer with a bad ass video card. Im not sure if you can use the PS3 browser to play but try and then that way you can answer your own question. Also how would you install FLASH on a PS3 ?

    Let me know if it works Ill wait :)

    That's a good question, I have the Bing browser on Xbox 360 and it works very well on my 42 inch t.v. screen. I am sure they have implemented some type of flash file when you down load these browser apps on the game console. I will let you know when I have a chance to. That would be amazing to play this game on such a big screen but not sure how to use the console controls like a mouse.

     

    Happy golfing!

    Well Joseph one would have to think that the thumb analog stick either left or right would be the mouse movement . The up and down arrows should change the club or maybe it would just be a matter of pointing and clicking like we do on the PC now for WGT. X must be the click to hit . I have heard of people connecting via S video from their PC to their HDTV but I know this much... If your video card doesnt have the power to push FPS on a larger screen performance it will be miserable and the meter would be so jerky it would render an unplayable game.

    I have a mid class Nvidia card and I am sure it cannot push the resolution of my HDTV so I wont even attempt to play that way. Its funny because I have an old AGP slotted Radeon Pro with 256 MB and it would push the FPS just fine on my HDTV. At least it worked fine for Netflix not sure how it would perform for this game though.

    Maybe its time to fork up some dough for a top of the line Nvidia card if in fact it would run this game on a large HDTV . But personally I would need more justification for the wife to be able to add that expense to our budget at this time. Ill ask Santa this year for such a video card . I am sure his elves could manufacture me one straight away .

    Yeah I am now curious how it would look and run on an HDTV screen that is about 53 inches or so. My guess is the meter will be jerky and the greens harder to read making putting an adventure. Not to mention a huge meter that would take 10 seconds to run its course lol.

    Trial and error ! Post in this thread your findings for the inquiring minds.
