Now I have a budget cinema next to me and one of the guys I was chatting with mentioned he tried using an xbone on of the projectors. It wasn't as great just because the size alone made it so hard to keep track of all the action going on, but I keep thinking to myself this would be a pretty neat thing to try out if given the opportunity. Now has anyone experienced doing this and does anyone know if it's possible to set something of a scheduled game session without having to rent a screen for it? |

Get 3-5 inches from your tv screen. There, you've just experienced it. That is, unless you sit in the back, but at that point the relative size of the screen is about the same to your eye as if you were sitting at home watching tv. Galaxian theatre might work though.... but good luck finding a hi-res port of it. |

You've got to remember a movie theatre has a huge screen and you can only output, at best, 1080p on a game console. |

I haven't ever gamed in a proper theater, but I used to on my old HT setup (projector + ~100 inch screen). It's admittedly pretty awesome to have a giant wall's worth of video game in front of you. And despite what Howard may say, there is a perceptible difference between using a large HT screen versus merely sitting closer to one's TV (unless one has zero depth perception). |
