Games People Play Games People Play is where to discuss personal computer, video game console, and arcade hardware and software - be it RPG, Sim, Strategy, Fighting, Action/Platform, or any other category. Although discussion of modern platforms/software will most likely dominate, discussion of classic videogame/computer hardware and software is always enjoyable, and certainly welcome - ESPECIALLY since there are public domain/shareware emulators of nearly every older computer/console available these days. Here's a taste of what awaits you: Nintendo-vs-Sega-vs-Sony, Console-vs-PC-vs-Mac, Hardware spec sheets/information, Industry news and discussion, Software reviews, IRC conference announcements/Reports, Emulators, Emulators, Emulators! ... and much, much more!

Default Guitar Hero: World Tour Lag

So I recently bought Guitar Hero World Tour, and I've played it on 3 TV's. My mates 2 TV's and mine. The difference is mine is a HDTV and the game gets lag from time to time whereas on their TV's it doesn't. I've tried the Lag Calibrator thing, but it doesn't actually lag while I'm doing the test therefore it sets it at 0 ms (don't know what that means).

It's a Sony Bravia HDTV. Anyone having the same problem? If so, what would be the approximate ms to set it at?

MiliSeconds. Some older HDTV's lag the picture apparently. I don't know why the calibrating thing isn't working, try tapping the buttons in the amount of time you think it lags. Maybe if you fiddle with the digits you might be able to get something sorted.

Is there anything in the options menu on your TV that could help?

Go into a song, goto the options, and choose calibrate option. Start at 30 or so for both and work your way down until you find a comfortable number. It may seem like a lot of work but it really does make a difference.

I tried calibrating again, and instead staying at 0ms, it went to 102ms. It didn't lag but the timing was way out. So I lowered it to 52, there's a little bit of lag but it's pretty good.

Because when it lagged, it didn't actually effect gameplay. It just gave me the shits because it was so fucking annoying.
