There's a couple things that bother me, for one the people running around under it seem un-phased....

I mean seriously if someone was playing video games on the largest screen in the world, i would stop practicing and look up for a moment.

2nd, it almost seems a bit fake, like it was edited in to the spot where the screen sits.

The clapper was total bs too.

Cool i guess.

I find it hard to believe there's no lag, screen tearing, artifacts from how much the image is being upscaled...

...but on the other hand, the idea is cool so I'm down.

I agree, the whole time watching I couldnt help but notice everything that seemed wrong with the segment. To me, the game image seemed imposed onto the screen, even if it were not, the lag would be unplayable. One thing that really stood out to me, is that I am pretty sure that Street Fighter II HDR is not available on ps4, and they were clearly using a PS4 controller.

It did definitely look "fake" to me as well, with the image looking as if it was imposed on the screen. However it could be possible that they did that simply to make the image look clear. If he was actually playing on that big screen then recording it off screen for those wide shots would leave the image looking blurry and tilted in a way that would make it hard to see. He could have indeed actually been playing those games and then they slapped a clearer version of the gameplay over the screen so viewers would be able to clearly see everything.
I feel old when talking to anyone my age yet too inexperienced to effectively talk to anyone older. Life is grand that way.

PS4 Controllers are fully compatible with PS3 console.

Who cares if it was real; it was entertaining. Do you guys watch television expecting to see anything real?

I believe this is only true if the controller is plugged into the console via USB.
