just to ask. Why would a 50Hrtz tv hurt your eyes?


When you turn the camera the motion isn't smooth and my eyes start hurting because they try to focus on the screen but it's impossible due to the jitteryness (is that a word?).

Ever look at a DIVX film? Whenever the camera moves horizontally it jutters. Its the exact same effect, right Grass?


Yeah!

But I don't think many would think it's a big deal when watching a DIVX because:

1) They usually watch on a small screen while I'm playing on a 40" so the jutters are bigger.

2) You don't try and focus as much when watching a movie. When I played MGS4 I was watching the screen like a hawk

I did notice the jutters when watching a Blu-Ray, but it didn't bother me nearly as much as during a heavy gaming session.

This is exactly why they tell you its 200htz preferable for watching sport on lcds and plasmas. Split second timing required.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
