That would be awesome. I heard you can also play TO with game controllers.

Yes I have a LG 36 inch TV in my bedroom and it does look real life and awesome to play Tanki on it.

Get an hdmi cord that is 2 or 3 meters long, plug it into your laptop and than into your tv.. Hope you Mac hAs this port

was looking at a macbook this afternoon

you use the thunderbolt connection

and apparently apple do a thunderbolt to hdmi  adapter so this allows you to connect to your

tv and has sound as well

 

think this is the way for me to go

cant wait to see it in action

 

on a 60 inch screen i might even be able to hit something with my shaft now lol

i suggest buying a windows laptop for gaming. you have like a six times more powerful pc whit the same price, and a same-hardware one for muuuuch less. to play tanki whit max settings in full hd resolution and whit 30+ fps i suggest using a dedicated gpu that the macs dont have. buy something that haves a intel processor (pentium, i3, i5...) atleast 4 gigs of ram and a intel or nvidia card.  you should be done for like 300-400 bucks.

Seems interesting.. I will try this soon.

I've tried it on the big screen, quite a bit of lag though.

[Superlative 500]

It is possible.

Perhaps your net.

Connecting your laptop to your tv is a great idea, however:

 

you will need to find out what kind of tv adapter cable your computer has (example: mine is an HDMI port) then you need to find out which kind of input port your tv has, you might need to buy a converter.

 

HOWEVER: you will need to except lower FPS/delays

Used it on my 70" flat screen HD! Was a totally beautiful experience!!! :D

[DonCarnage 1,270]

 

You can play on the screen 60 inches, etc.,

 

Good luck!

Plug it in to the t.v and turn on antialasing, should run smoothly
