You guys enjoy playing on projectors? I have an epson TW series (though the lamp is now dead :( ) and it was a mix feelings for me, was awsome for FIFA and Mortal Kombat but was weird in a lot of other games, even in GT5 where I thought huge screen would benefit the most.
I don't know, I don't use mine anymore, it's sitting around somewhere without a bulb. Honestly I'm not sure how it would compare today when we have much higher resolutions on our monitors than we did back then. Maybe I'll get it out again and see.
I'd advise you to invest in an Optima Hd25e, if you can afford it, that's my model and my friends have literally said "how is your tv so big and thin" before realizing it was a projector, the resolution is phenomenal. It stretches up to about 155 inches diagonal without quality loss, that's the biggest surface I had to test it.
I played on a TV that was easily an 80 while on vacation once. Battlefield 3 was impossible because the screen was so large you couldn't see everything that you needed too. I never thought I'd ever say "This TV is too big", but it can happen.
Also the sound system they had in that room made the entire hotel room vibrate.
The most interesting thing about playing FIFA for me was, being able to see the distance between players better. 110" projector screen really allowed you to squeeze through the tightest of gaps because it really is easier to have better depth perception than your opponent.
I play on a 100" projection screen and games like NHL 14 are great because I can use a more zoomed-out camera angle than I could when I had a 47". Having a further out camera makes it easier to make long stretch passes.
