You must login or register to view this content.

I used to have a HDPVR but it was getting very complicated with all the wires and it was just taking too much space. So recently I heard about this product called an Elgato Game Capture and I had to try it out.


PROS:

1. Records Full 1080p
2. Very Small and only 2-3 wires
3. In-software video editing
4. Apple TV and iPads can be connected
5. Very Sexy Name


CONS:

1. A Good Computer/Laptop

Elgato is very easy to setup and very useful, let's say you forgot to click record and then got an insane clip. Don't worry with an Elgato you can get your footage back without recording, that is one great reason why you should choose an Elgato over other capture cards.

Elgato also allows you to tag your videos so when its uploaded to YouTube you don't have problems, it also has a feature which shares your video to multiple social media websites such as Twitter and Facebook.


Here is the screenshot of their software

So if you are having a hard-time between choosing a capture card, i would say Elgato is a way to go. It's about the same price as HDPVR, much easier to setup, a better editing and video capturing software, not excessive wires and a small device which can be carried in your pocket.


They sent me two devices, so I will be doing a giveaway for you guys soon. Enjoy

nice thanks for the review

So if I have a PVR then there is no point in me getting this?

Cheaper than a Huppage, simpler to use, less hassle, it's own video editing software...sounds too good to be true, but then again might be just what I'm looking for.

but you cant do hdmi on ps3 with the hdpvr 2 either no device can.. ps3 made it like that you can do it on the fat ps3 with elgato but not slim or else they would get sued.. other then that hdpvr 2 is still big does not have playback if you forgot to hit record and has still a lot of wires
