    is it bad that i would prefer a smaller screen for gaming, when im on my 37" im decent and first person shooters, when im on my 50 i can never even get a kill, and when im on my 22 i own the game

    i would of thought being bigger i'd be able to see my enemies better but i have to look all over the screen for them
