I know it's actually been out for quite a while now, but for those of you interested here's a Eurogamer article on how the £200 mod actually works and performs. Looking at some of the Youtube videos made using it, it's actually pretty damn good!

Wow, that IS good. However the cost of it may be a bit prohibitive to some (casual) people. Still, progress is good. :)

I heard there is lag though, is this true?

Yeah, it's no good for actually streaming to a monitor, but the game still plays on the Vita screen simultaneously so it can be captured using Fraps without worrying about the lag.

I'm gonna wait for the PS4 before committing to something like this. If they're planning to heavily incorporate the Vita into the system it will be interesting to see if there is a method to record introduced further down the line through the console.
