Well at this point I still haven't located a 360, although it is only a matter of time. Until then this discussion is all academic, but...
I'm just wondering what I will see when I play 360 games on my current 27 inch flat Sony WEGA that is standard definition. Obvioulsy I know it will not be as good, although someday I will have an HDTV (as soon as prices are low enough). I assume by next Christmas, or hopefully earlier the 30-40 inch HDTVs will be in my price range. If I were willing to buy a CRT HDTV then I could probably get one now, but I want my next purchase to not only be HD but also flat panel.
In any case, I am wondering if I could afford a smaller HDTV, say a 23 inch or so, do you think that would be preferable to a largeryet non-HDTV like the 27 inch I mentioned above?
A 23 inch screen, especially since it is widescreen will seem much smaller than my current TV, especially when viewing regular TV at 4:3 aspect ratio. Maybe I sould save my money til I can afford the 30-40 inch HD, and in the mean time maybe my current 27 inch will be sufficient.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
