If you don't have a HD set, or have one under 40", you might look into getting a Wii. If you have a larger set, the Wii graphics will be pretty disappointing (I know I'm going to get complaints about this one. Yes, I have a Wii. Yes, I have the component cables. I also watch SD channels, but it doesn't mean they don't look pretty lame compared to the HD channels.)


Because I have a LCD TV HD Ready (a Sony Bravia) and is only 26" I should just stick with my WII is what you're generally applying? WII GFX can look like crap on a smaller LCD TV as well.

Now we're asking questions I've got at first one of my own. My PS2 is dead, a Japanese version and since I'm planning to buy a PS3 from Japan anyway in the nearby future... I'd like to hear from you guys how are the upscale upgrades?


With regards to 720p Vs 1080p if your TV is less than 42" you shouldn't be able to tell the difference (unless you sit within 5' of it or have superman's eyes). A 26" HD screen will look better than a SD screen though. So a PS3/360 game wich is normally 720/1080p should look better than the Wii games , which are max 480p.

Upscaling DVD and enhanced audio on the PS3 are very nice but you should still notice a difference if you put in a BD r SACD (SACD depends on AMP). The only problem you might have is if your TV is an early 1080p model, in which case the PS3 might end up downscaling everything to 480p. I don't think the Bravia has this problem though.
