I'm becoming convinced of HD gaming more and more

The other thought is to get a big HD monitor that I can plug the Xb360 into, like one of those 32 inch monitors, then I can at least say Im using it for my computer as well. =) We'll see what my options are like in the Spring. I imagine the prices will cool off a bit more by then

You can plug PCs into HD TVs.

So really it comes down to if you want a screen that has a tv receiver in it or not.

 

What I meant is that I could get a HD monitor and put it in my computer/studio room and leave my SDTV in the living room and let it continue to reign there. As for a TV receiver, def don't need that. Even my SDTV is used strictly for gaming, and maybe watching some Robot Chicken when I remember to. With a 360, I don't need to get up and move around like with the Wii, so I can chill and play from my computer chair.  Hmmm now Im thinking about a wall mounted computer monitor. Hotness.

 

Yeah you definitely need to upgrade your display. My TV finally died and I made the plunge  on my birthday to buy a decent HDTV. Even the Wii running at 480p looks better then running it SD. I always though that HD games looked good, just alot of the games they have thats all it is...looks.

...The cost of HD games didn't justify it to me. Right now the only thing that is making me think about purchasing an XB360 is that I wanna use it as a media center, and maybe Gears 2. Played Gears 1 and it wasn't bad, the tech flaws didn't hurt the game.
