Something funny to consider. Happened to me this week.
When I first saw the game running before my eyes, it was on my friend's TV. I always told him his set wasn't properly calibrated, and that his games looked bland on it. Colors weren't poping out, brightness was too high making the dark areas look washed out, while the blacks were basically gray.
Basically, it made the game look bad.
A few days later, I finally got the game, and played it on my own TV. Which has been calibrated to meet the THX standard.
It was night and day. The game looks a lot more solid. And you get to appreciate the stellar graphic artistry of ND.
I know it seems like a no brainer, but most people don't have their TV or monitor properly calibrated (if at all), and you'd be surprised by the impact it has on the visual fidelity. Basically, most people don't play the game with the image set the way it was meant to be played by the developers.

Agreed. My friend's TVs look like horse shit.
