AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!

I am going to start a new thread now, about how amazing HD is.

You bought the VGA cable?

You bought the VGA cable?

Yes, and HD visuals PISS ALL OVER normal TV.

The difference IS HUGE!!!

I couldn' t see it before, but whenI alt between the 2, you can tell that HD is far
ahead...


What' s the largest size monitor you can get flat screen/CRT and for how much?

How big is your current monitor?! What kind of budget are you talking?!

Not that big, but it' s hi def.. I say prob about 15 inches, but I wanted to get a 19
inch one...

Budget= between £200 and £300..

hold on, the first one is nicer and cheaper?

count me in, that is, if I was buying something.

I' ll prob get the 19" one as 360' s max resolution is less than 1440 x 900, if i
remember correctly. Ill order the Hewlett Packard one mid next week.

Now that I am all HD' d up to my balls.. I need a good sound system/speakers..

Any recommendations?

Majik, what does your TFT look like?

And for the meantime, what' s the best reso for a 15" monitor?

Majik, what does your TFT look like?

It doesn' t. I have a 23" CRT that i aquired a while back for design work. That' s what i' m using with my 360 right now.

I do have a 19" TFT but i use that for my PC.

And for the meantime, what' s the best reso for a 15" monitor?

I would guess 1366×768 (may show as 1360)

Test a few and see what gives you the correct aspect ratio.

Thanks for that.

Everyone, just for the record...

CoD2 is a MUST-HAVE epic game..

The campaign is one of the best I have seen in an FPS...

And Prey is messed up..

I already finished COD2 on my PC with 1024' 768 reso.

I been in HD i know how it looks like ffs
But low reso on PC looks horrible,but on a TV it doesn' t.

Btw my TFT' s max reso is 1280' 1024,its also its native,so i will have to use 1024' 768 i guess.

I have an Xbox360, but no HDTV, i' m playing my NES,N64,PsOne,Xbox, Xbox360 Consoles on an old Akai TV i think is older than me

HMMM wish i could afford a HD TV not much point for me as i will never pick up any HD signal

Any computer screen shows in HD.

This pictures are from HL2 at max with 1280' 1024,basically above 720p with a 360.
And yes this was from my PC,so if you find flaws blame my PC then...But still this is " HD" . that people think make each games magical.






For me Table Tennis and OB or even Graw looks better at 640' 480 reso on my STV.

Dude, i clicked on the top image to se how glorious Alex looks when rendered at max setting and my damn PC crashed.

:P she looks very good yes

I daren' t click on the others though. I don' t want to have to manually reboot again!

I love how i never took a pic of a enemy,but instead pic of her then and then.

WTf was i thinking,im very scary...wtf...like 20 pic of her :P
I need help.

Quez, go HERE and read the new on Assassin' s Creed. IDEF 2006 was the other day, and i can' t read French.

During the IDEF 2006, Ubisoft confirmed that Assassin creed is dev for xbox360 and pc also.More information can come laterr especially about a possible exclusive content or something for Sony' s machines(ps3).

Yepp its officially now ASSASSIN CREED is coming to 360.

yeah, the best way to hook ur 360 up to ur computers 5.1 speakers would be to get a high end sound blaster card with optical input. The VGA cord has an optical out, all of the 360 ones do. You just need an optical cable to connect it from that to your computer. That' s what I do with my SB audigy 2 platinum, I' m getting a x-fi platinum though, You don' t really need the fatality one it doesn' t really help with anything. Oh and with ur speakers if you wanna just use the head phone jack thing you might need to get a female to female adapter thingy to hook it directly into your speakers. But you could also just go on the input on ur sound card then output to the speakers. I' m kinda drunk so yeah. w00h yeah 4th of july w00t.
