Do you play in High Def?

[bingo83]

Just a quick straw poll to see how many members actually play in High Def.

[phatmuther]

yep through my 21"monitor and my projector, though you could say its not *true* HD i would argue someone to tell the difference between it and and my monitor :)

i take it you do bingo?

[backin-strachan]

Not yet. Im bribing the folks to get one for my B/d :D

[BluMind]

same as above for me..i'll probably get a 28" hd ready tv from panasonic or something like that..right now it's just a normal widescreen tv. And tonight im ordering a huge pizza and gonna play on COD on live..wee

[SNK]

Oh hell yeah! Woho!

[mjmaskrey]

32" Samsung HD LCD all the way...although sometimes I get relegated to playing on my VGA monitor.

:)

[AfroJoe]

Nope, near enough, though. On an 18" Samsung PC monitor, which is about as close to HD quality as you can get without actually being there. :D

[Mez]

46" HD Samsung LCD. Sex on a stick!

[Killer 57]

Sadly no.............................

[Raisedbyflames]

on my 32" lcdtv i dont play in a hd standard but my resolution = 1360 x 768

[AK.]

i used to until my dad got tird of me hogging the tv...everyday lol ahhh the memories, now im just on a regular tv in my bedroom :(

[glidem]

32" Samsung HD LCD is just so much better than Standard Definition! Even Xbox Live Arcade games look amazing compared.

Same here. It just doesn't seem right playing on a standard tv anymore!

[glidem]

I think if you have a nomal TV, NEVER look at someone elses HDTV screen, you will be left feeling very empty when you go home :)

(Y) How very true that statement is.

it actually hurts my eyes to play it on a normal tv these days :|

[Raisedbyflames]

my old tv was shocking for playing games on it had one of them autop resize features and the original remote for the tv was broken so you couldnt play some games because it would auto size. one thing that has annoyed me about my hdtv is that my gamecube looks **** on it

[Mister TMP]

No:'( I have to play on a 15" standard TV It's just too small

[phatmuther]

00oooooooo ouch! ;)

[bingo83]

No:'( I have to play on a 15" standard TV It's just too small

With most games in widescreen as well, that would be really small. Luckily I invested in a 45inch high def screen :)

[backin-strachan]

No:'( I have to play on a 15" standard TV It's just too small
Woah sorry to hear mate. Im on a SD 26" till I gett a 28" LCD HD:)

Good exams may speed up the process

[Outlaw]

im afraid i currently play (Note The Word Currently) on a 21" SD television which is pretty grim.

[JJBDude]

Bit of both. I live at my mums 12 days every 2 weeks and I don't have High Definition there, however when I got to my dads for 2 days every 2 weeks I do.

[Blaze Lord]

I'm on my 19 inch computer monitor. So.. yeah, more than enough resolution. Just not enough playing in bed.

[Anders0n]

Yep, play the 360 on my brothers 26" JVC HD LCD. Lovely stuff.(Y)

[original efunk]

All of you guys that say you're "not quite" playing in high def because you're using a computer monitor... That IS high definition.

I'm playing on a 23" Apple Cinema display.

[Blaze Lord]

Yup. We know. But I think I'd rather play reclined in bed than at my desk.

[matti_rawks]

50" sony HD

deezzzz nuts!

[RiLu@]

I have a 32" Samsung, great stuff!

[Chuck]

im on a monitor but damb i wish i had a hd widescreen

[Killer 57]

Man I want a 32" Samsung there is a small and I mean Small possibility that might get one this year. of course you guys could help me out, my PayPal e-mail is Iwantyourmoney@Please.com

[WACCOE]

No, I don't. Wish I did.

Looks good m8, hi def makes everything look the mutts nutts.

[backin-strachan]

Any more news on that HD CRT Samsung at about £500. I might be inclined to go for that:)

[bingo83]

Just so happens that I do have some info.

Available from Comet (http://www.comet.co.uk/comet/html/cache/453_324140.html)

[backin-strachan]

Now who else would tell me :D

Now theres a price that looks so good I might not be able to refuse.

[phatmuther]

nice stuff (Y) nice and cheap

[WACCOE]

That TV is sooo tempting. Especailly as I just put 250 away yesterday. :unsure:

[padds78]

Thats a really nice set. I need to get hi-def

I can only dream :(

Another Nice and Cheap 32 Inch High Def Set (http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?nov-q321)

[HotFish]

I use an old 42'' Plasma that has no HD Ready but has a DVI (which is HD! though the old HDMI standard connection until companies gathered together to make a new standard and rip us all of! so my mate says who runs a Currys bratch, hence my cheap goodies). So i connect through VGA (Joytech's) which actually looks better than my new LCD Sony Bravia that has HD components.

Personally i think connecting through VGA is the best and HD is just the new TV for it. I play in 1024 x 768 as it doesn't flicker and hurt my eye's.

Cya's

[copernicus]

I play in HD and it's great.

The game I get the best benifit from it is GRAW

[D4VY]

i dont see much point in spending £1000 pounds on a TV to see a nice shiny blade of grass. ;)

[dikiminster]

Another Nice and Cheap 32 Inch High Def Set (http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?nov-q321)Yeh, novatech is an awesome shop. Just up the road from me, too. Im thinking of picking up their 27 incher....ooer missus.:$

[bingo83]

Novatech and Aria are usually bang on. I get their weekly newsletter by email and there is generally an amazing bargain to be had each week.

[Steve]

90'' Dual Plasma HD LG screen for me. The only way to go in my opinion.

You mean HD? when i get my own 360, I'm thinking about connecting it up to my Mac monitor which is HD.

[Ryan]

not quite yet :(

[dikiminster]

Sounded a bit tooo good to be true. Although, that would be so cool. Wouldnt quite fit on my desk though.;) I suppose you could allways use an HD projector. Going for like 500 notes some of em.:party:

it might be 102" wide 8-)
it might not :D

[dikiminster]

Mmmm. You could be lying....but ill take your word for it!:D

[PaleRegan]

I wish I had high definition, I am on a 20" CRT from 10 years ago, but saving up for a cheap HDTV from Best Buy. There is an interesting article about HD in this months EGM about how people should wait to buy an HDTV.

[phatmuther]

[WACCOE]

That is probably the coolest things ever! To be fair.

[Daniel 89]

Is it a good idea to connect my 360 up to my hd mac monitor? it would be cool but the downside is everytime I want to use my mac I'll have to disconnect my 360.

[WACCOE]

Erm, it depends. I know the HD Mac monitors are really good, so possibly. I would have a try on that, then do it on your normal TV, and see which you prefer.

I am thinking about connecting mine to my regular PC monitor. :)

[dikiminster]

I bought a cheapass flat monitor (crt) off ebay for 50 quid, which sits next to my pc monitor. Add a network card for a tenner and I can be on both at once.(Y)

[PublicEnemy#1]

if ya buy a pc off dell most of there monitors are hd, infact if ya buy them from any were

I would get it hooked up to your TV, so you can be on both at once and yuo don't have to iddle about with wires. :D

But then again, HD > Bogstandard, so it's a toughie

[phatmuther]

all new monitors are HD
anything that can do 1024x720 resolution is HD (Y)
so any montior is a little HD screen

with the apple cinema display you could buy a KVM switch and switch between imputs

Yeah, having it on my tv would be less hassle, wouldn't have to buy any special cables then.

[phatmuther]

i see your point ;)

[Steve]
