[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;35915237] Many people actually don't notice the difference in quality between standard and HD.[/QUOTE] To be honest, this is something that I simply can't get myself to understand. I've discussed it with a few of my buddies who tell me they can't tell the difference and I just have not been able to figure it out. From my viewpoint, the difference between SD and HD (with a good source anyway) really is a night/day difference. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

I'm simply surprised that you could afford two HD systems which, unless you got a killer deal, would set you back at least $600, but you don't have an HDTV to play them on when you could have gotten one for the price of one of those consoles. That's all I meant by it.

It looks playable, but not like it would be a whole lot of fun.[/QUOTE] And don't forget the HUD, it would either take up half the screen or be so small that it'd just blend together.
anyone remember dead rising on the 360 without an HDTV?

This shouldn't surprise anyone. Split-screen itself is horrible, but playing split-screen on a non-HDTV would be like playing at the worst imaginable resolution.
Just use your monitor then.
I thought all TVs being sold now were HDTVs lol Well, I don't have to worry I have 2 HDTVs

Some of my fondest gaming memories were playing Halo 2 or Crash Team Racing with a few friends around.
