Alot of X360 and PS3 owners do not have an HD-TV. And when wee see screen shots of the game at gamespot it looks amazing. But when we play it on our SD-TV it looks almost like trash compared to the screenshots. I would like to see more SD screenshots of X360 and PS3 games so those with out HD-TV (most of them) can see how it would look like on their own set.

Early screenshots come in from the press, and most of those are HD now, if not all of them. I think GameSpot made the switch to all HDTV's in their Office to play games on, so when they take screenshots from the game then they'll all be of the game running in HD.

I think it might be helpful to have SDTV screenshots, but since HD is taking over then it seems doubtful. I also think an argument some people will make is "I think it's obvious SDTV will look crappy and HD will look good," so just be warned on that.

Well, then they might as well offer bad quality screenshots for PC games because some people have lower-end PCs. Screenshots are provided to show you how far the game is at maximum settings.

A TV comparison would be a sweet feature to have especially if it was implemented with the pictures that you roll the mouse over to see the other image so a direct comparison is easily drawn.

I support this and hope it gets done.
