A lot of people don't understand the concept of HD.
Having an HD tv does not make your tv output HD necessarily. To get tv channels in HD, you need to pay for installation and a special cable. For gaming, you need an HD cable specific for that system. Wii does not support HD at all. x360 and ps3 (ps2 i believe too) however, do.
They probably weren't using compenent cables? :?
I hate Gamestop anyways, I had a guy there call me a "stupid ***"....I just HAD to be at Gamestop on the day of Pearl Harbor....

Yeah, I almost jumped over the counter and kicked his ass....this is how it went "Hey do you guys have any DDR Extreme games?" "No" then I saw and heard him say "stupid ***" to his like little cashier friend. There's been other cases where they're just complete jerks....but there's just too many times to explain. I'm never working there, working there automatically makes you a jerk (well not really, just making a joke) :P.

should have made him pay.I think people largely have this mistaken notion that LCD and HDTVs in general are like "old fashioned" CRTs in being more or less plug and play. That just isn't the case. There is a lot more that goes into getting a good picture on an LCD, and if you just bring home a new HDTV, unbox it, and hook it up and just roll with the default settings, you are almost assuredly not getting optimal performance.
SMG looks great on my 42" Vizio, but before I took the plunge into HDTV last year I spent a good 30-40 hours researching/educating myself before diving in. Even though the Vizio isn't a top end LCD by any stretch, I always get compliments on the picture quality because I took the time to learn how to set one up properly. I also don't have any problems with jaggies on Wii games like some people report here.
That's why long winded explanation as to why SMG looked like garbage on an HD LCD at Gamestop - because they didn't know what they were doing and didn't have it setup properly.
