I'm using an old CRT, but only for the fact that I can't afford an HDTV yet. :( Need to get some debt paid off, then I'm gonna upgrade!

My mate plays on a CTR, the only bad thing is some of them round the edges Image a piece of paper...no fold the edges up, thats kinda how some can look But rest assured I played my PS3 on a 15" SDTV and it still looked Amazing!

I have my old sony RPTV in my room and i use the PS3 with it...in my TV's case once the 1080i resolution is detected the tv goes in a kind o "widescreen" mode..but it looks really sharp...

The only problem I had with playing on a CRT before I upgraded, was reading the text in some games. Small text is not your friend when playin on a CRT

I was gaming with my PS3 when i first got it on my old Philips 27" SD CRT tv and it was just great although i recommend getting component cables if your tv supports it, and even currently I have a CRT tv although its HD and 16:9 format. Its not as good as some LCD screens but it got me into the HD gaming world. Playing games in widescreen make a great difference as well.

I have the same TV and today I'll be upgrading to a 22 inch computer monitor(size isn't a problem since my room is small).

Yep you can't see a thing. I had troubles when I first played MGS4. You can't see what you pick up! (as far as ammo and other pickups are concerned). Games are still a blast to play. I've tried it on my friend's 42" Full HD and I can't wait to have mine (well probably not 42 Full HD because I can't afford it but probably around 26-32 HD, maybe 1080p if there are some available)

That means I can't play MGS4 as well. :( Well, I can still use my step-father's new HDTV if necessary. :)
