games really change on a HD tv?

games really change graphically on HDtvs? (i have a SD tv)

There will be a HUGE change. Anyone that says otherwise, is either blind, or has very, no, make that EXTREMELY poor sight. and I'm pretty sure people with that kind of vision could tell the difference.

Sd Tvs are at 640x480, HDTV is 1920x1080.

no not that much, when you change from sdtv to hdtv you really wont see big difference

Yes,they do.Going back to SD just doesn't work.

It's sort of amazing how much better games look in HD, makes everthing look a lot clearer and more crisp.

Only if you have a really crappy HDTV.

The bump from 640x480 to 1280x720 is huge.

See, at this, I lol'd.

Yeah. I can hardly see what I'm playing when I look at those lower income people's tvs.

Yeah, my friend used to play on an old TV, I actually looked so close my nose was 4 inches away from touching the screen, I couldn't make out any of the sub titles. He had a nice 42" LCD 1080 P HDTV now. Everything looks sharp.

The difference is pretty huge, in some games more than others. Playing, say, Dead Rising in SD is like going back a generation.

HD is so much better, I can't go back to playing or watching anything else, other than HD. I've basically become an HD snob.

You can see those jaggies because it isn't extremely blurry, instead it's nice and sharp and you can see all the detail.

It's not like it increases poly count or texture resolution, it's only the screen resolution, but the difference is huge.

They look better but if you already have a decent SDTV with component input it wouldn't be much of a big deal.Jamex1987

like I said menu's do look better and all but when playing the game difference isnt really that big, maybe if i played on sdtv now I would see big difference but when i switched from sdtv to hdtv the difference really wasnt that big

My brother just bought a Samsung 750 TOC, 46 inch LCD TV with 240 Hz to replace our 27 inch SD TV and YES there is a difference when playing games, I was playing WAW and had to lower the aim sensitivity (could be due to the 240 Hz refresh rate and the 2 ms response time), also I find I don't squint when trying to read text on the screen anymore, everything is clearer and crisper. I love it!!!!!!

I have samsung LE32A565 http://www.trustedreviews.com/tvs/review/2008/05/31/Samsung-LE32A656-32in-LCD-TV/p1 + my eyesite is very good. The hdtv is connected through HDMI, why would I try to be blind and make up BS? i bought hdtv after listening to people like you who say HDTV is supa amazing and teh difference between hdtv and sdtv is like black and white tv and colour tv. seriously the difference is just not that big. and it deffo doesnt change games

When people are saying 1920x1080 is barely a noticeable leap from 640x480, humanity has gone down the drain.

I play on a LCD PC monitor and do notice that it looks way better than SD.

The resolution jump will be huge. The change in image quality will take a big jump also.

HD is a very large improvement over SD.

Massive difference.

Everything looks sharper and a little more crisp. It's a little easier to see small details in the game and also things such as text become easier to read. Other then that, there is no big difference. The graphics themselves don't get better when going from a SDTV to a HDTV, they're just clearer but nothing to get all twisted up about.

However it can be a double edged sword since any graphical flaws will be more apparent and visible. Not to mention the "free AA" that you get when playing with a STDV at 480i will be completely gone when going to a HDTV, so be prepared to notice some jaggies since most games don't have AA.

I used to think that the difference between SD and HD was miniscule at best...

And then I connected my 360 to an HDTV.

Now, I can hardly go back to playing games in SD. The difference is that big

Yes, the graphics will be better in every way. A bad game will still be bad, though.

Definitely. I can't even play Burnout: Paradise on an SDTV. The image looks so blurry that I usually crash at high speeds. Small text and small images look better too.

Yes,they do.Going back to SD just doesn't work.

I wouldn't get an HDTV. There might be a difference, but I honestly do not care enough about graphics for it to be worth my while. Current gen graphics on my relatively small CRT SDTV are absolutely fine for everything except Dead Rising (bastards), as far as I'm concerned.

They look a little clearer on an HDTV, but i wouldn't pay to upgrade. THe difference isn't that great, IMO

no not that much, when you change from sdtv to hdtv you really wont see big difference

sikanderahmed

Yes. Yes they do change alot. Anybody who says they cant see a difference between graphics on an HD tv and an Sd tv need their eyes checked or are lying.

I just got a VGA-out cable for my 360 today. The difference is like night and day. Even on a 21" CRT monitor.
