For christmas my parents are getting me an HD TV to go along w/ the new Xbox I will b getting, it's 19" but I don't know if that will b big enough 4 co-op. If it's 2 small 4 co-op that would rly suk 4 me and my friends, and getting a bigger 1 is not an option. My dad prob would not want 2 spend the $ on a bigger 1, he is 2 busy spending it on 700$ snowblowers after all the snow is cleared.

I guess we can all just sit close. If we do 4 player multiplayer we will just have 2 take it down the street or something.

Is it by any chance a Sanyo 19 inch HDTV? If so, that's what I play on, and it is not good at all to play 4 player mutiplay on. 2 player is bearable though. Really nice TV overall.

lol, that suks but it's a 360. From all the feedback I think 19" will b good 4 2 player and singleplayer, and I don't rly plan on having more than that. Thx 4 all the help.

To author.

If I were you I'd get a monitor. A 19" TV wouldn't yield a good resolution.

A 19" to 22" monitor would be great for private entertainment use in my opinion.

I can attest to my Samsung 22" Syncmaster; it's been great; I use it for PS3, Xbox360 and PC.

Although if you want to watch TV with it, then that's different story (but I won't imagine it being nice to watch TV with 19")

19 will be alright for just you but for you and your friends no way, for the price of a 19 inch hdtv you can probably get a nice 22 inch monitor
