What does a 360 look like on a 26" lcd HD 800:1 contrast tv ?

If you have the Core, it's white. The Elite is Black and the Halo edition is green. But why would you put it ON a flatscreen LCD?

Bad jokes aside, it looks fine. My friend plays on a 19'' tv from like 1990 in SD and you can still appreciate things. I play on a 42'' Sharp Aquos LCD. It will still look just fine, only drawback is a somewhat smaller screen which isn't hard to get over.

HD is a huge difference. But it's one of those things that you never look back. As long as all you know is SD, you'll enjoy it just fine. But the second you start gaming in HD, it's a chore to go back.

Stick with the 26'', I'm assuming it's HD right? Since it has HDMI. Good luck, you'll like it.

it will look pretty nice kind of like the graphics will kind of look the same but everything will just be biggerA22A221N_47

i want there to be a difference in graphics if im paying an extra £180 just for hd and a 2" Smaller screen than a 28 sdtv.

I have a 32" Visio LCD and my 360 is hooked up through HDMI... it looks... beautiful.Toribor

I want to buy a Vizio! Check your model number and tell me what it is. I want your TV. :D

800:1 is really low. With a contrast ratio that low, blacks will have a blue tint to them.EnderSR388

Omg i might as well go standard def then

Unless I'm missing something. My 32" Samsung LCD HDTV has a 3000:1 contrast ratio.

well the fact that its a 26" thats pretty small but the picture quality will be good just small everything... lol try a 56" HD Flat screen now thats a blast specially w/ surround sound lolHelghast82nd

I'm comparing 6 inches and a 2200 contrast ratio difference. Your 26 is 800:1, my 32" is 3000:1. I'd say find something with a better contrast ratio.

I had a 22" widescreen monitor with a 500:1 CR and I returned it because it made blacks have a blueish tint to them. I then bought a 19" widescreen with a 800:1 CR instead and it's alright, still not a good as I'd hoped. I can tell the difference between 800:1 and 3000:1 though when looking at my TV and monitor.

well it will be better than a standard def right?

Oh absolutely! I'm talking contrast, not resolution. It will look amazing, just that the black levels won't. I'd just do some reasearch before you spend your money. Just trying to help you get the most out of your 360 experiece, especially if you haven't played in HD before.

ahh i see there must be a way to ajust that then ?

There's no way to adjust contrast ratio. That's something that you'll have to look into before you spend the money.
