I've finally gone HD!

After 5 years of not caring, stating it doesnt make a difference and justifying SD, ive finally took the leap. A nice little 21" that was given to me by a friend (for free) because he bought a 42" for his room.

First impressions: WOW. It really is as good as they say. Whenever i saw HD it was passing through an electronics store and tbh, it never impressed, although that can be because they havent hooked it up. But when i first set my PS3 to HD, i was mind blown. Not because of the graphics initially but because i could read and see EVERYTHING so clearly. I mean wow, everything just looks so smooth and slick.

I popped in a few games and i think FFXIII was the best looking. HD really makes a beauitful game even more so. I spent so much time just staring at the strands of lightnings hair. Uncharted 2 was jaw dropping and Killzone 2 didnt look that much different although it already looked amazing. Im also finding it harder to aim with everything so clear.

I started my Blue Dragon file and the intro looked so pretty. It looked like a CG movie. Im not comparing it to any movie but the animation and the style just didnt feel like a game. I played a bit of FIFA 08 with my bro and there were different animations and sequences. I didnt expect there were HD exclusive things.

Overall i am very very impressed. I still think the years of comments where people say "I cant go back after HD" are a load of bull, but i think HD is something no-one should miss out on and upgrade as soon as possible.
