[QUOTE="PCgamer687"][QUOTE="ogvampire"]

actually i know alot about HDTVs, but my expertise is in Samsung TV's, not Sony TV's.

the only difference in picture quality would be the contrast ratio. so it shouldnt be that much of a difference. also, when it comes to 'xbr' or '6 series' tvs, the difference in price is usually features that have little to do with picture quality besides the contrast ratio.

like i said, you should look into calibrating your tv

XBR8 does the best blacks has a much beter contrast ratio, and uses a much newer version of Motion Flow, but XBR8 is a $7000 tv this year, and my XBR4 cost $4000 last year when i got it. and contrast ratio is not the only difference.

calibrate your HDTV, the picture quality will be much better. especially for xbr's, my friend got one and the factory settings are not good. it can use some adjusting

but your tv's 'black' adjust is not that much lower than the xbr8. when they say is has 'deeper blacks', it usually means it is tested with a calibrating machine, meaning most of the time the average person cannot tell a difference.

oy... i know if i tweak my TV it can look a bit better but the XBR8 is jus ta much better tv contrast ratio of 30,000:1 (XBR4) vs 1,000,000:1 (XBR8) standard backlight vs LED backlight the XBR8 is the best HDTV on the market, and can beat the Kuro Elite in many ways. and ive seen the XBR8 in action, and its much better than my XBR4

is your HDTV 120hz?

have you calibrated your HDTV?

im guessing thats why your friends' HDTV picture quality looks better.

you dont know TVs very well do you? the XBR8 is better than the Elite Kuros, its just a much better picture than the XBR4, and yeah the XBR4 is 120hz...

trust me the XBR8 is just a better TV

HD is a huge jump, not only is the resolution much higher but most HDTVs have amazing features to enhance your picture. i have my PS3 hooked up with highspeed HDMI v1.3 to my Sony 52' XBR4 and it uses feature like X.V. colour, and HDMI superwhite. Though better HDTVs make the games look much better, my XBR4 is an insane HDTV, but a friend of mine got a Sony 55' XBR8 and PS3 gameson his TV look even better than on my XBR4.

[QUOTE="grr320"]

even crysis lighting is fake, i was in a mineshaft i shot out the light source the lights went out but it didnt go totally dark, but how the hell was i able to see still when there was no lightsources?

Interesting, i recall though that GG said without their lighting engine the game would just be pitch black, o well. btw i never tried that in crysis warhead, i should really replay that game just remebered how much i love it...
