[QUOTE="VladTheImpaler"][QUOTE="ghored654321"]

my brother bought a $500 pcthat includeda MONITER. and he can run battlefield 2 on low at 800x600 at around 40-50 frames. now i d rather play battlefield than anyother game on the wii's roster.

BTW i have a wii

I would hope so since that PC costs double the price of a Wii. Since everybody has a TV you don't need to include a in the price of the Wii. Also I bet that is a crap monior.

One more thing my $400 dollar xbox 360 can display 1920x1080 @ 60FPS or 30 depending on the game.

Still one more thing my friends PS3 that was $600 has the sam output as the 360. So what was your point agian.

Good thing my $500 pc also displays in 1080p on my 42" 1080p Sharp, not to mention it runs at a steady 90fps+...which resulted in my selling my 360 and ps3.

That's cool I was just trying to point out that his thread did not really make sense. Of course something that is $500is going to be better than something that costs $250.That is not exactly breaking news.

I just picked up a Vizio 42" 1080p that was $1200 before my discounts, and who would have thought it is better than my sisters 32" that cost $600.

How do you like your Sharp? That was one of the TV's I was looking at. I just happened to get a smoking deal at Costco and could not pass it up.

[QUOTE="Setsa"][QUOTE="cyprus646"][QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"]

[QUOTE="nmaharg"]said she wants a wii. This is a 42 year old single, and childless female. I hate to say it, but no other console stands a chance. I still don't understand why people want the liitle pos.cyprus646

I have a friend in class who knows absolutely nothing of gaming, tell me that she wantsa Wii. I started laughing so hard when she told me that, ahhh the un-informed.

What's wrong with wanting a wii :? just because you dont like it dosent mean you hafe to be a complete A-hole about it to others :roll: "hardcores" like you put a stigma on the gameing community acting all elitist towards casuals or the un-informerd

It s not the fact that he wanted the Wii, it s the fact that a non-gamer would soon consoder himself "hardcore" or a "true gamer" because he bought a Wii. This occurs a lot in sports and other "groups" too, heck i get mad when a basketball noob starts talking like he knows eveything about the game. Think of it this way, it s like seeing a want-to-be jock talking about buying an expensive hockey stick so he'll be considered a "pro hockey player" except in our little case, it s a non-gamer, or noob, wanting to buy a console so she can become a "gamer".

1st of all it was a girl that wanted the wii and all he said was that she told her she wanted to get a wii and he laughed at her :roll: She's not bragging or anything she just wants to have fun and get a good gameing console. He's just being an eleitist newb who thinks casuals ruin gameing.

Noobs don't ruin gaming. Casuals however do ruin gaming for hardcore gamers that don't wan't gaming to become about simple games.

I am not sure if you like the Wii or not, but I can tell you this is exactly the reason i don't like it. I am so tired of hearing about peoples wives, grandparents and Aunts love the Wii. This is bad for gaming. Why would a company spend millions of dollars to develop an game like UT3 or gears of war when Wii games cost nothing to make and are simple to develop and program. From a business standpoint it seems like there would be no question. If Wii wins look forward to shift toshort overly simple that your Mom can play.

the 360 does upconvert through the VGA cable. I don't know how comparable it is to a stand-alone player because i don't own one.TheBigDrat

Also thru the HDMI cable.

[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]:? The person who wrote that is clueless. He obviously doesn't enjoy any kind of game with that kind of imagination.dhjohns

I agree. I love the fact he has issue you can buy ammo in the game. All FPS have "systems of delivery" for the ammo. Bioshock chose vending machines that you can hack. Wow? Are you for real? Before you get so worked up about this, why not ask yourself who changes the lights on the outside of the bldgs? I mean it is 4 miles below sea level. The pressure would be unreal. :roll:

Yeah no Kidding, at least there were not glowing boxes with ammo that levitate a foot of the ground. Like a lot of games do.

Ahem* MGS* Ahem.

for a 22 inch, I'm seeing you have a pretty god monitor. Bigger tvs like 26' and 32' normally have more brightness and a slight better contrast ratio. I'm guessing you have your monitor displaying at 1360x768, and that's the best resolution you'll be able to get from that specific monitor. If you plan to upgrade one day, make sure you buy a 1080p hdtv, so you make a decent upgrade.

Wow finally someone gives some good advice on hear.

I just moved up from a 37"1080ito a 46" 1080p.On bigger Tv's 1080p relly makes a difference, On smaller Tv'snot so Much.
