edit: The Xbox 360 is a terrible DVD player if that's what you're using.

And when Willco gets his PS3, that issue will be solved. IMO DVDs on 360 look good on a PC monitor, but on an HDTV? :yuck PS3 looks much better. I find it the same for the BC games, too. PS2 games look better upscaled than the Xbox original games do.

Post by: hyp on January 15, 2008, 01:17:37 PM: upscaled DVDs on a 360 w/ HDMI looks pretty good on my tv. don't really notice too much of a difference between the 360 and PS3 imo. but then again, my tv rocks. :rock
