Default Would this tv fit games correctly on it?

Im thinking of getting this
Dynex® - 27" 480i Standard-Definition Digital TV - DX-R27TV
Thats only $250 and thats all I am willing to pay pretty much.
I dont need nor want or have the money for a widescreen or hdtv and this is the one I want and the price is right. I like to go old school

so my other panasonic old school tv cuts off about an inch around all sides of everything like in halo 3 it cut off the room around the radar and almost a part of the radar and so on with every game I have played.

so would this tv cut off edges if I am playing games and whatever

thanx

Welcome to ****s-ville.

The problem is that you're not playing on Widescreen, as I've said. Some games cannot scale it properly.

As long as you have the console set to the proper standard tv setting you will be fine. Almost all the games I've played (bioshock, gears of war, halo3, etc) have all been scaled PERFECTLY on my 4:3 tv.
