Will my X360 suck on my TV?

I have a say 3 to 3 1/2 year old 20 inch TV (not plasma, not HDTV). Will the 360 experience be any good, or will I really really need an update? Thanks.

It will be pretty good. You could use an update, only if u have the $$$. I just got an emerson 20" flatscreen, B4 i had heard of 360. But don't buy a TV unless it's HD.

I doubt you'll need to upgrade your TV, especially seeing as yours is ony 3 years old.

You should be okay. 3 year old TV's arn't bad at all. It's those ones in like 6 years and higher you should worry about.

An alternative would be to hook your 360 upto your pc monitor (which is HD). You'll need to buy a first party VGA Cable (sold seperately).

My current TV that I use with my xbox is the most **** TV I have seen. The real problem is that it won't break down causing my parents to buy a new one.

The graphics on the 360 will still be outstanding on any TV. There is still a obvious difference between xbox graphics and regular TV coverage - the 360 will just make that gap smaller.

dont worry about it ppl the xbox 360 will hopefully be the same for everyone MS has to take into consideration that not every1 has an hdd tv.

If you have a HDTV it will look awesome but on a normal TV it still will look really good, I have a 5 - 6 year old 19" TV in my room and the graphics from the current Xbox look really good on it but when the Xbox 360 comes out I might eventually buy a 26" LCD TV so I can enjoy those awesome High Definition Graphics.

it will work with any t.v just better on HDTV

JetMars · 23-08-2005, 11:39 AM

Hmm not sure I will buy a new tv just for the 360. HDTV's in the uk are very expensive

SuNshINe4LiFE · 24-08-2005, 02:57 PM

I have an old 24" tv which the normal Xbox graphics are really bad on, will xbox 360 work good on it? :P i bet its 30x30px ^_^

ace2cloud · 26-08-2005, 10:10 PM

I have a 7-year-old 27" TV that works great with games.

However, I plan on purchasing a 26" LCD by Christmas.

Joergen · 26-08-2005, 10:12 PM

I'll probably buy a new tv when i get my 360 as well

gamergurl · 27-08-2005, 03:42 PM

i think that the 360 will look better on HD...however, it will still look great on a regular TV as well
