HD era is here with 360. Let's here the impressions on the tv's. Only comment I'm gonna make is those little 17" lcd's in a few stores for 360 aren't looking too hot. I much preferred my experience with Gamestop's Samsung. Oh, and also, I'm likely getting the Sony 30XS955 in the next couple of months and 360 when a little bit of cash rolls in. So I'm starting to take an interest in the HDTV market. $1000 budget for me.

So what HDTV are you using for 360, and how happy are you with the results?

I have an 34XBR960 and everything looks fantastic in 720p. However, in Perfect Dark, the far left and right sides are cut off for some reason (like the green max ammo bar on the right I can't even see). I still can't figure out if it is the game, or my TV not being set right. Dash and PGR3 as well as every other 16:9 Xbox 1 game look like they line up fine.

Most HDTV's seem to have some type of framing issue. I was looking in Sears today at the DTV's, and noticed the edge of one picture was cut off. The text couldn't even be read with the first letter. It was off the screen. I quickly looked around the other tv's to see if a better one fixes the problem. All of them had the same exact framing problem. Pretty odd, but I think the software just isn't lined up perfect quite a few times on HDTV's.

I've been trying to get a sagem dlp but there seems to be some curse which prevents me from reaching one..
I honestly don't know what to buy anymore : (
I think i'll go with some 'cheap' temporary solution, like a hd crt, thought i'd grab a samsung slimfit (the only models i can currently find here) but it doesn't look like a good crt; maybe i'll have to wait for philips-lg cybertubes, due early next year...having to wait for a temporary solution sucks, but buying a tv i am not fully satisfied with sucks more
BTW, how does X360 perform on 1080i crt's ? for some reason i imagine it won't look as sharp and "hi def" as with lcd's and dlp's, but maybe i'm wrong

I'm using my 3 year old 48" Widescreen Mitsubishi CRT Rear Projection 1080i TV.
I'm very happy with the results. Of course, I'd much rather have a native 720p digital display, but I rolled the dice early on HDTV and now my TV is outdated. Sadly though, I just got it paid off and my wife isn't about to let me run out and spend 2-3k again for a new tv. Maybe I could accidentally put my foot through it or something.....
