What better way to game than in Hi-Def?
While I'm more than impressed with the capabilities of my newly procured 360, I know I'm not utilizing the system to its full potential. I have the console plugged into a 15 year old receiver with Minimus 77 speakers (GhostRiderTGAC knows what these are) that I believe are on the edge of exploding, so I can forget about taking advantage of the Dolby Digital Surround Sound. I also have a 32" Panasonic television (CRT) which I purchased 3 or 4 years ago which is nice, but far from the 1080i resolution I could be viewing my games in. It's nice to know I have a switch to make the jump to HDTV built right into the connection cord for the console, when I finally bring an HDTV home.
I don't really consider myself to be in the market for HD at this time, however I'm always looking. Maybe it will be on my Christmas list next year, but for now, I'll continue gaming the "old fashioned way".
Anyhow, I figured I'd detail one of the Hi-Def's that have been receiving better than average reviews. If you're on a budget, Samsung has a solution that's right for you....click HERE to get more info.

When you talk HD on a budget you might also consider foregoing the TV all together and get an SVGA cable for your XBOX. I do a good portion of my gaming on a SVGA computer monitor. I can also watch HD television programs and movies that way. There are lots of CRT monitors that will work and if you don't want to dedicate your computer monitor to the 360 you can also buy a KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) switch for under $100 that will allow your 360 and your computer to use the same peripherals.
