Should i buy a HDTV before ps3?

Question

i just read that if you play ps3 on a regular tv it looks like a ps2 game? is that true? should i buy a hdtv before i get ps3 or is it all a big fat lie?

Answer 1

buy an xbox360

Answer 2

Yes you should. My husband is a Circuit City manager and believe me, I am very into saving $. But we own lots of TVs and HDTV is better. Even I admit it. You will need a special cord too. Yes, I thought it was hype too to get you to spend $ but its not its actually better technology. (And this from someone who would like to go back in time to tapes because my CDs keep getting scratched!!!)

Answer 3

no it looks great on a regular tv it just that it doesn't look completely HD although i would recomend buying the tv first. oh yea make sure the tv support 1080p

Answer 4

no, its a lie. of course it wont look as good in hd as sd but it still will look really good, a million times better than ps2. but i wouldn't. buy the ps3 first so you can start having fun right away, after all there are tons of great games coming its way soon, do you want to miss out on the fun? after awhile buy the tv

Answer 5

It not a lie, you don't need HDTV, you need a TV that 1080p not 1080i because the best way to get good quality for your ps3 is use a HDMI cable and by having a 1080p TV.

Answer 6

yes that is true, buy the tv first!  

Answer 7

f*** no the graphics are stilll awesome but they look 10 times better on 1080 so the graphics still look better than the original graphics on the xbox even on a standard tv.  but i say go buy them at the sametime

Answer 8

Big fat lie. The graphics are the same on all TV's. On an SDTV, you won't get the "crystal clear HD" like on an HDTV, but your games will still look pretty good.
