I play on my 27" standard low res tv and sometimes I really wish I had an HD one. So tempted to get one. Am I the only one in the world who doesn't play HD?

How anyone could ever play a current gen game on an SD TV is beyond me. I've tired it, it makes everything look like it was for the PS2. I use a 1080p. And no, they're not expensive.

1080p for me.

As far as HDTV's go, mines small (32"), but it's 1080p and I like it.

Modern Warfare 2 gave me an STD.

Given the millions of people who've purchased the game, I'm certain at least a few of them have STD's.

If any people posting on here are actually playing in SD, maybe they shouldn't have bought MW2 and saved that cash for a decent TV or hell, a flatscreen monitor. Seriously, people need to get their priorities straight.
 
(And maybe they should get off their lazy asses and get a job!)

I play on an LCD monitor.
 
There are a couple of HD TVs in my house, but they aren't mine. I'll sometimes play games on a 42" LCD 1080p TV.

Hardly small, I had one that size in my room for some time, it over shadows the 22" one next to it. "

I play it in 1080x1920 on my PC.

You guys DO realize the game is only 600p on consoles, right?

So brag all you want that your "1080p is superior" while really it's stretching.

I have a small 23" but it is 1080p so i'm happy.

Wow, time to invest in an HD tv.

720p on a 32" in my bedroom like a creeper.

I'm on an HDTV that I borrowed from my grandmother like a year ago. What's she going to do with it? I'd be boned if I wasn't lucky enough to have gotten one for free, because I am FLAT broke.

Some people are in college and can't afford the luxuries of HD. Although I'm one with the luxuries a lot of my friends can't afford it in college ATM :P "

All HD, all the time!

HD 1080p.  
 
I feel your pain, simply because I know that even on HD it can be hard to pick out targets.

 1080p    

My Xbox 360 is hooked up to a 19" LCD monitor, and I play MW2 on that. Can't tell you much more than the fact that it runs at 1440 x 900, and widescreen. Looks good enough to me.

Hehe, has anybody used the "only PC users are truly playing in HD" remark yet?

1920x1200 windowed mode

1920x1200 pc monitor.

I use a pretty decent Standard Definition. It came out right at the end of the SD era.

Wait you can do this? Does it eliminate the really rough SD-edges effect/make text readable? If so, I may hook my xbox up to monitor for single player, then swing it round onto the giant SD for split screen. "

Mostly been playing on a 1080p using component, so 1080i?
 
Other than that, been hooking it up to my monitor at 1680x1050, looks awesome in both cases.

Only PC users are playing in true HD. :P 

" @MysteriousBob: It is like we have money just laying around to go use to buy a decent tv and spare dollar is used on something needed and not superfluous. . You stuck with what you got until you get lucky. "

" @Karmum: Could you point me in the right direction and tell me what cables I'd need? This definitely sounds like something I want to try. "

my TV only goes up to 1080i so 720p it is!
 
Besides 98% of all games run on native resolution of 1280x720 or  even lower

I have a SD TV in my room. I've just never bothered to get a HDTV.

I don't imagine you can see enemies that are far off in the distance with SD.

I play it on my 55" samsung. Though it might be a little too big.
 
Still awesome fun!

No problem, was ready for this. These are the cables I used, and I know for a fact that the 360 VGA cables will work no matter what.
 
Xbox 360 VGA Cable -- Monster discount over what Microsoft sells it for ($39.99!), $7 or so plus a few dollars of shipping is a steal.
3.5mm Stereo Splitter Audio Adapter, 6 inch -- $3 isn't bad at all. I use two computer spakers for sound, and they work fine. I have no idea what you use, though. If you have computer speakers, this should work fine. Plug red with red, white with white, and the speaker cable (what you'd plug into a computer) in the last and final slot.  MonoPrice lives up to its name. Had great service from them and CableOrganizer. "

lolololol STD  
i be playing in 1080p on my sexy HDTV :D
