    @Rinkalicous: 
    If you decide to use something other than computer speakers for sound for a X360 - Monitor setup, I recommend you do some extra research, just to be safe. I don't want to screw you over with your purchases, even if they are pretty cheap. Extra research on sound cables, you're going to be fine in the X360 VGA Cable department. Works like a charm.
     
    No problem, by the way. Get back to me and tell me how it works out.

    Ever since I got my 55' Sony HDTV a couple years back, I will only tolerate HD and nothing less.

    Yeah, it's easy.  But I imagine it being extremely difficult for those used to HD.

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

    " 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!) "
    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 "
    Does I smell an ELITIST?!?!?! GASP!
    Personally, I can't afford the billion dollar gaming PC's on the market, nor afford to upgrade one in my house. The Sony 60" 1080p in my living room is fine :)
    But otherwise, yeah some people just can't afford HD.

    There comes a point where Standard Definition won't register finer details.  There comes a point where people who use Standard Definition cannot see as far into the distance as someone using High Definition.

    @Noodles: Damnit you are right. It's just I had this tv and it was nice in its day, its just a bit over 5 years old. I didn't really want to get ride of something that is still working perfectly ya know? But your right, I'm getting fucked playing this game because I can't see snipers in the bushes as clearly. All I see are damn blobs.

    I don't think that HD or SD has anything to do with the draw distance, but I do agree that finer details would not be as identifiable.  I see people at long distances just fine on my SD TV, even though they could probably be more reparable on an HD TV.

    I wasn't aware that a sexually transmitted disease was a thing you could play games on.
