What kind of TV will you be playing your 360 on?
Just curious what kind of TV people have for when they get a 360?
I have a 55" RPTV Mitsubishi (no 720p , but I have 1080i)

42" Plasma. When and if I pick up a 360.

hmmm I would feel uncomfortable playing any game system on a plasma.
I know they've gotten much better about burn-in but having health bars and numbers in a fixed position on the screen for many many hours would make me worry. I hate worrying even if somethings 'hardly an issue'. It would always be in the back of my mind.

I know some Tosh. DLPs had issues with sync but they may have fixed those. The new Sony LCOS and 3LCDs look SOOOOOoOOO good.

48" I`art Rear Projection capable of 720p/1080i Once I have enough money I'm going to free up that footprint with a flat panel.

Yeah, my friend has a Plasma and it was ok to play games on. I want to upgrade, but I cannot jusify getting rid of my Mits TV. I mean, how do you sell that? It was a pain to move once, and I don't really have room for another big-ass TV in my house. However, the 3LCD from Sony are nice. I would have to get the 60" one though, I cannot go smaller

Wow, some impressive TV's here, when and if I get a 360, I will probably still be playing on my 20" 4:3 tube. But it has a built in VCR...bet none of your fancy HDTVs have that.

Can't wait to see what it looks like, I've been too lazy to bring the old X-Box down and hook it up.
