- Xbox 360 on standard TV
- Posted by T1J on November 14th, 2005
Ok All I've heard about Xbox 360 is how good the game will look on HDTV, how
about old standard tv? i got a 6 year old TV with composite(yellow, white,
red) will the game still look good on standard tv? Since Most people still
use standard tv.

Of course we won't really know until after they go on sale 11/22, or later
since most are already presold...

Sure. It will be a very, very good console. And not just for gaming.

Steve,
Well, apparently Circuit City will accept orders this Friday, for Monday
shipment to arrive Tuesday, so it could be waiting for you when you get
home...as long as you have someone at home to sign for it...

Best Buy really bites it. Take their weekly 'specials' and compare
their sale prices to www.dbuys.com.
