    HDTV questions

    So, I finally bought an LCD tv..
    I don't watch much TV so I've got a few questions because I don't know much about them

    Should a DVD be clear on a 720p TV? I've been playing them through my Xbox and they don't seem as clear as I expected .. Do I need blueray ?

    Also, I have an Xbox 360 currently wrapped under the tree, how will this look on my new TV? do I need any special cables or is the component cable okay? (It says HD on the cable) but my friend says I need a HDMI cable, but I'm unsure

    Any answers are appreciated..

      you're probably not bright enough to deal with new TV technology, no shame in that.

      take it back and get one of these

          haha..
          well, I found my answers, and looks like I gotta spend even more money to get clear picture

          I was happy with my 27 inch tube TV, but it was time for an upgrade.
          I seriously watch only 1/2 hour of TV a day ( two and a half men )

          besides that, I couldn't be bothered..
          Figure my kids will figure out all this shit for me, tonight I had to get them to show me how to get the fucking Xbox to play a DVD and they treated me like a retard while explaining it all.. Apparently microsoft bent me over and made me pay for a remote otherwise it won't play DVD's even though it has the functionality, that remote must be plugged in to play them , etc etc.. what a pain in the ass.

          Funny, I remember showing my parents how to work the VCR (* beta haha ) and now I'm being schooled by an 8 year old.

                  1080p is the best.... the new xbox360s are good.


                  There is a new SuperHD spec.... its like 12 times the res of current HD

                  BADASS!

                      Well, I don't know nothing about 720p TV, I've got 1080p one and there we can adjust the colors and brightness for what we'll do, for example: there's a setup for xbox, for movies, for series, for non-digital programs... In fact, if you want to watch something with a clear image, buy a blu-ray player...!
                      I'm just a newbie.
