BigOlBrain Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 (edited) So I was just thinking about the huge difference in resolution with GRAW vs GR2. I remember playing GR2 (multiplayer) and many, many times looking at something on the screen and saying to myself "oh man is that somebody...or is that a _______ ?" (whatever it might be). Anyone at a distance turned into a blob on the screen for the most part and that was playing in 480p. Now with playing in HD that blob will be much more clear and most HD users will also have a wider view because of the wider screen. So you think it will be much of an advantage or same old thing?

ChessBoxer 36 Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I think so. I used to play Old Ghost Recon on a 57 inch projection and although it wasn't the greatest resolution I could still see a ton of stuff that other players couldn't identify right away with their smaller screens. I switched to a 27 inch for Rainbow 6 for a better reaction time and have never gone back. I recently purchased a 51 inch Toshiba DLP set and I will be using that 24/7 for GRAW and I expect it to help immensely with the size and clarity alone.

stevenmu Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 AFAIK, pro gamers tend to use lower resolutions, a 'blob' stands out more than a few pixels among millions. So you may be at a disadvantage with a HDTV, but at least it'll look cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatality1 actually endorses a high end display capable of extrememely high resolutions, and he is one of the best in the world. You may be right, but i personally dont believe so. i think HDTV will give you a definite advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sup Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 A few very strange pro gamers in a few specific games like low res. Otherwise HD is quite the advantage, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammo Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I'll play on my 50 inch HD and then bring the game over to my girlfriends house and play on her standard set. I absolutely hate it. I feel that I cant see anything and I litterally get half as many kills as I would using my HD set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonwalker Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 Withouth a doubt , but it's no HDTV for me , it's projector for me. Me bro has a HDTV for a few days now but we hardly played on it, we simply miss the incredible huge screensize of the projector, games like GR2 and SS are awesome on our projector and i can't wait to check GRAW on it. We both will be playing it on this baby http://img224.imageshack.us/img224/4342/dsc001048rd.jpg http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/2214/dsc001141jo.jpg http://img436.imageshack.us/img436/8274/dsc001160rk.jpg booooooyyyyyyyyyy cant wait.

Lysander Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 x360 and hi-def projector are like hot sex, it can`t go wrong and it`s damn (photo) real this is one of the best (price around 1000 euro) Hitachi PJ-TX100 projector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonwalker Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I have my projector (Epson TW10) for like a year now, it was priced around 750-800 euro. I wonder how much better that Hitachi is, the price is quite ok really, but i wonder how much better the picture quality is compared with mine.

Moonwalker Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Thanks man, that sounds really good. Cause that price...although 1000 euro is enough dough, it's affordable , definitely. My bro is planning on getting a projector after the summer that costs like 1800 euro's, but maybe he should look out for this one. What we both really want one time, is to have the screensize of what we have now, but in LCD TV quality,my pops has a DIBOSS HDTV, the picture quality is amazing, i really would want that with a projector.
