I've been giving thought for a long time to buying a 360 and Gears really has me drooling. I'm kind of waiting until I get my tax return (assuming I get a nice one, if at all) to buy a nice 40"+ HDTV. Would it be worth it to get a 360 before I buy the TV? I hear it isn't even worth it without a HQ TV.
It looks fine on our crappy 27" old Sony crt tv. Most other X-Box'ers I've talked to on various msg boards all agree that yeah, HDTVs are nice, but if you don't have one, playing the X-Box 360 on old tvs isn't bad at all. Since your getting an HDTV in the near future anyhoo, there's no reason why you can't start gaming sooner with your old tv until then. Besides, you're sure to appreciate your HDTV when you eventually pick one up and playing your X-Box 360 on it. Trust me, you'll be playing Gears of War more than one time through as well as co-op and pvp sessions.
We're holding off on getting a flatscreen HDTV until the new technology (something to do with graphite) comes out in the near future.
