HDTV for xbox 360

Deanomfc

Can anyone help me here? I want to buy a new 19-20 inch television for my xbox 360 (its for a room and i will be sat about 1.5 metres away) i realised they have some good buys in argos. But will the HD quality be any good for the xbox 360 games? People have told me it wont be good enough and create ghosting? It's giving me a headache as I dont have much space and don't know whether to stick with a CRT or buy a LCD.

Ive spotted this one, a new addition in argos but will it be any good?

Do you need the screen for actually watching tv too, or just playing the Xbox.

If just playing the Xbox, you could consider get a monitor rather than tv. Komplett have a 20" LG that's very good for £225, or you could spend less and get a 19" tft.

The LG gets some good reviews though, and is quite a good price for a 20" screen, yet still provides good quality (and no ghosting).

Make sure whichever type of screen you get that you have the cables and connectors to suit. Either component or vga cables. You can also get the vga to DVI connector. That argos screen has a very low contrast ratio which is a bit dissapointing.

It's for watching television on it aswell
