I play my systems on a CRT HDTV even though its huge,the picture is great and sounds great also.I tried to play Street Fighter Alpha 3 on Dreamcast with normal cables on my sister's 32'' 1080p LCD TV and it looked bad,all the pixels were distorted and had more noticeable jaggies.I'm glad I got my TV over hers even though it's worth more and probably looks better with newer systems.
Systems: Sega Dreamcast(x2), Sega Genesis(x2), Sega Saturn, Sega CD, Genmobile (portable Genesis), FC Twin, PSX, PS2(x2), GBA, SP, Xbox 360, N64, Showcase Arcade

Not really compounding your argument there dude.

I.E. Sentences begin with a capital letter and end with a full stop.

Simpleton! Any modern grammar book would teach you that the :lol: face is perfectly acceptable stop punctuation.
Don't that just look oh so tasty?
