Poll: Still use an SDTV?

[Clint Chapdelaine]

this may seem strange but i take a bit of pride in resisting new technology, so the tv i use for gaming is SD, heck only reason i upgraded my psone to a ps2 is because it got stolen. and im not going to bother getting a WiiU because i dont like how nintendo is strongarming you into upgrading by turning off services on the wii, so yeah I mainly use SD, if you need an HD tv for Ps4 (gotta get it for elderscrolls online, dragon age 3 and kingdom hearts 3 ) ill prolly save up for one, but for now im not buying into the HD craze.

finally got rid of our last CRT TV last summer, and i was bummed about the input lag on my 1080p 120Hz TV (47 ms) when it came to using my Wii/SNES/PS2 on it until i found an external composite-to-HDMI upconverter. it was $50, but plays composite video to either my HDTV and my 1080p computer monitor via HDMI with practically zero lag since the conversion is hardware based (instead of the much laggier software upconversion), so i eliminated the only thing making me want to keep a CRT TV around.

the main TV in the apartment is SD and that likely won't change anytime soon. I don't own any HD console, I don't have the HD cable package, I don't watch a lot of TV in general and the current TV works when I do watch so I can't see spending the money to replace it at this point.

I bought a big HDTV right after buying a PS3. Played Burnout for half an hour on my old CRT, said "Yeah, this ain't happenin'," and drove to the store.

I have a 42" LCD 1080p HDTV in my bedroom and a 40" CRT in the livingroom. Honestly, aside from the HDTVs huge widescreen size and light weight I prefer the CRT. Since I can't afford LED HDTVs, the contrast on the CRT is much better than the LCD HDTV. LCD can't produce proper blacks, but CRTs and LEDs can.
