question about 360? - is worth getting without a HDTV? thanks for any help

Live question - Can I apply a trial code to an account that already used a trial? Thanks

1080i question - My TV only displayed at 1080i.. it doesn't do 720p. So, on the games that are 720p, what happens to them. Do they get up converted to 1080i? Does that affect the quality? I was looking at 720p video at the store and I found it hard to tell..

Sharp lcd question - Hi Does anyone have a 360 connected to a sharp lcd HD tv? I'm thinking about getting one, probably 37", and wondered if the tv reaction time was fast enough for shooter games.

Quick question about "GUN"... - I seem to recall that there was a way to back to town. I searched through the manual, but could not find a reference to this feature. So, I thought maybe it was mentioned during the initial training, and started a new game. I still didn't..

Thanks to Halo Wars, it's decided. X360, here I come.

And as good news never arrive alone, my parents bought an HDTV ! For
general use.

(Note: I'm a major, but, it's THEIR TV-quite logical, btw-so...)

So, I'm asking myself: what GOOD game for X360 could I showcase... (on
the HDTV)

Cause, mmh, Gears of War is maybe not the right thing....(and, despite
it's many redeeming qualities, neither is DOA Xtreme 2)

NBA 2K7 looks awesome on an HDTV. I was watching it yesterday from
about 15ft back (2 of my friends were playing) and it looked real.
G.R.A.W. looks really good too
Fight Night Round 3 looks great
PGR3 looks nice

COD2 looks very nice, but may not be a good game unless your parents like
WW2 war movies.

Otherwise, get DOA:X2, wait for mom to go shopping, and show dad the
power of HD.

Also heard that NBA 2007 is supposed to be really good.

As for mom, wait a little longer and buy the HD-DVD add-on. Show her a
movie or two in HD and that'll be that.

Just Cause, best graphics of any game I have seen. A lot of fun as
well.
