Re: XBOX 360: My graphics don't look like HD

Hey there,
thanks a lot for your answer.

Well, the only game that "looks like HD" is Fight Night 3. There are hardly any jagged edges. Everything else looks like it was mid to lo-res.

also keep in mind that you have to sit approx 3x your TV size away from the screen... so 47" makes a sitting distance of at least 150".... when close to the tv, it'll always looked jaggy.
I don't sit next to the TV, of course. But still: From that far away the game looks less jaggy but still not like high definition. Like in Black Top mode I can see jaggy edges along the benches in the background and so on.

Sadly, I am not yet allowed to post links. So I'll try to guide you to examples of what I am experiencing here.

Please go to the 2ksports forums and look in the nba2k part, --> "NBA2k9 General Discussion". On page 70, there is a thread labeled "Post your HDT/SDTV NBA 2k9 pictures". On the first page you'll see examples of what I think HD should look like. Too high expectations?

On page 11, post number 106, there is a picture that looks like it does here on my TV. See those edges?

another thing could be your TV calibration... check avforums-com and search for calibration settings for your set. some "good" features like noise reduction etc might screw up imagequality.
Thanks for that link. I'll check it out. I doubt though that it'll change much since I've tried most of the available settings already
