        Did you start playing the game yet, though? Because trust me, it looks MUCH better!

                I was going to make the exact post. Not about the intro. My TV (27 inch Flat) has alot of Jaggies during gameplay. Is this normal? Is it the game or TV? I just got this 27 inch and I feel like it may look better on my 10 year old 19in. Is anyone else seeing alot of Jaggies?

                    If you have a big screen HDTV, you're going to get jaggies. I have a 46 inch hitachi, with my xbox hooked up using the Monster 400X HD pack and I get jaggies. It's just something we have to deal with until xbox 2 comes out and consoles are better suited for HD gaming.

                            There are jaggies in the game. It does not use full screen AA.

                            However, on a 27" you probably shouldn't be seeing many jaggies. I am playing on a 55" HD widescreen and I am seeing minimal jaggies at that size.

                            One thing to check is if the TV is properly calibrated. Most people who don't know better think that having the sharpness control cranked up on their TV is a good thing. Well, it isn't. Sharpness is there to add artificial sharpening to the picture, which in turn could increase the sense of jaggies.

                            Also, make sure your contrast and brightness settings are properly calibrated to standard. Blooming from high contrast can wash out the picture and cause a jaggier look. To calibrate, pull out any recent THX certified DVD and use the calibration software on there.

                            Home theater is a huge hobby of mine and it amazes me how many people don't know what they are missing in regards to picture quality by not properly calibrating their sets. You paid the money for the TV...might as well get the best image possible out of it .

                            Hope this helps some!
