    To avail of the best graphics this machine's got you definetely need an HD-TV. The catch is, these HD-TVs don't come cheap these days. Lowest I have seen is something like 500 Euro. Better models (like the ones on display in Smyth stores which is a Samsung model) cost about 1000.

    Can't answer if the games are any good - that's subject to definition.

    Graphics? Better than its original of course, however, you'll need an HD-TV to see the difference. You won't see that much difference on normal TVs (I think).

    Display models crashed a lot due to a problem with the power supply. I haven't read much about crashing units that were on sale today. But correct me if I'm wrong with that.

    I got my 360 last nite and im in love. Firstly after hearing all the reviews and talk about hdtv and how there's no point of getting a 360 if you dont have it, i was very impressed with the graphics on my standard def tv, so dont worry if you dont have hdtv you wont be disappointed( saying that i can only imagine how amazing it looks on hdtv!). I only got pd0 but also played the nba demo too and both look quite impressive on my sdtv.

    If you want hi-def(er) graphics but you don't have a HDTV just buy a VGA adepter, it lets you connect you 360 up to your PC monitor and you can then enjoy the higher resolution you monitor supports. €29.99 in gamestop.
