Madmoz, traditionally you do that on a living room couch with consoles in your cabinet. But necessity dictates that to get the most out of these consoles, you need to pair them with some sort of HD ready displays, and after spending so much for the consoles, there arent enough dough for the screens. PC monitors are the most affordable solution then, which then dictates playing them as how you do playing PC games on PC.
For those looking, the BenQ FP241W is the only option to go 1080p on a 24 incher. RM3299 i asked, and should already be here by now.

But it is a very acceptable and affordable tradeoff for those who had to budget, Madmoz. And not to mention portable as well for LAN parties. If you arrange and set it up nicely, it is more than capable showing off your console in action.
Start slow2 lah bos, we have to start from somewhere. When things are going a little better financially, then the option for larger screens would open up.

QUOTE(welwitchia @ Dec 1 2006, 03:37 PM) ^ There are lots of Home Theater sets out there that accepts optical input from the consoles (and dolby digital decoding). Pretty cheap too. For games, get those with a huge subwoofer (e.g Logitech). I dare say my cheap setup sounds more punchy than String's system. As for LCD monitors..do u think we can really tell a difference between 720p and 1080p on a 24" screen? My 360's VGA cable is gonna arrive next week from PA. I'll see if running GOW at 1080p makes any difference. Most likely not. Sigh..now all that's left is finding dough for a PS3.  Ehem, that day was polugged using dinky Bravia speakers.  GoW's amp tranceiver volume wasnt cranked up loud, since we want to hear everybody talking right? But yeah, that system is more than 4 years old already. Im thinking of a wireless setup, and for a small area like mine, im still researching the possibilities.
