Quote:They play well with the PC, if you've got something of decent power
There's the rub. :/ I could upgrade my video card (my PC is otherwise decent), but getting an 360 or PS3 would at least give me the capability of upscaling my DVDs. I, uh, think. I play DVDs off my PS2 which has a noticable drop in quality compared to Netflix VOD. A buddy of mine has a bigger TV and plays DVDs from his 360, and they look fine. But I guess it could be the TV, too. Maybe all that upscaling shit only works for Blu-ray? Help a layman out, guys. Am I correct in my assumptions?
If nothing else, getting a (now-last) gen console would at least let me play the games I missed out on, like Silent Hill 5. When I do play games, I tend to prefer a TV/comfy couch instead of a computer desk. Old habits die hard.
