TV for retro gaming?

[teh_L0ki]

Just buy yourself a CRT television and reap the results of nostalgia.

The Sony Trinitron I mentioned is a CRT but it's a HD CRT. I was wondering how much of a difference it would be between a 1080i and a 480i tv in terms of quality and input lag because it would have to upscale the image. However my tv supports both native progressive 480p and 1080i so it wouldn't have to de-interlace.

if you want the real experience, go to a local goodwill or other donation center and pick up a nice 80's wood panelled CRT television for 10 bucks. I still say CRT is the best picture for any system that was made in the era when all we had were CRT televisions. LCD televisions look terrible!

I didn't even realize you could get tvs at goodwill. 0_o

Would picking up a standard def old school crt work better than just using my HD CRT?
