I am planning to own all the next gen consoles and i think i will start with a 360 as it currently has the best catalogue of games. However, i don't have a High Def tv...in fact i have a small 15" portable TV...Are the games still going to look good on an old TV? Also there is now news that microsoft might be doing what MS fanboys have criticised other companies of before and releasing an updated version of their consiole. The rumour is that it will be a 360 with the improved 65nm chip that was already planned but also with HDMI ports and a 120gb harddrive. Alledgedly called the xbox 360 zephyr.

It all leaves me kind of feeling that i should just wait. I also thought about picking upa Wii, but their is only Zelda and Wii Sports out that are worth buying and the Q1 line-up for the Uk is terrible...
Looks like my trusty PS2 is going to have to troop on for a few more months, but it has served me well 4 1/2 years no DREs or anything. Until rumours end i think i am just going to continue completing my PS2 games and picking up the last few gems in its catalogue.
P.S if anyone does play a 360 on an old skool..and a little bit rubbish telly, can they tell me what it is like.

i think the wii looks safe, ps3 is almost inevitable that a smaller model will be made

I hear that the 360 is supposed the drop in price soon, most likely around March. So, even if the 'zephyr' rumor is just a rumor, it will still be worth waiting. And playing a 360 looks amazing on any television, but prepare to strengthen your glasses prescription; the text is TINY... er, tiny. Whatever, but when you play Dead Rising on an analog and then on a HD, you can really see the difference.

I played Dead Rising in HD and I still had trouble reading the text. Hopefully Lost Planet will be a but easier to read.

the 360 is really raw you should wait though imo though I got it in december since it was impossible to get last year, and I decided to finish my ps2 catalogue. It doesn't matter about HD the only difference is that the colors are way better but it's not gonna really play any better. Just wait and get a wii now if you can it looks promising.
