- My Dell 24" LCD doesn't support 1080P over component.
- High-Def Harry Potter trailers are cool.
- High-Def games look really nice.
- PS 2 games look really crappy in comparison.
I also gave GTHD a spin. The cars and track all look great. They're all very crisp and the detail amazing. Especially as I fired up GT 4 right afterwards. Comparing GT4 to GTHD in HD makes GT 4 look like complete crap. Doesn't help that the 1080i output setting for GT4 seems busted. Setting it to 1080i makes some stuff look crisper but really does some weird stuff to the graphics. I'm not sure if this a PS 3 bug or just something with GT4. The 480p setting does look ok, but is super chunky and doesn't compare to GTHD. I'm not sure if I can stand the graphics of the game now that I've seen a high def version.
I'll post a few comparison pictures of the what the various games look like in high def later today.

So, do you have any blu-ray movies yet?
No, blu-ray yet Craig. There aren't to many movies out on the format I don't have on DVD that I feel would be better in hi-def. Oddly enough I find more Universal Films like Serenity would be cool in hi-def but they only do HD-DVD.
That said, once Warner get's Batman Begins out on Blu-Ray that's a definite buy. Plus I might get The Prestige, and Casino Royal. Both would probably look pretty cool in hi-def.
I forgot the mention the primary reason I don't have any blu-ray is that I lack the proper home theater setup to really make it work.
Sitting in my computer chair or on my bed watching Hi-Def movies on a 24" LCD just doesn't cut it. Once I start making some money and can get myself a 60" HDTV then I'll look into replacing my DVDs and getting new videos.
