PS3 without HD TV ?

I'm buying a PS3 Slim but I don't have HD TV yet.

I want to know if the games would look crap on a regular TV. Will it lag and stuff.

Thanks in advance.

The games will run and look great. The difference isn't the graphical intensity, it's the quality and clarity. I mean, you will still see tje beautiful landscapes and intricately designed clothing. But with an HD TV you will notice them even more.
 
Can confrim that they still look good, me and a few work mates had a sesh on street fighter 4 at one of there houses on normal TV, looked good but to be honest still looked better on my xbox 360 at home on HD
 
graphically, it will look fine. But keep in mind that some games may be hard to read onscreen text depending on how it's formatted.
 
Since you are going to go use a SDTV then the only thing that will really suffer will be the text. Text in 480i sucks.
 
And the fact that some games will have the black bars on top and bottom of the screen (Widescreen view). Other than that,you should have no problem. :thumbs:
 
Keep in mind that most PC monitors from within the last two years will have HD hookups as well, you may see if you can connect it to your PC monitor for 1080p HD
 
^ Question about that. How would you get the audio running? I know monitors that have an HDMI port only output video and not sound.
