Hey guys, currently i own a 37" Viewsonic HDTV 720p. When i play the playstation 3, the pictures are not that good as the pixels are big. Now the question: If i buy a 37" HDTV 1080p, will the graphic improve? Or it will not improves as the games are only supported by 720p? Thnx

On a small (relatively) 37" TV, there will not be a big difference between 720p and 1080p. If the pixels are "big", make sure all of your setting are correct. This should not be the case. Make sure your PS3 is set up to display only 720p.

Not to undermine what King is saying, but I sit about 2 ft away from my screen and the difference between 720p and 1080p is extreme. I can't do without 1080p now that I have it. MY screen is 32"

It really depends on how close you are sitting to your screen. If your rather far back then you probably wont notice, but if your up close and you can see the large pixels, its better to move up in resolution.
