As someone who did not care about graphics and video quality and played through a few early PS3 games on a medium sized SDTV before getting a cheap HD one...
I never, EVER want to go back to playing HD games on an SDTV, and the people saying that there isn't much of a difference seriously don't know what they're missing.
