As sad as this might sound I bought the XBOX360 version of TPA along with all the tables TWICE, so it can be played from 2 different XBOX360's.
One machine connected permanently to a HD screen for 720p as you would..., but the second I have wired to an old Toshiba 32" Widescreen CRT using nothing more than an RGB scart lead.
Those Retro Gamers among you may agree that you don't really need high definition to play Pinball, as if your reading all the text on the table when the ball is whizzing around! What stands out more with a CRT when playing Pinball though are the table lights of course.
An old school CRT offers better luminosity light levels than any flat screen you can buy today so in return for playing it in such a low resolution you have all table lights standing out and glowing as if they are all real. A sight to be hold if your into that typed of thing.
As a retro gamer it's nice to play the game from both sides any way, something the other versions don't offer.
Why I bought the game twice though was because I got fed up swapping the cables over so ended up buying a spare machine.
But yeah, I'm happy to play it looking old school as I am via HD, just wished my old 480p Component CRT never died as it would of looked even better than RGB scart ha!
