My TV is not an HD TV, it's a CRT HD prepared (Philips 32PW9551, one of the very last CRT on the market, bought in 2006). It accepts HD source through HDMI (and component) cable, but downscale it.The result is clean, image is sharp and colourful. In 2006 to 2009 approximatively, it blows most of  low to middle price true HD screens. In 2013, it is clearly no more a good deal (excepts for the CRT image stability) . But I keep it!^^So, my first statement was that TPA lags in 1080i (and it proves that the TPA lag is a software problem). But now, I find controls more enjoyable in 1080i! Ramp combos are easier than in 720p. It's strange, but in 720p, the ball has no weight, aiming is just a pain.In 1080i, once you're used to the little delay, controls are just perfect, for a very realistic experience.The little grip that remains is when you have to shoot at the very last time, to aim an orbit or a side target for example, it happens regularly that the ball drains directly.To conclude, I don't know what to think now (and the fact that my TV is a strange TV <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" />). But one thing that's sure: I download the full game tonight! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
