Rear Projection TV

So I'm a poor college student who can't afford a nice HDTV. Recently I was given an old school rear projection big screen tv from way-back-when. I was wondering if anyone knew enough about them to give me some advice for tweaking it to get the best quality picture out of, especially when playing Xbox 360. I have a feeling that there will be no real solution to the fairly fuzzy picture to TV puts out.

Rear projection + video games sucks. Crazy video delay.

I've only seen a problem with it on one particular TV, and I've played on quite a few.

Maybe you'll get lucky and it will only be off by a few MS.

I've got a 47" HD RP TV and it kicks ass for video games.

Togusa, if your TV is as old as you say, the bulb probably needs to be replaced. If you can track down a Video Essentials calibration DVD to tweak it but I doubt you'll get a great picture out of it
