bob marley Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 Nice ! Game to be in HD ! Reeeeeeaaaaaach ! 779371[/snapback] yeah it will be in HD. because I will be there watching live. go bills
todd Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 I just got a 42" plasma on Saturday. Watched the game in HD on sunday for the first time ever. I don't think I can ever watch a game that isn't in HD any more. It was THAT good. However, I'm mad they still don't pan back enough to show the defensive safeties before the snap - even in widescreen. Stupid.+

I'm not very knowledgable on HD tv sets, but the word-of-mouth I've picked up say good things about the plasma screens.
stephenjames716 Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 I picked up a 37" panasonic plasma, and the sunday ticket from direct tv for the season because I live here in LA. I agree with you todd, it's very hard to watch a non-HD game after seeing one in HD. It's like you are on the field...amazing.

I'm only a new subscriber, so when I called about the sunday ticket, and complained that it was steep since I only want the HD games (not all the other bells and whistles) and they offered it to me for $50. I have read on other boards that if you have been with them a long time, and you call the retention folks at direct tv, they'll give it to you for free. try it out. Steve

Steve 779646[/snapback] I got mine completely free for 2006 (as a long time customer) AND...get this.. a complete rebate for LAST YEAR'S Superfan fee (after I complained that there were only about 2or 3 Bills games offered in HD* through that package last year). *There were 2 ESPN games in HD (not part of package), and the locally broadcast Falcons/Bills game in HD (blacked-out on Superfan package). Trivia: The first ever NFL HD broadcast game was the Jets and Bills in 1998. 8 seasons later and CBS can only manage 3 HD games per week. I can't believe that it is taking this long to make the total transition.
Avalanche Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 Directv isn't listing it yet, any idea what channel?
AJ1 Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 From the CBS websitehttp://www.sportsline.com/cbssports 779219[/snapback] Too bad CBS can't hire a few FOX technicians to explain what true HD looks like.
johnnychemo Posted September 20, 2006 Author Posted September 20, 2006 Directv isn't listing it yet, any idea what channel? 779798[/snapback] It's on CBS, so 4-1 like the first two I would imagine. Gotta agree on the consensus that SD game will now suck to watch after getting spoiled on HD. I got a 57" Hitachi widescreen rear projection set last year, and got HD over the summer. I still am amazed at the picture quality, and watching football in HD is the absolute mutts nuts!!

Stupid.+ 779577[/snapback] I've had that same thought for awhile now They've definitely got enough room to do it, bit for some reason the camera angle always shows too much dead space behind the RB. ONLY complaint about HD
