I am just about to get an HDTV and wanted to tap into the experience of some of you who are experts on the subject.
I think the title says it all.
For those of you who have HDTV - what is the best LOOKING game on the console.
Then best LOOKING with best GAMEPLAY.

I say Splinter Cell Chaos Theory or Ninja Gaiden. Both look great and have good gameplay.

IMO, Best looking is easily Syberia at 1080i, truly breathtaking at times.

Soul Calibur II looks awesome in HD, even though it's pillarboxed.

Syberia is a great looking game. Dragon's Lair 3D is also a pretty fun game and looks nice in 1080i.

Don't laugh, but MVP Baseball 2004 or 2005 running at 720p is a really nice looking game. I also like Panzer Dragoon Orta.

According to that site, there are 31 xbox games that support HD (720p and above, 480p is ED). Of those I only own Xmen Legends, and haven't gone back to play it since I got my HDTV. I'll let you know if it's any better (how much better can such low-poly stuff be, really?).
By default, unless you have a good chip in your TV the 720p/1080i games will look better than the glut of 480p games mentioned above (Ninja Gaiden, SC:CT, etc) as they will be more sharply defined and not subject to 3:2 pulldown and/or stretch modes.
