Does my RCA HDtv look tiny to you?

[Supergodman12]

It's a 31.5 inch or 32 inch one but my friend who has a 80 inch says its tiny to play games on

[llorando]

No, looks like a perfectly fine size to me. I wouldn't worry about what you're friend said, bigger isn't always better, I'd rather have a medium sized TV with good picture quality then a large TV with poor picture quality. If you're happy with the size of your TV, just ignore your friend and enjoy.

[Supergodman12]

It says on Google that a medium size TV is 40 to 55 inches?

[Supergodman12]

Mines 31.5 to 32 though?

[AviatorTom]

So long as you're sitting fairly close to it, 32 in is fine. If you're on the other side of the room, something larger (50 in range?) would be better.

[Supergodman12]

What about what the guy said?

[Supergodman12]

When I first got it I think it said it was 31.5 aviatortom that close enough to 32?

[AviatorTom]

@supergodman12 Yes, 31.5 is fine, it's only a half-inch (~1cm) different diagonal measurement.

[Supergodman12]

It's basically the same size then right?

[AviatorTom]

@supergodman12 YES!

[Supergodman12]

The guy below you says it's on the small end?

[Account]

I think it is fine. Your friend is acting like a spoiled child.

[Supergodman12]

What about it's size?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Sounds like a pissing contest between you and your friend

[Supergodman12]

Haha that's funny

My brother from another mother I know you are in love with your RCA HDTV but why do you keep posting about it & the same thing? Do you have an HDTV fetish?

[SueShe]

There is no need for a monster 55'' TV if you live in a small place and you are not more than like 5' away from your TV. This size is perfectly fine.

If you increase the distance from you and the TV, then it makes more sense to have a bigger screen but if you are satisfied with your 32'' TV, then I don't see the need to change it just because others are dissatisfied.

Keep your TV for as long as it is running. There is no need to change it every 2 years for a newer model.

[MrOracle]

I think it's completely a matter of opinion, but that the industry makes recommendations depending mostly on how far away from the screen you will be viewing. The further back you are, the larger the screen size that would be "ideal" - though most people don't have what's "ideal" and they seem to manage just fine.

[Fireguy17]

sometimes bigger is not better.
I have seen some that are so big they take up way too much room and look horrible.
If it works for you that is all that is important.

[Walksbehindtherows]

No man, this is some fucked up TV we're talking about and besides, big asses aren't always hot

[Supergodman12]

What do you mean fucked up tv?

[Jersey2]

The hardcore gamers I know use something like this 38 inch curved screen from Alienware:

[Supergodman12]

I think I saw that tv somewhere

[Jersey2]

It is a computer monitor, not a tv but you can watch tv on it. It is wider and allows you to be more aware of what is happening on the sides when playing a game. It is expensive but people like it that play a lot. I have had a 44 inch tv in from of me and you have to move your head too much to see things. An 80 tv might be fun for Mario cart but for many types of games it is likely too much. But a bigger TV can work too.

[Supergodman12]

So a 31.5-32 is small?

[Jersey2]

It is ok. Not great. I would want something around 38 inches at least which is what used 20 years ago playing WoW. .

[Supergodman12]

I don't know my HDtv looks great when I play games on it

[Jersey2]

Then tell your buddy to F off. Especially if you can beat him in games.

[LiamJHayden]

No. Worry about what works for you not what others think about it.

[RingOfFire]

I would imagine someone who's used to playing them on an 80 in TV would consider that tiny yes.

Once you get used to something it's not easy to downsize.

[msc545]

It depends on how far you sit from the TV to a large extent. The farther away you sit, the bigger the TV should be generally.

If he thinks you need a new TV tell him he is right and he needs to buy you one.

[slatyb]

How far away are you sitting. I have a 34" monitor that is fine from 3 or 4 feet away.

[exitseven]

When I was growing up we had a 25 inch black and white TV and we thought it was awesome

[DrPepper12]

That may as well be a tablet. Go get an 80" for less than $500. Treat yourself

[Anonymous]

Do you have a magnifying glass?

[OddBeMe]

I play games on a portable 10 inch gaming PC.

[petitedollbabee]

Seems fine.

[gatixek710]

nowadays, it is on the small end.
