High Def worth the extra $10
Well i watched Ufc 72 in High def which was my first one in High def....I thought the picture quality was a lot better than the standard.But i had about 10 other people helping me out with the cost so i don't know if I would do it again if i had to pay all $50 myself.What do you guys think is it worth the extra 10 bones???

UFC 73 will be the first time I will watch an event in high-def, so I'm interested to hear what everyone else has to say too.

I usually have some friends at my house during PPVs and we split the cost so it's definitely worth it to do that but i'm not sure if I would buy it if I had to pay the full $50.

If they showed all of the fights like Pride did? Yeah. If you are just a quality fan and dont mind spending 10 dollars a fight give or take? Go for it. I own a ghetto ass Sanyo CRT television, so I wouldnt know the difference anyhow,

I'll be watching 73 in high-def. I'm interested to see the difference. With all the money it cost me to go high-def I've gotta see at least one event in the higher quality! It makes the $10.00 seem not that bad.

Yeah, it's worth it. Looks tremendous on a 60+ inch HDTV.

I will honestly never buy another PPV event unless it is in HD. Well worth the extra ten bucks.

As long as the fights are good I could care less if it was in black and white. Once the punches start flying i stop paying attention to whether I can see the pimples on their backs or not.
