Am I missing something here?

The offer ends on the 23/09/10. So you can still buy it.
Again you're picking at straws.
I couldn't buy it. Anyone shopping at ASDA or Blockbuster couldn't buy it.
What am I suppose to do? Go driving round town to find someone that may or may not have an elite in stock?
The current model is the slim, therefore my prices are valid
Oh so we are talking about you again now, not the average consumer.
Make your mind up please.

personally i rather use a VGA cable then a HDMI one
Most of that hype surrounds the multiplayer side of the game or how good it looks compared to Halo 3.
If you bought Reach thinking it would look as good as a current PC title you should've done more homework

people say its amazing bc of the gameplay not the graphics.....christ oh mighty....
The quality of the TV does make a difference, especially on the 360/PS3.
The main issue on the now old console tech is you get plenty of aliasing, and low rent textures at times, a PC monitor/cheap LCD TV won't flatter them at all, most I see tend to be harsh and have excessive edge enhancement (sharpening) going on, sitting close to them just amplifies it beyond what most people would find reasonable.
I think you want to move your 32" TV further away, and see if you can remove any harsh processing it may be applying (if it has 'sharpness', actually deliberately slightly softening the image may help).
I use a 28" viewsonic PC monitor for gaming, and the PS3/360 look pretty ropey at times, but you get used to it, if I take either console to the front room on a mid range Toshiba 46" LCD, they immediately look much better, mainly viewing distance adds some smoothing, but the TV's processing is of a higher standard, and that also helps..
I hear what the OP is saying, and agree with some of the comments, end of the day, it's not a major issue, Halo Reach is a great game, the graphics aren't half bad in a lot of places, with good texture detail and reasonable lighting effects, but the aliasing and slightly low res do mean pixel peeping will end in disappointment.
