I use a PS3 for Blu-rays and a lot of my SD DVD upscaling, but it doesn't have a good way to "zoom" in on letterboxed DVDs like the GOUT. The Xbox 360 has several zoom and stretch(yuck) modes. I watched the entire GOUT last week with my 360, which is hooked to a 46" 1080p Samsung LCD with HDMI. It's quite watchable. It's grainy, but that doesn't bother me too much. You will see some "jaggies" at times, mostly due to zooming in on the non-anamorphic picture. It certainly doesn't look like any Blu-ray, HD-DVD, or even halfway decent upscaled DVD but like I said, it's watchable and quite enjoyable.
