Ground Control 2 was/is fun. I was playing it for a while on hdtv. Although it sort of an RTS it lets you pause so i was able to use a gamepad. Of course mouse/keyboard would be best. You can also increase font sizes within game so text is readable. It has a good story with some cool cinematics and a demo is available.

UT 2004 would be mindless fun on hdtv and you could run botmatches with slomo to use a gamepad (for xbox effect).

Call of Duty would also be fun.

jh01bk : thanks for the info about nfs underground, i did not know that had been hacked. I'll have to try that.

Any quake3 engine game is good. Medal of honour, soldier of fortune II, etc. (of course a nice wireless keyboard and mouse would be necessary for these in the living room). I also like the Grand Theft Auto (3 and VC) since you can play them with a controller, which is good for tv playing. Like racing? Try Need for speed underground or Midnight Club II. They both support WS right outta the box (and also fit your specs). It's a pity about EA sports games not supporting widescreen. Hopefully they correct that with NHL 2005, but I'm not holding my breath. Enjoy it, you bastard with your 50' tv .... geez ... I wish I had one! :D
