They should probably prioritise FPS over the resolution. 1080p over 720p will only make a obvious difference for around half the audience (those with TV's over 40"), below that its starts to look the same.

Frame rate however will change the experience for everyone

There's a huge differene between 1080p and 720p. I can easily see the differnce in my 20" monitor on Guild Wars 2.
I imagine the difference would be massive on a 40" HDTV.


But you're comparing a moniter which I'm sure you sit mere inches from, to a Tv which people sit many feat from. Of course it varies on peoples set ups (how far from the TV they are), but Frame rate has a universal value, resolution does not. 

Really it would be usefull consoles provided you choice between the 2 as is the case for PC, when the option for maxing everying is not available. 

Hopefully they don't offer that option. Let the devs have full control on how they want the game to look and run. We don't need to replicate this part of PC gaming.

I do sit close to the monitor, but the difference is OBVIOUS. I'm not counting pixels and I'm not zooming in to stuff. You can just tell the picture quality goes wayyy up. It's much more clear. The bigger the monitor/tv the more noticeable this change will be.  Doesn't matter that we're sitting further away since the TV is much bigger in size than a monitor.

I think you underestimate the difference between TV and monitor. A 40' Tv is twice the size of your monitor, but most people with 40' TVs probably sit 6x further from their TV then you do from your monitor. Anyways, its patially subjective...
