While it doesn't matter much for the visual quality, it's still pretty ridiculous. People keep touting that the Wii sucks because of the lower resolution, yet many high profile PS360 games render at similar resolution. Pretty ironic.

More pointless crap that fanboys can bicker over. Who gives a fuck.

Like i said before... I am getting this game anyway...

I don't care, I'm sure the game (and the graphics) will be great.

This game requires high frame-rate, detailed graphics are nice to have but resolution has been proven to be over-rated in this generation.

I disagree - there's a visible difference (at least for me) between psuedo-HD games and games that really do run in 1280x720.

That's not to say that it will be a bad game though.  It just shows that Sony & MS over-promised with regards to what their consoles would be. 

Really? I'm not saying you're lying or anything, but it's the first time I hear anyone saying that. What games did you notice that on? 

Also, what TV to you have and at what distance do you sit from it?

 Yeah, I think you are on to something there. It would be on thing if average developers were resorting to having their games render at a less than HD resolution, but it seems that even the more technically inclined devs are having issues getting their games to run at a 720P or better.

Meh...I am getting it in less then an hour when my roommate comes home from work. Unless my eyes are sore from the horrible visuals...I don't see the point of this thread as game play is the meat and bones of Ninja Gaiden. None of the reviews I've read were complaining about the visuals so I doubt this will be the case...

 That image is such bullshit and you know it, the game looks 100x better then that retarded image you posted.

 Instead of complaing you should have posted a better image.
