You can't go by the box.
MS started labeling all of its Xbox games as 720p/1080i/1080p after a firmware update automatically upscaled all content to 1080p. To most, this implies the games are "1080p" when it really only refers to the HDTV display modes the games are compatible with.
Halo 3 as an example, is natively rendered at 1152x640 but clearly marked "720p/1080i/1080p"
But if you can't notice the difference between a 640p, a 720p, a 1080i (which many assume/assert looks "as good as 1080p") or 1080p signal, there's really no point in quibbling over it anyway even if it makes you feel like are or aren't getting your pixel's worth out of your games.
