I got 4 ps3 games on Saturday, Ridge racer 7 is the only one I’ve played so far, I also got burn out paradise, lair and enchanted arms (the later 3 are Christmas pressies from the wife so I only have ridge racer for now) Any way, ridge racer, which says on the box it renders at 1080 looks SWEET as! no pixel stepping or anything! Is that a game that’s actually rendering in 1080p native or is it using one of those fancy up scaling techniques you guys have been talking about to achieve what looks like a perfect 1080 signal?

I'm interested in knowing because If these ps3 games are using fancy up scaling technology to produce what actually looks like a 1080p signal then it will dictate which console I purchase my multiplatform games on. For example, assassins creed on 360 is full of pixel stepping when it’s up scaling, does it do that on ps3 too? Or does it use some fancy method of producing an image that could be easily mistaken for native 1080p? How many ps3 games actually make use of these fancy up scaling concepts?



If at first you don't succeed, you fail
