| scottie said: @ sc - so you're asking for the less graphically intensive games to be more graphically intensive? If a developer is too lazy to make a decent 480p game, then they'll be way too lazy to optimise the code enough for it to be playable in 720p. But we're stealing garnett's thread, so if you want to keep discussing this then start a new thread @ Garnett. I find it hard to answer your question. The theoretical you pose is just so unrealistic that it makes it hard for me to consider. In this theoretical world, is Wii Sports HD any good? |
No, I wasn't arguing about it. I prefer 480p games with the Wii's specs. From what I gathered from rckrz6's post he was just saying it is possible to have 720p, not that is was a benefit. I would argue though that some games look better with a higher resolution even if some other aspects of the graphics are toned down, or the framerate is decreased than they did in 480p. I would also argue that a lesser graphically intensive game doesn't always mean a lazy developer, some games just don't use as much power with the art direction they are intended for, so the extra power could be used for the higher resolution making the picture more sharp. I agree though, any other discussion should be relevant to the original topic of this thread.
