1080i is not technically HD, and 480p is not HD

How is it not ?explain

1080 i is hd.

hd is 720p, 1080 i, 1080 p

full hd - 1080 p

progressive scan  - 480 p, 576 p

so gt4 is hd. Didn´t know GT4 was 1080 i.

I see So the PS2 could 1080i which is HD but why didn't it do 720p, and 1080p

I don´t know the answer. Ps2 could do 480 p easily. Maybe 1080i was the limit of ps2´s power ( or a upscalling like blu ray upgrading dvd to 720 or 1080p).

quality of image 1080 p > 720 p > 1080 i.

So, ps2 could do 1080 i, but was no powerfull enough to get 720p or 1080p.

1080i is easier to render becouse it's in fact 540 lines while 720p is full 720 lines
