not really grasping, i was seriously asking a question on how they captured the ps3 vid.
its more of a theory thing..

"It's not misleading as you state and the notion that they shouldn't even post comparison videos is idiotic. There are many graphical issues that people can observe from these comparison videos to make a purchasing decision that aren't affected at all by enabling Full RGB or Super White such as framerate issues or in the case of the Orange Box video the loading times. Therefore they do still serve a purpose and I can easily understand why they state the videos are there to help inform customers. "

i guess im an idiot according to you then.....

im guessing that you havent seen their comparison videos...

heres one
http://www.gametrailers.com/player/28006.html

and guess what GT's comment says


"Which system gets the graphical short end of the stick?"

thats right, they dont care about loading times and framerate issues.

fyi the ps3 version doesnt really look like that it actually looks exactly like the Xbox version(in my eyes atleast), i think this video is what sparked this whole ordeal in the first place.

 


 I have seen the comparison videos before including that AC one and you're right that they didn't speak at all about loading or framerate issues, the framerate issues was just a theoretical example and the loading time was based off of an Orange Box comparison video I saw of Portal.  The thing is though the 'washed out' look in that video is quite striking and easily noticable to anybody.  The only evidence I have been shown that enabling Full RGB can help with component inputs is ssj12's testimony that with his own eyes he sees 'a minor improvement'.  Therefore since they used component cables for both I have a hard time believing that the 360 version looking far better was due to the 360 enabling Full RGB with component cables and them not bothering to enable it for the PS3. 

If anybody can actually find evidence that component cables can utilize Full RGB for such a graphical advantage then I will gladly admit I was wrong but everything from Sony's PS3 manual to all forum threads I can find state otherwise. 


so you agree that my comments stand then? (bottom quote)
since GT talked nothing about framerate issues and loading times and the video was in no way accurately informative.
and customers dont need to pay the premium $10,250 to be able to use HDMI cables.
which would mean GT should not hold useless half assed comparison videos.....

"We create them so that people who own both systems can be a little more informed on which version to buy."

yeah those are all lies then..
they claim that its to inform but a lot of people are using HDMI cable especially the ones who visit their site.

"We don't create these videos for the fanboys. That's not the point. "

if they know that they cant capture the videos using HDMI then why release comparison vids at all? 
the only reason they would release half assed comparison videos is to incite fanboy wars, not inform the people.
