Well... That is great and all, but both systems upscale to 1080p, so you should actually be comparing a 720p native upscaled to 1080p to a 1080p native  picture if you actually wanted to see the difference people will be facing.  Truth is, most people cant tell the difference between an upscaled image and a native image, so personally I dont see resolution as that big of a deal.

That's what I did with Crysis2 today, switch between resolutions in windowed mode, take screenhot, resample the native res picture to 1080p

Rendered at 720p, 900p and 1080p native, all displayed as it would look on 1080p


Ofcourse many people have never seen a native resolution picture coming out of a console. Many tv's have overscan or use a 1366x768 panel. Setting an 1080p LCD screen to dot by dot mode with a native 1080p picture simply looks much better.
