Some will notice an increase in resolution more than others, but unless everyone magically starts getting bigger living areas and buy 60 inch TVs, or sitting closer to their TVs for some reason, console gaming resolution has definitely hit a wall. |
I love how they are trying to pass the resolution off as something unimportant. In the last gen a few lines of pixels were very important, now that the resolution difference is 56% at the minimum and in a case %125, it is insignificant. I assume they don't change the resolution in Youtube either, 360p is more than enough.
The resolution being the only difference (and the framerate) will be for the multiplat games. Killzone effortlessly obliterates the competition while being in 1080p. Imagine if it was 720p, the graphics produced with those resources would be noticable even for the visually impaired people.
