I think a lot of PS3 owners that are buying PS4's have been playing native 720p games displayed at 720p and are now experiencing the quantum leap to 1080p.  A lot of Xbox 360/Wii U owners that are playing Xbox One/PS4 games are used to playing native 720p games that were upscaled to 1080p so they haven't noticed the difference.

The difference between 720p and 1080p is huge so I'm glad to know that I'm not "blind" like many on this site have been calling me lately!  I've just never played a 720p game at 720p until yesterday. 


Of course there is a difference, there is 125% more pixel information being displayed on screen.
Upscaling uses certain algorithms to guess some of that information (In a good scenario) and then apply certain filters to clean up the image.

Take the jump from 1080P to 1440P and you get another 77.7% increase in pixel information. Or take it a step farther to 1600P where it's 97.5%.
Or 4k which is a staggering 300%.

I don't care what review websites say, 720P and 1080P is last decade stuff and is very noticeable, just unfortunatly the majority of TV's around the world are only 720P, wish the industry moved onto 2k and 4k sooner rather than later.
