It wouldn't, cause the crispness/image quality of the game running with or without the black bars is exactly the same. without the black bars it would be the exact same picture quality, just set to fill the entire image.

hard to explain/Sounds crazy i know but 1920x800 with black bars @ 4x MSAA >>> 1080p less AA

Ah, I understand now. (obvious now that I really think about it) 1920x800 is not 800p.

What is the point/appeal of the black lines though? Just to make the horizontal field of view larger?

They want it to be a "cinematic experience" or some shit :P

It's strictly for performance. It's a custom resolution, the tv may be displaying all 1080 Lines, but the ps4 is not. They could do a 1920x 200 if they want to, and have huge black bars, and maintain the clarity without stretching the image. Let's be real here.... If they could, they would fill the screen. The game looks good, so they obviously are making compromises in screen res. and to prevent it from getting blurred further by stretching the image (upscaling) they maintain a 1 to 1 pixel display this way. I think it's smart. But again, if they could fill the entire screen at 1920x1080 they'd have done it. Let's not fool ourselves here, it wouldn't be less cinematic, seriously..... Sigh.....
