Sorry. I can see the difference in a 40' screen at more than 2m. It's a pretty reasonably sized TV and probably the smallest anyone usually buys (except 32' because they lack room for a bigger set). I have a PS3, where most games are 720p and a PS4, where most games are 1080p, hooked to the same TV, with 2 identical HDMI cables (Monster ones, good quality). I don't have to look close to see the jaggies on the picture.

If you are talking about a 22' TV, something that isn't common because 32'+ TVs have good prices, I've previously played in one and it's terrible to see anything at a distance, so even playing becomes a bad experience. In a normal sized TV (32', 40') at a decent distance (2-3m), anyone who is 20/20 can see the difference because it's clear as water. Even on my PC, with a 22' monitor and sitting at 1.5M, it's easily noticeable.

Saying that you can't spot the difference between 720p to 1080p in these conditions is as ridiculous as saying that you can't differentiate 30 to 60fps. Anyone with a normal vision can.


All i can read in your argument is: I have a huge ass TV so i am ok with them catering to me.

Very well, that is your opinion and you are entitled to it. Dont pass it like its something everyone should agree with and should devalue the importance of FPS in gameplay and performance of a game, something that every gamer regardless of TV can benefit from.
