This certainly adds gas for the flame... Someone said 90 pixels above.... someone 1000... Apparently people don't understand resolution. A Pixel is a Picture Element. Resoultion is calculated just like area -- LengthxWidth or horizontal times vertical.

So, IF TRUE, the 360 version would be running 1280x720 or a total of 921,600 pixels on screen. Again, IF TRUE, and the PS3 version was at 1120x630 or 705,600 pixels. Thats roughly 25% more pixels on screen and would generally be considered a good thing.

The reality is, though, that a very high frame rate, 4X or 8X AA, and every post-processing trick known to man will more than compensate for a lower resolution and still blow away the higher resolution if it cannot pull off all the  same effects. I've seen 640x480 images that smoked 1024x768 images because of processing...

Again, IF TRUE, there is a small hint of irony here if we look at the HDDVD vs. BLU-RAY argument... 1080P was always touted as better because of the higher resolution. Now, if it goes the other way around here oh boy, the shitstorm will cometh.
