Games that aren't rich in graphical detail maybe. For those full on games though waron is absolutely right, the 360 and PS3 both can't handle full 1080p without struggling when it comes to those cinematic kinda games. The 360 has it a little better off but the PS3's inferior GPU and lesser ammount of memory really makes it chugg. To sum it up though waron is right, neither the 360 or PS3 are powerful enough to handle truly spectacular visual treats at 1080p. Hell developers need to get 720p nailed first and we're even having to see upscaled resolutions to achieve that. The phrase 'Full HD' is nothing but a marketing line for some publishers these days. |
I already responded to this in my post above, but you also claim the PS3 has less memory than the 360, when both have 512mb. The graphics chips are about equal, and the processing power on PS3 is much higher. Not every game has to be 1080p, but a lot are. All Waron (who I'm noticing usually has 1-line comments to troll, but that's another topic) is saying is that there should be no HDMI output. Afterall, it's only needed for 1080 movie playback. Component also does 1080p, though, so techncally the PS2 and Xbox also had "1080p capability." That would mean so does the Wii. That doesn't mean you have to use it for every game. Again, 1080p isn't some feature that had to be added, it's merely an optional resolution available because of the hardware power. It's not something Sony and Microsoft could take away. It's just a pointless statement from Waron. Edit: It's neither something that was "given" nor something that is "useless." His 1-line statement is false in 2 ways.
