In any other context, there would be no difference. Nobody on earth would claim that something upscaled to 720p was running at 720p... except a PR person. It's a ridiculous claim to make, sort of like if Youtube claimed that clicking the "fullscreen" button on its videos "makes them run at the full resolution of your monitor!" But as soon as you're dealing with PR, you have to put on your bullshit goggles and focus in on any statements that could possibly have a less flattering meaning. So does he mean that the demo doesn't run at 720p because it's an early build, but the actual game does? Or does he mean that people have made a mistake in checking the demo, and it actually does render at 720p? Or is he making the utterly asinine claim that 576p upscaled to 720p "is" 720p? There's no way to tell, and it doesn't look like we're going to find out for sure until the game is released. |
More often then not it's a good idea to air on the side of asinine in such cases. In that case at worse your expectations are met, and if your wrong you get a good surprise.
