@MikeB: 1280x1080 or 1440x1080 are not 1080p, even though they have 1,080 horizontal lines.  Only 1920x1080 is 1080p.

 

The same as always, yes they are 1080p resolution like there are various 480p resolutions. This has been talked about to death and technically I am right like I pointed out to some people.

 

Source?  I see the resolutions epsilon72 listed as 1080i resolutions while the 1080p standard is 1920x1080.

I give that post a 9.4.

He's right.  1080p simply means that there are 1080 horizontal lines being displayed progressively. 

Polyphony Digital used this trick with GT5P.  They used 1440x1080, I believe, in 16:9 ratio, and then used software to scale the resolution vertically to 1920x1080.
