Why do people feel the need to always troll the 360 when FF13 is even mentioned?

I do really think it's important for a lot of Sony fans to have this be better on their system. Or for it to just be bad, or "gimped" or something that downplays the fact that it's no longer an exclusive. The same reason that Versus is the most sought after game for so many people, and they are looking forward to it "way more" than 13 even though we know next to nothing about it. I say let them have it, it's a nice balm to the burn that sqeenix caused when they went multi-plat. Just take it with a grain of salt and understand that this actually really bothered some people, and it's hurt their experience with the game.

Full HD is 720p. 1080p is just a higher HD resolution, in the same way 480p is a higher SD resolution than 360p, etc.

And yes, many of your favorite so-called HD games don't actually run in HD. Neither of the Modern Warfare games run in HD. Nor does Halo 3 or Halo 3 ODST.

Not true 720p is HD but not Full HD, Full HD is 1080p.. Not sure why you're saying 720p is Full HD.

And don't tell me I've just been sucked in by marketing.

You have been. "Full HD" or "True HD" is just some bullshit Sony made up. HD is HD. For that matter HD is really bullshit, but regardless once you go over the "HD barrier" you're in HD. If 1080p was full HD what's that make 2560 X 1600? Super mega special awesome definition? No, because Sony doesn't make any products that support it so they haven't invented any bullshit names for it yet. HD is HD. We can't create a new name for every resolution step within it.

2560x1600 has the standard designation of WQXGA (Widescreen Quad Extended Graphics Array).

And yes, industry standards have to label the distinctions between video broadcast standards of 720p or 1080p due to the bandwidth differences of almost 2:1.

Labeling a TV "Full HD" is marketing. The difference between a 1920x1080 (HD 1080) signal/resolution and 1280x720 (HD 720) signal/resolution however, is not marketing. They're two separate standards. Full HD is the industry standard designation for 1920x1080.

Marketing or not it's still bullshit. Assigning a stupid advertising name to every resolution is a ridiculous trend that started with Sony, and yes, they are the ones who coined the term "full HD" and 1080p existed long before that term. These stupid terms are what allowed 1440p to take on the name Extreme Definition. Someone should be shot for starting this trend.



^^or maybe his PS3 came with a gimped PS3 controller with no rumble and he wants to play with one that runbles? o_O.

360 version for me, unless the reviews come out and say it looks like a NES game. Otherwise, controller preference and acheivements >>>>>> ZOMG GRAPHICZ!

You are getting the gimped version because of controller preference and achivements??........hilarious excuse.

So, what would be a good reason? And I have to say since you're using "gimped" and "excuse" in this sentence, it's hard to take you very seriously. 
 



^^ I know how that feels, my 360 came with the gimped controller with a really bad dpad. >_>

I can relate with commonman, I once rented a crap PS3 port for trophies. But the fact that I could have been playing a far better looking game ate me up.

People should play it on whatever system they prefer. If you don't prefer a system/controller, then PS3 seems the way to go.

A lot of people got Bayonetta for the PS3, too, and some of them probably owned 360's. It happens.

It's just an abbreviated way of designating 1920x1080. The general public knows this even if they don't know the exact differences in resolution.

It's simpler than the standard nomenclature designations for monitor resolutions, making it ideal for general consumers. Better than SXGA+, QXGA+, WSXGA+, UXGA, WUXGA, etc.

Unless you work in video, you'd need a chart to know what all those designations mean.

If standard TV displays introduce a new standard, they have to come up with something a bit more easily recognizable than say "Widescreen Quad Extended Graphics Array" for the general consumer.

No really.. 1080 progressive, or better yet, interlaced, is the definition of Full HD. Its not made up by Sony. Just google Full HD and see for yourself.

 



Is there a point to this? I'd like to see one person who owns both consoles who will be getting the 360 version. It's not like it uses xbox live or anything. So you are basically only asking who here has onlyl a 360. But does it matter?

Discussion on the resolution of the 360 version is considered trolling? When did everyone become so sensitive. 

Read the thread then come back and say that....
