Forums - Gaming - Sony: Native 1080p allows you to “be a better gamer”

Yes and no... Depends on the game really

From my understanding... more pixels = less aa needed = less blur = more sharper images but with less jagged edges which does help but it won't make you from being a skanky noob to a wondrous pro by any means

Unless you got the DS4 and 1080p.

Lol thats BS.

I guess they mean that enemies will look alot more clearer in the distance. A game rendered in 1080p with the enemy at distance of 300m will look alot more clearer and less blurrier than a game rendered in 720p so that players will be able to discern objects and enemies at a farther distance.


Yeah, cause that's really important for 99 % of the games......seriously, this is just marketing...nothing more.



Two more weeks and I will be playing games in the glory of 1080p! Bring on the fog!



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

This is more of a game design issue.

Yes, it is more constraining to have to design a game that intends to use greater draw distances and smaller details with lower native render resolutions. But this is a constraint that developers can and have worked around for years.

I've played more than my share of games on consoles where I really wish the resolution was higher so that distant objects were sharper, hence my move to PC gaming for many of said games. I won't say playing at higher resolutions made me a better gamer, which is a pretty ridiculous claim, but it did make playing them a bit easier, just as playing FPS games with a quality KB/Mouse set up is easier.

For games where this isn't an issue (draw distances, small details, etc.) I'll still take 1080p over 720p any day of the week. That's a no-brainer. Statements that 720p is "okay" or "good enough" or that 1080p isn't a significant difference are just as ridiculous as statements claiming playing at higher resolutions make you a better gamer.

oh man, i cannot wait for that COD 720p on PS4 rumor to hit VGChartz.

If confirmed, so much crow.



lol now this is hilarious... Love when Sony is doing that, they got a bit of momentum and starts to say stupid things like that...



They are clearly right. The quantity and quality of the pixels are very important for you to be a better gamer. Hardcore players need to use the most pixels to get the advantage in the field, if not you are toast.

It will even make your dick bigger! Just wait, soon all these HK-spam mails will offer you PS4 instead of viiiaaagrraa and ciaaaalliiiis.

how is that possible is the game is already released at 1080p and confirmed by every reviewer?

do you mean they will patch it to run at 720p? I think that would violate advertising all over the world so they wouldnt do that.
