Forums - Gaming Discussion - 1080p & 30 fps vs 720p & 60 fps

 

1080p & 30 fps or 720p & 60 fps?

1080p with 30 fps 116 50.22%
 
720p with 60 fps 115 49.78%
 
Total:231

Some say 30fps is fine in some genres but even if that's the case why are you satisfied with fine? 900p and 720p is fine for HD gaming and yet all I hear is 1080p herp derp. Ha double standards never get old.



Around the Network

If it never dips below 30fps then 1080p. If it does, neither.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

many genres work absolutely fine with (constant) 30fps and profit from the higher picture clarity of 1080p, yet for heavily reaction or timing reliant games 60fps definitely is an improvement and should be the main focus in their development

This.

I think the game looks good and has a solid presentation. More importantly, it's fun as heck to play.

720p and 60fps for FPS and Racers, 1080p and 30fps for all others.



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

Not trying to justify or validate his article or anything. It was just that after reading it it got me thinking, that if these consoles couldnt do both, and I/we had to choose one or the other, what would be the preffered choice

EDIT: im really surprised by the poll results, its right down the middle (ed-edited as put the edit in wrong place)



The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.

That sounds more like shitty optimizing than anything. Killzone:SF looked a fair bit better than Thief and the story ran at 1080p/30-40fps with not problems :/



Depends on the case but in case I don't know the case, I'll happily take 60 FPS any day. Gameplay > graphics, and 720p is already good enough that the game'll look good.

I think you fail to realize that both options have to render the same amount of pixels per second, i.e. they're very much equally demanding. It's not about choosing your preference between a seemingly better option and a seemingly worse option, it's about choosing between two 'equal' options.

EDIT: For comparison, 720p@60 is 55296000 pixels per second, 1080p@30 is 62208000 pixels per second. 1080p@60 has exactly 12.5% more pixels per second so technically it is better but really, a 12.5% difference is neglible. For example, you'd have a really hard time noticing a 12.5% difference in resolution alone.

What gave it away? The title? This discussion about accepting a lower resolution because you can see it all of a sudden is utterly stupid. We're gamers, WE'RE THE FIRST ONES TO NOTICE.
