Forums - Sony - PlayStation Blog: "HAZE runs in 720p"

There was a lot of backlash of Haze running at 576p or something or other like that last week, when the demo came out but the PlayStation Blog has set the record straight.

"From some other comments I read, I wanted to clarify that the game runs at 720p resolution."  

This is a part of a Q and A on the game, you should read it!

Also, the game will have an install... No mention whether it's optional or mandatory, but it's probably mandatory.



Noone said it didn't run at 720, people said that it didn't render at 720. There is a difference.

If someone can come out and say... "Haze renders at 720p" I would be convinced. Otherwise it just sounds like corporate spin.



Tease.

I think Ubisoft made a statement about it running in 720p as well, but they didn't clarify if that is upscaled or not.

EDIT: Actually this may be the same as the one I heard about.



what the difference between runs and renders?



''Hadouken!''

Yeah, what is the difference?



GTAIV runs at 720p on both the PS3 and the Xbox360
GTAIV renders at 630p on the PS3 (Abouts) and the Xbox360 at 720p

Both statements are corect, the PS3 outputs 720p and the Xbox360 outputs 720p.



Tease.

Runs means that the display is showing it at that resolution and it might be upscaling from a lower resolution.

Renders means the game is actually outputting that resolution natively. 

Think of it this way:

You can run DVDs at 1080p on a PS3 because the unit upscales. If you want a rendered 1080p picture, you would have to buy a Blu-ray.

Ahh... Okay.  So HAZE runs at 576p, but it will be upscaled to a 720p on a 720p capable television?

I don't know what Haze renders at. I haven't really looked into it yet. In fact, this thread reminded me to log on and download the demo which is what I'm doing right now.
