Akuma, I played Lair in 1080i and while I detested the game, it did look very good. Warhawk also supports 1080i and I'll be playing it early next week.
IGN is a good source for this stuff. On a game's front page, they list all supported resolutions.

I agree with this. Does suck for Rocketpig though who has to review the thing at it's top level to be honest.

Heh, PS2 games look fabulous on my TV. Kinda sad that the Heavenly Sword demo looked worse than God of War on my HDTV... Which brings me back to wanting to kick Sony in the nuts... |
i don't think this'll be a longterm issue, hopefully.
| epsilon72 said: Actually - (and I already know about 540p) the trick that is used on the PS3 to upscale the games to 1080i is to render the image in 960x1080 first, which can then be upscaled to 1080i/p easier than 1280x720 could. |
OK, thanks. I didn't know about the horizontal scaler thing. And, in a way, it makes sense, at least for analog signals it's a lot easier to scale horizontally. You're sure it's an RSX thing? Something like that might really be in hardware...
| DongHungLong said: If what you say is true about only needing 3~6 MB of V-Ram then its defiently possible. PS3 OS still reserves 24MB of the GDDR3 VRAM from the RSX. |
If they're not already using it for something else and/or can find a way to spare that. It also takes a little processing time (fill-rate mostly), so games that already have a choppy framerate will only get worse. It's hard to add something like this along the way. It'd be better to require developers put it in their own games, assisting them in doing that with through development tools. But some first party games are still coming out without it... so I dunno.
If Sony is willing to cut back on full reverse compatibility I see no reason why they should value fixing this anytime soon. You may argue that HD is more important to the Ps3 than reverse compatibility, but if you honestly think the PS2 library isn't one of the single largest assets to the PS3 then you're just dellusional.
Sign the Resident_Evil_5_Petition for a Wii release or Dark_Samus is going to come get you.

I hope not and I think that over time, most quality developers will support 1080i on their own.
Well, I hope they do. I really don't want to buy another TV for at least a year or so. :DÂ

Thanks, I didn't know that. I will still buy Heavenly Sword cause I have a 720p set at home.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
