Your native 1080p TV, does it have options for any other resolutions within it's settings?

If your signal says 720p then that is what you are viewing. Though the capabilities of the TV to display 1080p natively is there you are still viewing at 720p.

I have searched the crap out of this subject and still see no automatic upscaling of input signals to 1080p on TVs. It all has to do with native media resolution and then settings per TV and system. So yes this tri...

Wrong again SOP. Just because a TV supports 1080P does not mean that every resolution beneath it will work too. As an example: I have a few HD TV's and one of my earlier wide screens does not support. 720P. (yes, odd but it was early in HD tech and I figured that I only needed the 2 resolutions... who would use the middle 720P as the standard? haha)

If I have all my 3 settings for HD checked on my system (as supported) then when I put in a game that is 720P native it will NOT a...

I would add Shenmue II for the Dreamcast. And I would not add any game that can be played on an upgraded system. i.e. anything XBox that can be played on the XBox360 or PS1/PS2 that can be played on the PS3. Companies aren't loosing as much when doing this because they can make sales if the game is good enough to purchase and play on the updated system.

Doubled? Is that over the whole system or attach rate? I doubt the attach rate has doubled. And I would expect the whole system rate to double with the increase in PS3 sales throughout the year. And where are your numbers for this?

I think a better comparison would be from the VHS jump to the Laser Disk. As we all have seen, that Laser Disk thing didn't fair too well. Yes a lot of people actually bought the Laser Disk, but it was replaced soon with the DVD. People aren't ready for Bluray... and when they are ready to upgrade, a newer better format will already be ready to jump in. Bluray is not the future... Bluray is the Laser Disk of our time. Sorry... it is already obsolete in the minds of tech nerds. Google some fin...

That would end Sony's investment in DVD sales. No win. Not enough Bluray owners to make it profitable. But the other film companies would love for them to do some stupid crap like that. lol

I just picked up 15 DVD movies in the past 2 weeks. So what was the point again?

No it will not automatically upscale if you have all settings ticked. It will run the media at the native resolution for the media.

You are clueless, you use double negatives to try and make a point. And you make me laugh... I bet you work at Kmart in the video section. lol

If your TV has the capabilities to run all resolutions then it will choose the native resolution. If your TV is set so that it only will display at 1080P then if it WILL upscale the video so that it plays at that reslotion. Basically multiplying pixels to fill holes that would otherwise not exist due to the resolution of the actual media...

I would not say that PS3 has no AAA titles, but they do have fewer choices in good games.

The 360 with it's larger attach rate will out sell the PS3 by a larger margin in the end. Currently the 360 buyers are 1. Having difficulty getting copies and 2. They are currently still playing NUMEROUS games they already have.

They are not in that "hunger" stage that the PS3 owners are at. If you don't have many great titles then you are going to put the masses i...

No... he had also commented that you couldn't tell where you were in the marketplace once you entered an area. And that you couldn't access the marketplace from within a game or any other application. you had to shut down what you were doing to purchase content. And a few other things... but nobody has really read the whole article I guess???

This article is comparing the store and the marketplace. Not the online gaming. Read the article....

Both are free on each system.

What are you talking about 5 years??? XBox Live was better then PSN even when it first came out. PSN still hasn't reeached XBox Lives first iteration of quality.

And if we are talking next generation systems, then XBox Live has been superb since day one. A seamless transition from old system to new.

Nothing has came close to rivaling it.. and PSN is still talking about the future. When they start talking about what they have now, then I might listen. But they c...

So far just 3 fanboys who are lieing to themselves and others.

The basic argument would be... IF you owned both systems the VAST majority of owners would purchase the game for XBox360 over their PS3 system.

Why would you not? It has more options... simple.

6558d ago 3 agree2 disagreeView comment

Once again... another article talking about how good something WILL be in the future for Sony. Yet I never see any results... always just more of... "wait and see","it's going to be great". If you haven't tried the experience of Live then you are just blowing smoke. You don't know what you are missing because you have never had it. And never will... sorry.

Well I'm off to play my demo game.

That was 7 million units sold, not 7 million on-line. They claimed they didn't have the count on the PS3 due to a different numbering system. Only point given that the count was "monstrously huge". The "even more on other systems" gramatically states that the total count is more then what just the XBox 360 numbers total, due to online PS3 and PC users.

Once again: THEY HAD NO FIGURES FOR THE PS3 AND PC COUNT!!! If they DID then they would have lead with a b...

7. Frank West (Dead Rising)(special summon Zombie attack)
8. Raam (and his bats)
