I wasn't relying on anything MS were saying, but rather doing the rounds on the internet. However after I posted about GoW, I had noticed that it is upscaled from 720p to the resolution your TV supports (1080p in my case anyway). Not that I am really complaing as it still looks the business.

Still the point still remains that the console is still capable of outputting and playing games in a native 1080p mode. Besides this, it would appear that for all of the claims from Sony, their original bout of releases were all 480p.

Either way, I still really have no inclination to buy a PS3 currently. I had orignally wanted to get one, but the launch price of £600 or so put paid to that, coupled with a lack of titles that I actually wanted to get. Even now there are not many games on the PS3 I would actually want to get over what I can already buy on the 360.

To put that into perspective, I had a PS1 and PS2 and loved a lot of titles for both machines. The PS3 just didn't have the same impact IMO.

The 360 is quite able to output 1080p natively and in fact many games (Gears of War and VT3 being two examples off the top of my head) do this anyway. Sorry Steve, but Gears of War is only 720p. Virtua Tennis 3 is technically a simple game (small predictable environment, not many assets to deal with), both the PS3 and 360 versions are 1080p with AA (but no advanced lighting). One of them is just a straight port, they are as good as identical (like for example New Zealand Story on Amiga and Atari ST). I know Microsoft's marketing is misleading and confusing, but what I state is true.

Both consoles are ROPs limited i.e. 8 ROPs.
