At What resolution is this game gonna run?

[shaka-de-virgo]

xbox 360 can handle 1080p, all of their games run at 640p even though microsoft lies and tells you its in 720p look at halo 3.

[gta-guru]

considering the game was made for 720p, i'll choose that

[SynTerro]

If you want it in higher resolution, wait for the PC version.

1080p is higher than standard monitors go (1680x1050)

[shred_guitar]

720. For Xbox 360, 480i......Lol, just kidding. I have both consoles so I'm not a fanboy. I think I'll go start a brand new topic on which system I should get the game for....also just joking. Supposedly God of War 3 is going to be in full 1080p...so that is something to look forward to.

1080i on my 360.

You do realise Microsoft don't make their own games right? Bungie lied about Halo 3, not MS.

first of all, im not much of a smart guy when it comes to HD settings n all that jazz so dont flame me.

 

Im an xbox360 owner n my freind says 1080 looks the best. wuts the difference between 1080p and all the other ones? And does 1080p really look the best? or does that depend on wut game yer playing? I ussualy play games like halo3 n call of duty four, n of course GTA4 wen it comes out. If a game says it runs on a certain cetting like 720p or somthing on the back of the box wut exactly does that mean?

 

Thanx

Yeah but GTA IV is only 720p on console. 1680x1050 is not far from Full HD, and if you want you can go higher like 1920x1200 or even 2560x1600 on good PC screens to the price of a Full HDTV.

 

Here i will show you how big resolution there is available to PC.

Resolutions

The image was to wide for this forum.

 

PC wide screens is mostly 16:10, HDTVs are 16:9

1080p is the best picture available at this point in time, but you need an HD tv and the proper cables to take advantage of it. 720p for a game is pretty standard at this point and it looks GREAT, people are just complaining over nothing. Uncharted is "only" in 720 and it is absolutely jaw dropping. The graphics rely just as heavily on the design aspect as the numbers to make them truely next gen. So stop worrying if it's going to be 1080p or not and start looking at how they took advantage of the potential they had within the restraints of all that the game offers. 720 is going to look amazing, especially compared to the standard def. of previous consoles.

exactly, my graphics card supports 2560x1600 but my monitor isn't good enough to get that display

[MaxPowers87]

720p is sufficient.. HDTV is broadcasted in 720p... 1080p is simply overkill at this point.

[Grand Theft Auto Dude]

Damn..

Were you hoping for 1080p?? No such game exists. There arent even games running at 1080i yet, so forget the p guy. Sorry to burst yuor bubble. For some reason MS thinks that 720p is HD, but it aint. Thats DVD quality, NOT HD quality.

 

False advertising if you ask me when they say HD!HD!HD!, just to get you to buy the game. bastards.

Theres a bunch of games that run on 1080p O.o

Thats what they tell you. Those game arent true 1080p. You guys are idiots if you think there are games running at 1080p, sorry. Keep believing what they tell you!

And how are they not "True HD"? You know nothing about all this, do you?

You are a loser big chap. A complete loser.

 

DVD is 480p. HD is 720p plus.

 

Full HD is 1080p.

 

And yes GTA IV will run at 1080p, with 30fps confirmed.

 

For the loser (coons2k4) and others who are gonna comment me back its an upscaled 1080p from 720p. But yes its 1080p.

 

GT 5 Prologue runs at 1080p 60FPS. Running linux on the PS3 and extracted screen caps actually proves the game is running at 1080p, then again you probably don't own a copy of GT 5 Prologue never mind a PS3. And yes games run at 1080p such as GT 5.

Your a complete tool, Virtua Tennis 3 runs at native 1080p, it was the first game to do so! There are only one or 2 others on the 360. Whoever said 720p is DVD is an idiot! How can we have had storage capable of storing HD about 5 year's before we even had HDTV's! GTA 4 as stated alot, will be native 720p! No idea what the hype is around 1080p, to get the benefit of 1080p over 720p you would have to sit alot closer to your tv, or in turn have a extremely big tv!

 

 

 

[NewImproved]

It will definately run at about 720p im almost certain of that, Unless you have the right adapters and the right ACI

i wouldnt know but thats what you would need but i doubt in this game with quite poor graphics

[YukiEiri]

What are you talking about?!

 

My monitor (HP LP2065) has native resolution of 1600x1200

 

[benny profane]

just to clarify, there only one TRUE HD, everything else is known as "false hd", "half hd" or "half-assed hd".

true HD looks and sounds like this:

 

Mysteries Remain

 

The mysteries remain,

I keep the same

cycle of seed-time

and of sun and rain;

Demeter in the grass,

I multiply,

renew and bless

Bacchus in the vine;

I hold the law,

I keep the mysteries true,

the first of these

to name the living, dead;

I am the wine and bread.

 

I keep the law,

I hold the mysteries true,

I am the vine,

the branches, you,

and you.

 

For FULL HD, go here

[Jimmarn]

1080i on my 360.

1080i sucks

[Silent-Hill]

There is no satisfying some of you guys.Is there? Since when was GTA about graphics.720p is good enough for GTA and it'll look great. Stop worrying.

[3igRaw3]

ive got a monitor hooked up to my ps3....

 

plenty of games have 1080p....

 

i play all my games on 1080p.... whether upscaled or native

hey but isnt it true that you cannot run 720p on a regular non-hd TV? that means that it still is considered HD at least somewhat cuz I know most old TV's run 420 res so I think this will definetly be a crisper and better looking.

[DeeperRed]

GTAIV on PC

 

3,840 x 2,400

 

FTW!!!!

 

but seriously graphics seriousy should be the least concern.

720p is HD, dumbass.

[LongDarkBlues]

Sorry guys, but just because the box says it plays on a 1080p TV doesn't mean the game is 1080p - almost all your games are native 720p resolution. DVD movies, by the way, are 480p. Also, 1080i is terrible - it looks much worse than 720p. I've also heard that it's particularly bad for games - lots of ghosting because of it's slow refresh rate.

[rasomaso]

Btw for those of you who think that today PC monitors have some big resolution, Japanese are developing UHDTV (Ultra High Definition Television) and it should be out in 2015, featuring 7680x4320 pixels. Just a curiosity.

[Darrel]

There is nothing wrong with 720p. If you have for example a 30" TV and it was running at 1080p there wouldn't be much different in the exact same TV running at 720p.

what aloud of sh*t corse games run on 1080p i play cod4 and thats 1080p and it goes like this 570p 1080i 720p 1080p so 720p is better than 1080i so where still gettin a realy good looking game think 570p is one of the resolutions

Oh the humanity, this type of post needs to die. I suppose I'm not helping with the bumpage.

 

Anyway, like a few posters above me pointed out, you WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DETECT changes from 720p to 1080p by the naked eye for the most part. Now, of course there are videophiles who will be able to detect the differences, but it really is a very moot point considering 720p and 1080i look gorgeous still and it won't make a difference.

 

It IS a marketing ploy and "full HD" is very very very much all marketing. There are many other components that make a much bigger difference when considering an HDTV (contrast ratio for plasma, etc.). This is a much more important stat to look for when considering an HD tv as compared to choosing between a "full HDTV" and one that only goes up to 1080i.

 

But, alas, many will disagree with me because they are a product of the marketing machine and fail to do their own research. *Sigh*.

 

After all, look at the name brand of medications that are over the counter - the generic have the exact same active ingredient (ibuprofen as an example in Advil). Yet, the general public being a herd and slave to marketing machines will think "hmm, I need ibuprofen for pain relief so I will get Advil because it's the best"

 

and end up paying almost double in some cases....pity

 

This game will look amazing on 720p. Wouldn't notice a difference if it were on 1080p native. But as long as you guys believe yourself and it makes you feel better, more power to you.
