Activision's CoD3 and THP8 not hitting 720p
Posted by XanTium | November 13 21:21 EST
 
From joystiq.com:
[QUOTE]
Someone call Activision and let 'em know that 720p means 1280x720, please. Games-Aktuell, a German gaming outlet, has discovered that Call of Duty 3 and Tony Hawk's Project 8 are not running at a 720p high-def resolution.

When the tests were run, CoD3 was shown to be running at 1040x620 pixels and THP8 at 1040x584 pixels. The pixel drop reflects a resolution drop of 30% and 34%, respectively. The resolution drop could be assumed to help keep framerates up, but THP8 reportedly has framerate problems. So what's up?
[/QUOTE]

Note: It's not the first time we see this happen on the 360 ... PGR3 is known to run sub-720p (1280x600) too.

I can second this article. I was playing COD3 on 4 player split screen on a 120'' wall projected image on a 720P native Sanyo Z3 Home Theatre Projector and it looked like crap. I mean, it was about as hard to see what u were doing as playing halo2 on a 13'' tv back in the day. And belive me this projector rocks on every other game, so it wasnt its fault.

One more thing..

Wonder if Sony paid them to bring down the resolution/quality of the game and they will fully support the 720p on the PS3 so they think the ps3 is more superior! tongue.gif

Sorry, just an idea. laugh.gif

I wonder what the PS3's will run at...

Resolution being sub-720p on a next gen console is kind of pathetic...if games that are as graphics intensive as Gears of War can run in 720p, then why not these two?

PS3 vs. Xbox 360 Comparison HD [1280x720]

Tony Hawk 8
http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=...wmv&pl=game

Identical but PS3 has much worse framerate

Check IGN and Gamespot reviews:
"It's certainly disappointing that the PlayStation 3 is so far behind the Xbox 360 game. Framerate issues are apparent at every other turn, and the lack of online play really hurts. Project 8 is a worthy game to pick up, just preferably not on this system."


Tiger Woods
http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=...wmv&pl=game

PS3 version has worse some trees made of 2 textures in X shape.

THE TREES ON PS3 VERSION ARE MADE FROM 2 TEXTURES!!!! IN X SHAPE!
WHAT A PAST GEN!
PS3 is lacking GPU power to display farther trees LOL!

PS2.5! FTL!
