    1080I and P are the same resolution, same number of pixels.

    So, you believe less pixels was the better picture? And that now, its hard to tell the difference in number of pixels? ABC and Fox channels have been running 720 as opposed to CBS running 1080 forever.

    You don't see why this might be a bad test? Whats the native resolution of the monitor? There is a reason people drop 500 bucks on video scalers. I have never stated that there are no differences between 720 and 1080 resolution, but people are blowing this way out of proportion, so they can...

    Have you ever heard anyone comment how HD sports on Fox or ESPN are inferior to sports on CBS? Me either. This whole resolution thing is such bullshit.

    Crying about a neg? Classy, and makes me respect your position more. I too believe there are going to be differences in the next generation and that doesn't change the fact you are clueless when you say this article is a work of fiction. Its pretty clear your are clueless, blind to reality, or...

    What hardware balance actually means for game creators For anyone who may still be on the fence or are still concerned by the tech spec hype going around, I think this is a good read. Hell, its just a good read.

    Resolution is a common denominator, but the architecture of the consoles is I'd say is wildly different. Pure processing power is most prominent when at full load, and again, all other things are equal. You are absolutely right, When dealing with mirrored products you grab the one that is...

    Fuck me for trying to have a grown up conversation. Really dude? If you could put down the koolaid for like 1 minute. Do you know how much of an idiot you sound like when you make a grand sweeping statement like this and are completely wrong? Anyone remember that voice in the dark talking about...

    Hmm did you read the article you linked? Because its pretty much the same thing. FPS and Refresh is directly related as it states in the article you linked. Tearing, stutter/lag especialy, are a function of refresh not matching the FPS being generated by the source. Gsync does it with the video...

    Hmm looks like I misspoke a bit on on-the-fly resolution changes, that's not entirely accurate, but this is the direct quote. HereIs an article linking G-sync by Nvidia to the xb1 claims regarding scaling /shrug. I agree that all they are, are claims at the moment. I know the ps4 fanboys have...

    Not sure either of us understands how this works. The way I see it, a developer sets a bottom floor frame rate, 60 fps lets say. They will determining that based on a lot of factors i would guess. 90% of the time the game is running 1080p or whatever, then during the course of the game you max...

    There has been a lot of talk about the comparative specs between xb1 and ps4, I do think if all you look at are technical specs, the ps4 comes out ahead. I think its clear from last generation, that doesn't translate to comming out on top. Everyone agrees that the games are whats going to...

    As a home theater installer for 6 years an an audio video integrator for 6 more, I fully understand and appreciate the differences between HD resolutions. Most people understand that what is happening on their displays is a combination of a lot of factors. Monitor quality, source resolution...

    No, I understand what's being said, and who is saying it. Why would you take the word of an anonymous voice on the internet, who while being right about reveals during E3, is still some anonymous dude on the internet. Why don't you take what John carmack, or the dude who developed resident evil...

    Does anyone still really buy this rumor? I can't tell if Sean is trying to convince himself or really believes an anonymous leak over 3 pretty universally respected developers that there is no practical difference between the 2 consoles. I know when I first heard about this I was thinking wtf...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    not at all predicated on stand your ground. My argument is valid regardless. I don't want your average neighborhood watch dude making decisions with a gun on his waist. I agree that a dude with a gun was being assaulted and thought he might die. No one knows if that was going to be the case...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    troll account, that's some funny stuff. Its a valid opinion to believe that regressing to the wild west days of vigilante justice that stand your ground promotes is a bad thing. Trolling would be to go on and on about how Zimmerman is guilty and should be in jail which I haven't proposed once...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    I think Watches are great, I don't believe its feasible to have a cop on every corner. But if Zimmerman does more watching, less policing, there is no assault charge, and trayvon ends up where he was supposed to be, his dad's girlfriends house.

    Justice for Zimmerman

    As the defense said, it didn't matter if his life was in danger, only that he thought he was in danger. I think of what my wife thinks of as danger, and what I think of as danger, and again I come to the conclusion that I don't want random people making life and death decisions when they are...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    Please, you guys love this. I've read the timeline yes. And I still do not believe that you should die for starting a scrap. I still find it frightening that the neighborhood watch is carrying guns and shooting unarmed people. I am not denying any of the facts that have been gone over ad nauseum...

    oh, I enjoy guns as much as he next person, probably more. Its bad deduction skills like you've demonstrated that I have a problem with. In response to some of the other replies, I admit I have not read every post in this thread. As has been said many times, no one really knows what happned that...

    Justice for Zimmerman

    The thing that upsets me most about this, is that Zimmerman was the arbiter of life and death and apparently that's A o.k. It makes me sick to think my children's life could be in the hands of a wannabe at some point. I think of the average person I know, and it makes me quesy to think that they...
